I could easily be talked into buying an additional unit if it were cordless (rechargeable battery type) and the sound level cut by about 50%.

I use this little blower to clean industrial wireless equipment, and it does an industrial job. When I'm done cleaning my filters I am able to blow out leaves and small debris off the floor.

Comments about Metro Metro DataVac Electric Duster 500, Compressed Air Cleaner for Camera & Keyboard:

the electric duster is really good for cleaning a big dusty area but is a little difficult to use on cameras because of the on/off switch. it needs a button to get small burst of air. the on/off switch gives a big burst only and stays on or off. the best way i found is to turn on and turn it away real quick. it is a good product and was a great price.

I bought this to clean the dust out from my computer, but since the first use I have used to for so many other purposes. It is powerful and has a long electrical cord. Sure beats buying air cans!!!!!

Comments about Metro Metro DataVac Electric Duster 500, Compressed Air Cleaner for Camera & Keyboard:

Much more powerful than I expected. Does a great job removing dust from anyplace you would use canned air.
Watch when you use attachments that they are firmly attached, as they will blow off.

Comments about Metro Metro DataVac Electric Duster 500, Compressed Air Cleaner for Camera & Keyboard:

It does what the description says - it is a powerful blower you can use to clean dust instead of using canned air and it does a GREAT job of it.

I use it on dusting computers, and it does a great job! Blows away dust that canned air does not budge.

Not sure why the previous reviewer is surprized by the power of the machine - it is 0.75 HP motor after all. This is clearly labeled. The only On/Off button is also clearly visible on the item photos.

More Air Output Than You Can Handle
By AllenVerified Purchaser from Park Ridge, IL on 8/25/2009

Comments about Metro Metro DataVac Electric Duster 500, Compressed Air Cleaner for Camera & Keyboard:

The primary reason I purchased this item was to clear dust from film prior to darkroom printing or computer scanning thus saving on the high cost of canned air. The unit has a push button on/off switch. The volume of air generated is greater than needed for clearing film, and is more suitable for cleaning computer keyboards and other similar high volume air required tasks. If the unit had a blower motor speed control it would serve a greater variety of photo related tasks. It is also rather large and bulky for hand held use. I hope to modify it with an in-line speed control switch.
