## Description

Most laminators only support much thinner 3 and 5 mil laminating pouches. The Brainstorm ID 4.5 Teslin ID Card Laminator was designed from the start to work best with the 7 and 10 mil laminating pouches used when making Teslin ID Cards. Made for ease of use and consistent lamination performance. If you're thinking about going with a different low-cost laminator for making Teslin ID cards, stop now. This is the laminator for you. Other so called easy laminators have a difficult time laminating thicker 10 mil laminates that the Brainstorm ID-Lam 45 handles without pause. Go with the best, you won't regret it. This laminator has 2 temperature controls to set the perfect temperature for 7 and 10 mil laminates. This laminator will heat up in about 5 minutes, and features a green LED to indicate that it has heated to the proper temperature and is ready to use.Includes a full one year warranty!

Review: Quick & Great Price - As soon as this arrived & put through 25 cards in less than 5 minutes! It did perfect on all of them & it was done with 10 mil laminating pockets & laminating over card stock. The only thing I had to do was pull it out when it’s done as it didn’t automatically finish spitting it out. No complaints about that from me as I am right there anyway. I love this already but can’t attest yet to how long it lasts. I have several hundred to do so I will be finding out. I’m already pleased though!
Review: Great for craft foiling, nice alternative to Minc - I have been foiling stickers and have been looking for a budget laminators that has enough heat and pressure to foil (using a toner based printer with purpose-made foils). I looked at the Minc and it seems to have terrible reviews, so I I'm skipping out on it for now. This ID laminators seems to be the only laminator on desertcart under $50 that will do 10mil (which is what you need for foiling). Anyway after testing, this seems to do the trick! All my stickers are no more than 4.5" across, so the width is not a problem--in fact the small width is a bonus--wider rollers become uneven over time and don't offer the even, strong amount of pressure needed for foiling. Regarding the stickiness/jamming issue : I sandwich all of my stickers and foils between a teflon sheet (just search for "Teflon Sheet for Heat Press"), so this hasn't been an issue for me yet. Always make sure that there is NOTHING sticky, or that will become sticky when heated, or you WILL get a jam, and it is not a fun experience to fix. Regarding the heat issue, just make sure to always keep it OFF when you are not using it--and when you are using it, especially for prolonged periods, it helps to prop it up on both sides so that it can cool from the bottom. You can also point a fan at it while it's going. It's a laminator and gets hot, so this is an issue with nearly all inexpensive laminators. I will update this review after more experience but so far so good!

### ⭐ Not worth your time, unless you enjoy re doing all of your work.
*by A***W on November 4, 2016*

This thing should not even be advertised as an ID laminator. All it has done is ruin every single ID I have ran through it. This thing does not have the pressure or heat to seal a 7 or 10 mil card... A 3 mil laminate works perfectly fine though, but that's not the reason anyone is getting this specific unit. I would have expected much better from a shop focused on IDs.
