Before You Buy Guy Here. Today we're checking out the data vac electric duster ED 500
I've been doing the product research and checking out the reviews
so that you don't have to. Stick around
let's have a look at Metro Vac as a company. The slogan for this company is
Deliberately made better in the USA. The ED 500 and all of metro vacs products
are made in the United States. Metro Vac manufacture all types
specialty vacuums and blowers such as pet dryers and car and motorcycle dryers and air pumps
In 2008 metro vac introduced the handheld datavac electric duster a
safe environmentally friendly alternative to controversial and
potentially dangerous canned air. It looks like they ship worldwide because
they do ship to Australia. But I didn't check every country.
let's have a look at some of the features of this product. So essentially this vacuum duster -- is an alternative
to using canned air. When you're using canned air they don't last that long
and you find yourself having to buy a
new can of air quite often. The metro back data vac is much more powerful than
a can of air and it's more environmentally friendly.
you don't have to buy and you can't event every time you run low. If you care about the environment
and love technology you should definitely subscribe to this channel
but also you might want to consider buying this vacuum.
the metrovac datavac comes with a whole range of different attachments.
so the construction is a sturdy all steel baked enamel finish. It's got a 0.75 peak
horsepower motor and it runs at 4.5 amps 540 watts and the airflow it's a warm powerful
blast and it's quite noisy as well I guess it's worth you knowing that it is quite loud
the product dimensions are six point seven five inches by four
inches by 7.5 inches and it weighs three pounds
here's a list of attachments that come with this device: one air pinpointer
one air concentrated nozzle one air flare nozzle and four piece
detailing toolkit. Now me personally when using this device I've only ever used
one nozzle but tried out some of the other nozzles when I first bought this
I'm mainly using this to blow out keyboards and computers really depends
if you've got a specific job that you need that type of nozzle for
when you first buy this if you've got a computer that hasn't been dusted for a long time
make sure you take it outside to the first dusting. You'll be surprised by how
much it's going to come out I just might computer all the time using
this blower so not as much dust comes out. Let's take a look at the metro vac ED500 in action

now you can probably tell that since I own one of these I'm a pretty big fan
but let's take a look at what some other customers have to say. Now before we take
a look at the reviews it looks like the ED500 comes in a both white or black
dug down and did a bit more research the black version comes with a cable that
ties around your wrist and then you can use that to ground yourself to stop
static electricity from damaging your expensive equipment. The white version
does not come with that so if you're wanting to get the version that has the
cable make sure you get the black one the product that you would want to buy
would be the electric duster ESD. To be honest I never used the wrist cable I
haven't had any problems with static electricity damaging my devices yet okay
let's get stuck into these reviews so Google reviews 4.7 stars out of 5 stars
over 450 reviewers. This Google reviewers said they found a powerful has many uses
great alternative to canned air. Larger than expected and has a good practical grip
thanks Google ah here's a three star review: not enough power loud and heats up quickly
okay it is loud it is pretty loud and it does get warm so you
know what that's probably fair. I think if you had much more power
you'd be at risk of blowing your computers apart. It's pretty powerful.
Oh guys, guys! I found a one star review here it is : toxic blower, a very toxic smell
when blowing. You heard it here first: toxic blower! Now at first I thought
maybe it's what this person is blowing but I did find a couple of other
customers who complained about the smell These reviews are from a while ago and I
haven't noticed any recent reviews that are complaining about the smell
I've been using the MetroVac data vac for at least 12 months and I haven't noticed
any toxic smell. Okay he's an Amazon customer they had to return it because
it stopped working after five minutes Yeah that is not ideal. You know a lot of
these Amazon reviews are not in English but there's a lot more positive reviews
than there are negative ones. So to summarize this is a powerful and unique tool
I don't think everybody would really have a
use for one of these - but if you do have expensive electronics like computers or
camera equipment and you live in a dusty area this could be a great option
if you're already spending money on canned air you could actually save money by
buying this blower in the long run. Do you think this blower is worth the price tag?
