The Milwaukee 2688-20 is a cordless heat gun that runs on the M18 battery platform. Milwaukee rates it to reach operating temperature in 7 seconds, so repeated heat-shrink and adhesive jobs go quickly. It is short and light, which lets it reach into engine bays, panels and other tight spots where a corded gun will not fit. It is a tool-only kit, so you need an M18 battery and charger you already own. Against corded heat guns it trades unlimited run time and high output for portability; against cheaper cordless guns it brings the M18 battery system and a fast coil.

Owners like the fast heat-up and the compact size for quick spot jobs. The main complaints are that it ships without a battery and that it drains packs quickly on longer tasks.
The Milwaukee M18 Compact Heat Gun (2688-20) is a cordless heat gun for heat-shrink connections, adhesive removal, paint stripping and plastic bending. It reaches operating temperature in 7 seconds. It can heat more than 40 connections on a single XC5.0 battery.
The body is 6.39 inches long and weighs 1.7 pounds, so it fits into recessed and crowded areas and can be used one-handed. A guarded nozzle helps keep the tool from touching nearby surfaces. An integrated LED light lights up dark work areas, and a ladder hook gives you a place to hang the tool between uses.
REDLINK intelligence manages temperature and helps protect the tool from overloads, overheating and over-discharge. The tool runs on Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM battery packs. It is sold as a bare tool, so the battery and charger are not included.
