I got a battery-powered air blower after seeing a YouTube video comparing and reviewing them.

I've always joked about how stupid leaf blower are, but I've found this pocket-sized version really useful.

Cleaning out dust from computers, tower fans, etc, it is amazing.

I also have a small dust buster and this blower gets its filter really clean like nothing else can.

Unlike cans of compressed gas, there's no concern about inhaling anything if I use it indoors, or getting frostbite when the can cools.

Project Farm? Did you get the WOLFBOX air blower?

[–] bandwidthcrisis@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It was that channel!

And it was the wolfbox. I didn't mention it because I didn't want to appear to be shilling a particular product.

[–] Bazoogle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

It's not really shilling since you aren't benefiting for them in anyway. I got it too. It's a powerful blower, for sure. It's expensive, but I got it on sale for like $70 USD and I'd say it was worth it on sale.

I bought a "for dewalt" handheld vacuum that also acts as a blower/mattress filler. With the small tip on it it's almost as good as the air compressor for cleaning dust out of the pc. It was only $30 iirc

Yeah, I got one of these for my camera gear, but have found hundreds of other uses for it
