Bruce if you want a real good one than I like the Milwaukee one but I have been buying the cheap HF ones the last 10 years or so. They are cheap ($15 right now) and usually last several years. It does not hurt as bad when you drop it into a big pile of manure and have to hope it still works.
I do have a Milwaukee that I keep in the shop. It has more air flow. I use it on shrink tubing on battery cables and also to preheat bearing and such.
The main use I originally bought one for was heat shrink tubing. I got tired of scorching it with a lighter. The heat gun will shrink it without damaging anything around it.
What they are great for too is PVC water lines. preheat the plastic pipe and the fitting will slide right on an the clamps will compress it much better.
I use them on all kinds of rubber/plastic hose to soften it so you can get it apart or together easier.
Have been using it on frozen pipes and waterers for years too. There is not flame so I do not have to worry about catching bedding or hay on fire.
Just used it on the tractor cab door today. Some ice had frozen the latch shut. just a few minutes with the heat gun and it open right up. Did not have to worry about a flame damaging the paint or anything.
