DreamedArtist: I use a Milwaukee M18 Airblower for years on my pc. 100 CFM (160 MPH) it has enough power to rip the hardest sticking dust off of fans and everything else. it's outstanding tbh.
How is it on parking lots? Seriously asking. Charge?

No offense to any ladies present but I swear every place I work, they have these little girly models to blow the lots. Either that or the batteries are so old, I'm lucky to get 30 seconds off of a full charge.

I can get depending on the battery attached to it, maybe up to one hour. It's one of the best for blowing heavy items away and clearing spots fast. I can clear my garage in 2 minutes with this thing. and my garage can fit 3 cars. Dewalt has one as well that is similar but a bit cheaper.


Little vid showing it in action. You can get bigger tube extension to blow more faster and clear more area.

MiKiL: Metro mentions that there is 220V/50Hz version available too so I guess searching specifically for 220V version from amazon.de or amazon.com might give some hits. :)
There is only one UK reseller they mention in "Where to buy - International"-page and that one only sells tennis-stuff according to their page so that's bit odd. X-D
Usually when I want to find out if some Finnish place is selling a product, I enter the product name and "hinta" in google. (for non-Finns, "hinta" is "price" in Finnish.). I guess Google has some options to search also Finnish pages, not sure if that means pages in Finnish, or where the IP address points to Finland.

Anyways, I did find one place that was selling some Metro Vac product(s)... but apparently just their car vacuum cleaners. No thanks, my car can stay dirty as long as my laptop is dust-free.

Maybe I'll try from some German or UK site then, or even if some Chinese sell similar products as I did get a HDD tray for my laptop from China very cheaply. I'd almost want to contact Metro Vac whether they want me to be a reseller for their products in Finland, just set up a basic web page and start selling...

I tried to find similar products from verkkokauppa.com, but came empty. They had just compressed air cans apparently, and searching for metro vac or metrovac came empty too.

I didn't find suitable at least from Motonet and Biltema web pages, it seems they had more expensive and bigger "pro stuff" where you buy a big compressor and then some kind or air gun on top of it.

I'm interested to know though whether this cheap rubber thingie would be enough?

It is even called a duster (dust blower), so apparently it is even meant for that purpose? I might just as well buy that and see if it seems to be enough for my needs. Better than nothing I guess, and better than blowing with your lungs and spitting on the motherboard.

That looks more like something you would use to dust off a camera lens or small electronics.

Probably. Get about the same from an ear syringe. I can't think of what you could do with so small a pump/supply.
