Yeah, for heat shrink.  Especially the larger stuff.  The smaller stuff I rub 
with the soldering iron.

I use my heat gun for heat shrink tubing or as a makeshift space heater.  1500W 
will make a radio shack nice and warm.

  I am embarrassed to admit I don't own a heat gun, though if I did it'd be an 
M18 Milwaukee...

    I have used a good warming tray.  They are pretty light.  Small electric 
skillet.  Heat gun. Blow drier.

      Options I've used are
      1) 3-4x "round ceiling" type lighbulb holders wirth 100W bulbs mounted on 
a piece of wood, using PC power cords with the ends cut off to make them 
plug-in. Inexpensive and load is customizable by choosing how many to plug in. 
Just need to be careful of storage as the bulbs are delicate.

      2) heater with a low-heat mode that takes about 300-400W.

        My UPS needs to be at 30% load to get a runtime load test.  I'm at 11% 
(of 750va) with the BH and AP up there. 

        If memory serves, back in 2015 I used a couple CRT monitors.  Those are 
long gone.  The only idea I have is a space heater, but that's 850-900 watts 
and will probably be too much.

        Short of carrying up 20 Ubiquiti AP/POE and some surge strips, anyone 
have any clever ideas?  I have to carry this up 5 flights of stairs so please 
be gentle :)
