Some popular heat guns have been recalled for internal heat build up. "An electrical component failure inside the heat guns can cause them to continue to produce heat after the power switch is turned off. This can melt the heat gun’s plastic exterior, causing a burn if the heat gun is touched and ignite nearby combustibles, posing fire and burn hazards."

My heat gun is indeed melting, and is indeed the one listed here. They are sending me a new one. Thanks for posting this.
