Re: canned air - RAMd®d - 11-10-2023
I have the older version - still has the "set and forget",
I knew that because I'd read the ad copy back with it was being sold.
as would the newer one (indicated by the +/- and Start buttons).
I saw that but since I must have missed it in the ad copy for the new one, I decided to trust but verify.
I bought a couple of clamp-on adapters shortly after I got the inflator.
Those are nice.
They'd make using a little HF portable 12V compressor with a screw on connector more convenient for my car, and much more convenient for my bike (the rotors get in the way, especially for the rear tire.
I could go broke saving money at this place.

You can always go w/ something like this......
Your basic RYO refillable air duster. Use your own bicycle pump, or inflation stations as shown above to charge 'em up.
$22 at Bezosville
$15 at Wally's
There are bigger, better, more powerful units available at more premium prices, but you oughta get the idea here.
Good luck!

Just a follow up on the corded blower I got from Amazon, It works pretty well. I didn't want a sealed battery powered unit that becomes garbage when the battery craps out in 3-5 years.
For the $20 I paid, it works just as I had hopped. Scared the kittens though. They were peering around the door jamb with eyes wide open.

It's normally $40, but they have too many in the warehouse I would guess. Comes with a number of attachments, extra cleanable intake filters, and 2 power settings. It will warm up, as it draws 500 watts on high.
If it outlasts about 5 cans of air, I'm ahead.
