## Description

Product Description Quickly and easily blow dust, lint, and debris off keyboards, computers, printers and other high-tech equipment. Protects your valuable hardware from breakdowns and costly repairs. From the Manufacturer This newest addition to Metro's proven DataVac line has been completely redesigned from the ground-up. It is much more compact and comfortable to use than previous models and features a new, almost unbelievably powerful 500-watt motor that literally blasts dust, dirt, and debris off expensive computer/electronic equipment to keep it running at peak efficiency. The new DataVac electric duster is a "greener," more effective, and cost-efficient alternative to the controversial "canned air" products.

Review: Fantastic Little Duster - This is a fantastic little air duster. I've been on the fence about getting one of these for the last few years and finally decided to get one as my last can of air ran out. I wish I would have gotten one sooner. The device is a bit smaller than I expected, but don't let that fool you: this thing has more than enough power, even without any of the attachments, to clear dust out of darn near everything. I typically just use the attachment shown in use in all the listing images, but it comes with about a half dozen other various attachments that you could use if you desired. The one shown in all the pictures concentrates and directs the air very well for dusting PCs and keyboards. The unit is a bit noisy while in operation, but trust me, you don't want to be doing this indoors anyway. After a solid 5 - 10 minutes of use, the unit does get warm to the touch, but I'm being a bit anal about how dust-free my computer is before I call it all clean. The instructions mention that after prolonged use the unit may get warm to the touch and say that this is completely normal and to simply allow the device to cool before using again. As I said before, I wish I had bought this unit sooner. There are a few things that really make this thing worth the money. First, this unit was made in the USA. Second, do you know that feeling you have with a can of air where you think "Well, this component could be a bit cleaner, but this can is almost empty and I still have the rest of the computer to dust"? It's such a liberating feeling to not have to worry about that and to dust to your heart's content. Third is that I'll never have to pay $10 bucks for a two pack of canned air (really, canned chemicals that come out under high pressure) again, nor will their waste be consuming space in a landfill. If you have the money, pick this gem up. You won't be disappointed.
Review: It really does blow leaves!!! - I am tired of buying canned air and of freezing my hands to clean a computer -and I still am; I am never buying canned air again!! This thing is amazing!!! I can't even begin to tell you how powerful it is and how great it cleans. I can even clean in between the blades of the huge heat sinks the XEONs that my workstation needs and when I am done, everything looks brand new again!! I read a review here wherein the reviewer read another review claiming that it could blow leaves off a deck and he did not believe the review until he tried it. I did not believe either review -then I tried it and WOW! The leaves did not stand a chance!! The blower is exceptionally well built and I expect that we will be together for many happy years. Solid steel, powerful, made in the USA -by a family business no less!, and for only a little bit more than a few cans of air, what's not to like!! I can't recommend this product highly enough! I love it! To the people that make it: DO NOT CHANGE A THING!! IT IS PERFECT THE WAY IT IS!!! how often can one say that about anything these days! Ok, it has been a long time since I first wrote the preceding paragraphs and I have used this AMAZING tool since 2013 and I can safely say that there simply is no better product out there (that is, the men and women who designed and the one's who manufacture it make THE BEST PRODUCT ON THE MARKET! and that is high praise indeed from someone who has been fortunate enough to own several products from several manufacturers and retailers that ARE DEFINED by their EXCEPTIONAL RELIABILITY and the EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY OF THEIR WORKMANSHIP) and if you buy ANYTHING OTHER than THIS duster, I DO NOT CARE HOW CHEAPLY, EVEN IF IT WAS GIVEN TO YOU FOR FREE, YOU HAVE MADE A TERRIBLE BLUNDER! Send that excuse back and GET THIS DUSTER! After all these years, IT STILL BLOWS LEAVES OFF THE PORCH! As soon as I can find some room in the budget, I will purchase another one because it simply is such an amazing product and of such quality that I could no more function without it than I could function without my microwave oven. TO THE PEOPLE THAT MADE IT, I CAN ONLY THANK YOU FOR YOUR CRAFTSMANSHIP AND BEG YOU TO NOT CHANGE A THING! Just in case that my answer to the question about static discharge would give anyone any ideas like "well, of course it is reliable, he uses it twice a year!" LET ME DISAVOW YOU OF THAT IDEA! It will dry a car, blow out the ac vents, and clean out (and not just inside the cooking area) a microwave. I also use it to blow out the tubes in the back of the fridge and behind and around here and there. I have even used it to clean out the VACUUM CLEANER! Hoses and all, when it came time to change the drive belt etc... I have no doubt that I got more use out of the vac simply because it did not have to work as hard as one that had more dirt in the hoses and the motor compartment than in the bag or canister! I do only have to dust the computer twice a year but that is only because it really does clean it out that well. No, I did not get paid to write this review (I have written very few) nor did I get the product at a discount or something. I did not know anything about either the product or the company back then; I first bought it with the idea that spray cans are not environmentally friendly and this was a way of doing something about the 12 cans or so that it took to clean the workstation because the "cheese grater" is far harder to clean with the cans than it is with this duster. Now, 7 years later, I do know and I mean what I said.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this ESD (Electrostatic discharge) safe on internal computer components? I plan to use this to clean expensive graphic cards so ESD is important.**
A: Ok, I have been using this on a Mac Pro for 2/3ds of its life and I would bet that my graphics card was just as expensive (at the time) as the one in the OP's computer.  If you have to get close enough for ESD to be an issue then you might find the white being blown off the rice LOL! This has been an EXTRAORDINARY piece of equipment for me and one that I can recommend without reservation.  I do pull the hard drives and optical drives out but it isn't like that requires any effort in a Mac Pro and that gives me access behind the motherboard (the only debatable choice in an exceptionally designed product (haters notwithstanding) and someone found a way to make it better because the 2019 Mac Pro opens on both sides) and the power supply.  For that, I use the flexible extension and have done so twice a year for a long time indeed and without a problem.

**Q: Is it rechargeable or does it have to stay plugged in? Also how loud is it?**
A: It has to stay plugged in but it has a pretty long cord!   Pretty loud!!   I don't mind either one though.  I'm thinking you could use this with an extension cord.   You have to hold this by the handle as you use it.  The "can" part gets very hot!

**Q: Anyone know where to get a replacement filter ?**
A: Just cut the right size circle from a piece of window ac filter foam at a hardware store.  That's what I would do.

**Q: Are these still Made in USA?**
A: According to the packaging they are Made in the USA
