About this deal

I love this glue pen. It was given to me by my Mum two years ago for Xmas and I've used it a fair bit since then. I've used it to make various glue art items, mostly book or journal covers.” This item is delivered direct to you from one of our suppliers, please see our Terms & Conditions for details.

On the left side next to the micro USB there is a charger circuit labeled ‘3303’. On the top of the micro there appears to be a NTC used to monitor the temperature during charging. The holes are probably there in case a through hole termistor is used. The Bosch Gluey Evergreen Cordless Gluing Pen gives you endless possibilities to bring your creativity to life! The Gluey Evergreen is cordless working and is environmentally friendly thanks to rechargeable AA batteries. Finally gluing is fun thanks to the compact and convenient hot glue pen Gluey. You can expect precise gluing due to the optimized dosing nozzle for all your DIY tasks and projects. On the right side we can see the fuse and a IRF3711Z 6mΩ 20V HEXFET driving the heating element. At the glue melting end there is no temperature sensor, they are probably relying on the positive thermal coefficient of the heating element to achieve a rather stable temperature, as the manual quotes “approximately 170 °C”. Also there is a step up converter – used to generate ~12 V to drive the gate of the tranzistor, to keep it in the low ohmic region.There does not appear to be any form of electronic temperature regulation – even after 3 minutes since I turned it ON the device maintains 12 V constantly at the gate of the tranzistor, no PWM or anything. Overall, the glueing process is clean, as the pen doesn’t leave lots of trails like some rival products do. The nib is also small and precise, meaning it’s possible to place tiny amounts of glue for those really intricate tasks. This product carries a full 3 year manufacturers warranty covering both faulty materials and faulty workmanship, it does not cover general wear and tear or damage, batteries, blades, bulbs and other consumables. In the unlikely event of a fault the item returned is subject to fair wear & tear and must not have been used beyond the scope of it's design. Please note that cordless products will normally have a shorter warranty of just 1 Year for the battery and or charger supplied.

It comes with a 3 year warranty, though you must register for this within 30 days of purchasing (same for all Bosch tools).Although extremely simple in its design, the Bosch GluePen feels well built and sits nicely in the hand. There aren't many moving parts, so it’s not like there are flimsy clips or cheap buttons to let the side down. This is a great product overall. As per usual with Bosch it's very well made and easy to use. If you have something relatively small to glue (ie I used it to fix a Christmas decoration and my wife glued some interior trim in her car) it's just the job. Why internet is fast and cheap in Romania and some other countries (but expensive and slow in others) June 25, 2022
