Metrovac or..

[mrapoc]

About to cough up and buy a metrovac for £90

Anyone used something like a powerful airbed pump? I don't have an air compressor either, but it would be useful to have something portable for on site.

Shall I just go for it?

Thanks

I've had my Metrovac for a couple months now. This one: http://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001J4ZOAW

I liked it right off the bat. Rugged, powerful, portable, long power cord. Works very well. Only complaint - it's loud. But I guess you can't pack that much power in such a small package without giving up something.

It's worth the money.

I've been using a Datavac Air Duster for a couple of years.
Got it here http://www.mrpcclean.co.uk/datavac-electric-duster-ed500-p-261.html
Works great, very powerful BUT it never runs for more than 5 minutes at a stretch and maybe 4-5 times per day. Very portable BTW

Yeh looking at that one from mr pc clean. Only place in the UK which means they can get away with a £90 inc vat price tag

Another +1 for the Datavac. Yes its expensive, but saves you at least a can of air a week.

Been using mine now for a couple of years, and swear by it.

Went for it. Everyone digs it and it looks so handy.

Thanks for talking me into spending

I'll 2nd this one.

Man, do they BLOW! LOL

Makes compressed air can flow seem like a little breeze.

Be careful, it WILL blow things off.

Been using for 3 years, no issues.

Remember to clean the filter on the bottom, it gets clogged pretty quick.

Ordered one. Will be with me tomorrow. Can't wait
