1 / 7Bosch GHG18V-50N 18V Cordless Heat Gun
Bosch GHG18V-50N is an 18V cordless heat gun with two temperature settings, two included nozzles, and a bare-tool configuration. It suits mobile heating jobs, but a compatible battery and charger are needed separately if you do not already have them.
At a glance
- Two temperature settings are listed at 570°F and 930°F, with heat-up to 570°F claimed within six seconds.
- Hook nozzle directs hot air around surfaces, while the reduction nozzle concentrates heat flow.
- The lockout switch is intended to help prevent accidental activation during travel or storage.
- Bosch claims up to 21 minutes of runtime at 570°F with a CORE18V 8 Ah battery.

That concern matters for longer jobs, especially because Bosch's up-to-21-minute claim applies to a CORE18V 8 Ah battery at 570°F. The feedback describes user impressions and does not establish runtime under particular conditions.
