Lights up every time I use it. Even trying all the attachments it still works like when I first bought it. No problems here.

It's best to use butane that is clean, ie filtered at least 3 times is what I was told & I haven't had any issues. If it's filled & after a 1 minute of letting the gas settle it lights with a very low flame, then it could be the internal filter is already spent. If there is little or no spark at all at the front tip, then the piezo lighter could be shot. The lighters function by striking a small quartz crystal, which can become misaligned or damaged if the tool is dropped or subject to striking against a hard surface. Reseating the electrode can help if it is out of alignment.

No problem here. Start in low, one started set to desired heat. Seems to work well enough to set "heat shrink" tubing, my most common use. Have also used to strip paint from small parts.

Same here, I'm putting it in the lost causes. Never lights, or sometimes lights so poorly won't even heat.

I have used all of the different attachments while lighting on low with only one click. I have used my iron for over 100 hours now and it still always lights on the first try.

Same here. Also keeps turning on laser, killing the battery. I reached out to Tagua but no support or response. I did do some research which led me to work a channel for the weapon. I removed and reholstered BG 380 several hundred times and now somewhat easier to remove.

There is a tip that creates a torch, but I've tried to light it without a tip with limited success.There is also a tip that makes it a heat gun.

Hi Chris....Send it back and get refund. Product is really bad. They do not stay down when I charge my weapon or fire it (AR 15 pistol). JUNK!!! I am just glad I lost just a little money on these sight Best regards Steve

amazon asked me to answer this for some reason. are you cutting clean or dirty metal? have you made sure the cut head is assembled correctly? do you have a good ground? mine wont cut unless it has a clean spot to start on. and also clean air is crucial for it to cut good. how old is the plasma? ive cut about 150ft of 1/4 plate flawlessly with only changing the consumables a few times. not sure how plasma savvy you are this isnt a post to offend you just trying to help. hope this helps. also a bad ground on the power side could be causing a issue. are you gettn air flow when you push/pull the trigger?

It's still not fixed. Mine from Amazon last month is showing this clicking issue. The serial number is 16505**. Nothing looks resolved.

If the light is on and it's not heating... it sounds like the kill switch was triggered. If you bought it recently through Amazon, you still might be able to return it and get a refund. The warranty policy seemed like a raw deal, but you could also go that route and hope to have it back before the end of winter...

Howdy, Check the spring I wrote about in the review. When I had mine I was walking along and light quit working. When I took out the batteries and looked into the flashlight the spring that was soldered to the LED circuit board had the solder break and the spring was just laying there. I had to resolder the spring to the board. Has been working fine ever since. I hope this helps. I guess we should all just send them back and then maybe the manufacture would fix the soldering problem they have.

The gun needs to be loaded with 2 (two) sticks for the trigger to work. Push one in as far as you can then load a second behind it. The second one actually works off the trigger pushing the first down through the heating elements.

Zeroed in on a High Point 995 TS in 4 rounds. Really liked it but after 100+ rounds started to drop out turning off. Found I had to select between numbered settings and couldn't trust it would stay on. Also took one battery to determine on / off of sight. Really thought I had a winner however unless I can figure out how to set so it holds in the on position will return to my scope and file this in the $20 loss column. Any thoughts from other users how to deal with this issue. Appears to be a recoil issue.

hi i have to agree with vid pro. i do not believe you have ruined it at all. i would get the gun hot again and push more sticks of glue through too. even if you used mini sticks keep pushing thru even if you used a wooden skewer to help push it thru [ never use metal,] only a wood skewer, just to push it as soon as you see the glue come through, try to get all the glue mini sticks out that way.might as well get the right sized glue sticks cos this will be a repeat of the same ole problem you are having now if you don't. the best thing is just use the right size sticks to push out the mini sticks of glue out, then you can bypass wood skewer. that is what i would do. you should really use the mini glue sticks for a smaller gun cos the chamber is made for the mini sticks that is why it is difficult to get the glue flow out with this gun. rest assured i use this glue gun profesionally i own 2 i love this gun. this gun is HOT please make sure to have ice water near you can dunk a finger in, helps to cool the glue so the burn isn't so bad. live and learn please be careful. enjoy that gun hope this helps pammypurple

I had the same problem... I contacted them and they replaced just the machine not the gun. They said if the gun doesn't work it's how you clean it. How did you clean your gun? I use mine for business all the time as i am a professional make up artist and so far after my husband cleaned it well it's working

It may be jammed. Make sure the battery is fully charged, then shoot it without the nb magazine. See if any bbs fly out or drop. (Make sure dont point at anybody or shoot indoors for that matter) use the unjamming rod if necessary. Use .25 bbs. this is a quality gun regardless of reviews. I get 27:6 kill ratio with this gun as my main versus other players who use 300 dollar guns (or my other 300 dollar guns for that matter)! Play safe and have fun! (dont use .20bbs or else it WILLjam. And upgrade the battery with an 8.4v it was originally designed by umarex with that battery in mind)

The majority of the posts are positive. However, a few fuss about "breakage" and/or the heating element dying out after a couple of uses.What model is yours? I am begining to comprehend the proper uses and the best recipes, but "model numbers" are not given with the posts.MML

You have to make sure the magazine is full clipped in, try hitting the bottom of the magazine so Ivan hear it click and slide in to the gun an make sure the battery is charged because it doesn't come charged and Also make sure the battery is in correctly, then it should fire! Mine works perfectly
