Hi
Among the ones you have mentioned, one is made by a company that is dedicated to heat guns and hot glue guns and the company is called Steinel, Steinel is a German company that produces in Germany and Romania, also the produce for Bosch and Metabo (not Metabo HPT), now their new tools work with Bosch and Metabo batteries as well. If you already have Bosch batteries then you can go for the Bosch one, Steinel also has a in line heat gun which works with Bosch batteries, If you need more info you can write, what do you need it for?!
Other brands make their heat guns in China. Comparing Steinel heat guns with other brands’ heat guns is like comparing Festool miter saw with DeWAlT miter saw.
This is the heat gun Steinel has made for Ampshare battery platform working with Bosch batteries. From the photos I can say it is used for heating the felt for the roof, the other heat guns they made for CAS battery platform using Metabo batteries are in the same shape as the others.
