Relife RL-062E Hot Melt Glue Gun for Phone Motherboard Repair

Hot-melt glue is handy for keeping a jumper wire or loose cable in place while the rest of a repair is finished. It's quick and holds well, and it can be peeled off later if needed. A small glue gun means it's ready whenever you need it.

The Relife RL-062E is a hot-melt glue gun of about 25 W that runs on 100–240 V AC. It takes 7 mm glue sticks, weighs about 200 g and, according to the listing, heats up in around 4 minutes. It has a heat-resistant nozzle sleeve, a built-in stand and a power switch, and it comes with 10 glue sticks.

When it's handy

• A jumper wire that could break or come loose and needs anchoring.

• Loose cables that rattle inside a device.

• Small parts that need holding in place before final assembly.

• Wires that need tidying in assemblies or projects.

Safety notes

Let it heat up fully before squeezing the trigger. Stand it upright on its stand between uses, and don't touch the nozzle while it's hot or just after use. Switch it off when you're done.

Use only 7 mm glue sticks, and keep the hot nozzle away from cables and plastic parts.
