I’m not using a heat gun, it´s a hairdryer; on this case the hairdryer hardly exceeds the 60°C and that is enough to remove the battery. If you want to buy a heat gun you must be careful not to use more than 50 °
Thank you so much for this wonderful article it helped me replace my battery. I bought my replacement battery from here:-
