The handheld TC20 Thermocutter is compact and easy to use for cutting plastics, fabrics, polystyrene, rubber and other materials. It offers adjustable power regulation, rapid blade heat up (with overheating protection), easy blade change functionality, LED function control, and much more. A variety of thermocutter blades are available for different applications.
In the past, thermocutters have been heavy and their handles overheat due to the transformer in the tools' handle. With the TC20, both of these issues have been solved. The TC20's electronics eliminate the need for the heavy transformers of the past, bringing the tool's total weight to under 12 ounces. Without the need for a transformer, the handle will no longer overheat in the user's hand. Blades heat instantly from 0 - 1050 degrees and temperatures are easily adjusted by using the convenient thumb wheel. Dual settings allow you to use the standard-sized blades or the very long and/or thick blades once only used with the model ZTS24 Thermocutter.

Easy to use, seems to be made out of solid material. Doesn't feel as cheap as I was expecting. A solid thermocutter. Make sure to get the 120V for a standard plug.

After years of dealing with handles that overheat, this is a great change. I can get more work done since I don't have to stop and wait for the handle to cool. Plus the light weight is easy to work with.
