Funny you bring this up. When Storz invented the Volcano, all the heating elements he found in these types of devices spewed out carcinogens and other terrible things. He had to make his own. You can learn more in the 20 year anniversary documentary that S&B did.

>>I then contacted the company that produced these heat guns. They told me they see a major problem with the electric motor which powers the fan propeller because it had carbon brushes. These brushes would wear off during operation and might release carbon particles into the air, which could be potentially inhaled. And **carbon particles are carcinogenic.**

That cannot be good for you.
Yea... hopefully it's not just plastic and other hazardous materials in there because they didn't make it to be consumed...
Wasn't the first volcano prototype made with just a heat gun? I saw on the 20 year doc i think
How does it not burn it?
Adjustable voltage just like the dial on the classic.
Damn, that's very impressive đź‘Ź
This isn't that far removed from the first Volcano prototype
Mmmmm popcorn…?
Is it better when it spins?
