I was recommended two devices to try for blowing dust out of components. A compressor and a computer cleaner. Let's find out which one is most suitable for my requirements.

02:49 Compu Cleaner Xpert
05:04 Ryobi 18V Mini Compressor
11:45 Dusting
12:19 Summary
15:11 Warning Messages
WARNINGS
1) Apparently blowing compressed air on skin can be dangerous.
2) Compressors can expel water along with the air - so may be unsuitable for blowing on electronics without the appropriate moisture capturing system.
These are just things I’ve been told - I have no real experience or knowledge regarding compressors.

NOTES:
This video was made before the Technics SV-P100 video but realised after due to hitting the million subscriber landmark.
UPDATE:
I came to inflate my tyres today and found the battery on the Ryobi was flat. It seems that the compressor must slowly drain the battery even when it's not in use. So that's another negative as far as I'm concerned. In future I'll be leaving the battery unattached until it is needed.

Whatever works to get the job done is whatever works, but I wouldn't personally recommend that. The impellers in cheap (or probably "all" these days) are plastic and there is nothing between them and the outlet. Those impellers are known to occasionally explode and send their pieces, violently, out the outlet. They can also generate a ton of static electricity.

@MrNside 4 года назад

Even larger compressors tend to cycle more often when just spraying air. Spraying straight air uses all of the air as fast as it will go through the hose for as long as you hold the valve open. In contrast, tools like nailers will only use a short burst of air, just enough to actuate the plunger out and back in. Even tools that use a constant flow of air will tend to use less than an air nozzle because they provide more resistance. Think of it like CPU fans, there are some that move a lot of air, and are great for case fans, but they aren't as good against a heatsink or radiator. For that scenario, you're better off with a high-static-pressure fan. In this situation, you just need to move air, you don't need the static pressure. Also, you don't really have to "wait" for the compressor to cycle, though you don't want the motor running for an extended period, like several minutes.

@SwitchAndLever 4 года назад

The risk of an embolism due to compressed air at the skin is extremely overrated though. Yes, there is a risk, if you use moderately high pressure and you push the nozzle basically to basically point blank range of your skin. At the distance you're doing it, with that pressure, you have nothing to worry about. It's just a good practice not to do, so you don't start pushing it into unsafe areas.

@motalasuger 4 года назад

That story sounded like part of it was pure b.s. - “The only way for the air to escape was the usual way gas passed from the body, he said.” That would have assumed the air entered his intestines for that to happen, yet from the story it seems like the nozzle entered his butt cheek and not his rear hookup, and given they said it separated muscle and fat... ugh, yeah... If the air entered through the cheek and exited the exit port, then he’d have been shredded inside for that to happen unfortunately.

@tortron 4 года назад

@@motalasuger Yeah i think that particular part was a bit of a tall story, im sure its what he tells everyone who asks

@xidarian 3 года назад

It's an almost non existant risk with a compressor like that, however playing with compressed air against your skin can cause it to vibrate very fast and leave a small burn, those hurt.

@kenstr321 3 года назад

I mean if you think about it you first have to cause a tear in your skin, then you have to cause a vain to open up as well. So you'd have to use something like 250 to 300 psi, have it damn near on your skin without over pressure protection. (And damn near none come without them) Mostly I feel this rule is because some people hate "wasting the air" or the power it used to pressurize it.

You don't have to stop using the air while compressors refill; you're meant to just merrily carry on while the thing maintains its own pressure however it wants. Also, you should probably tilt it so the water valve is at the lowest point before venting the water out.

@baronvonlimbourgh1716 4 года назад

That one is never going to keep up with that, the tank is simply to small and will be empty after a few seconds. Might as well take the tank out and connect the nozzle to the pump directly then. I did notice the valve thing lol. That obviously needs to be the lowest point for the water to run out ;)

@TheThomasites 4 года назад

@Pro1er 4 года назад

@Kregorius 4 года назад

Airguns use more air than people think. Tank and compressor are too small for continued air gun use. For tyre pumping and other "building pressure in closed system" applications its fine. Used to have 16l olillsess compressor. Only a moment of high pressure airgun use. Now we have 100l 10bar comoressor. That one can keep up with airgun. Water remover is adviced before air gun. No matter how much you drain the tank it will always sputter something from the hose pressuring-depressurising.

@davisev5225 4 года назад

Matt, the issue with compressors and skin only comes up when you're dealing with much higher pressures than shown, or when you press it directly against your skin. At the pressures and distances you filmed, you cannot push air into your bloodstream, even if you have an un-bandaged cut. It is, of course, always safer to err on the side of caution, but you have nothing to worry about from what you showed us.

As an airbrush artist I would definitely use one of these. Currently my small compressor is not portable, and needs wall power. Being able to do detailed airbrush work like stenciling my mailbox, touching up paint work, or painting a badass mural without rattle cans would be killer. Airbrush pens are tiny though and use very little air so you don't need a large compressor. Thankfully the one I'm using is very quiet, and filters oil out of the air internally so it's well suited to art.

Yes, battery powered is a major reason to buy one of these Ryobi units, likewise if you've already invested in other Ryobi 18-volt One+ series tools. But the air tank capacity does appear to be a bit small. I have a Ryobi drill and yard trimmer that use the 18-volt batteries, i like both of them. I did purchase a plug-in pancake tank compressor because it was cheap, but its tank was too small for car tires and such. Luckily I was able to trade something with a friend and got his old larger tank unit.

Hi Techmoan. I used to work for a compressor manufacturer in my country. It is never suggested to directly use the compressed air from the Ryobi or any air compressor to clean electronics without air treatment. Air treatment would include drying out the air and filtering the air to remove oil carried over from the compressor. Using the air directly from the compressor under certain conditions would cause moisture condensate and would spoil the electronics! so air treatment is necessary. The compressed air can that you buy at electronics store is not compressed air but freon gas with all the moisture removed. You are better off with the blower that you showed in the earlier part of the video as it does not compress air but moves it fast enough to clean stuff.

I use an adult-sized compressor to blow out computers. It cost the same as the puny thing in this video and doesn't require an overpriced battery. Because the tanks and the compressor is of a sufficient size I can blow air with plenty of pressure for several minutes. It is very loud tho. As for the "spraying water" issue, I've never seen that happen but there are filters you can add to help prevent that. Performing routine maintenance is helpful as well.

@South_0f_Heaven_ 4 года назад

Yup air compressor at 150 psi won’t hurt anything, gotta be careful using on keyboards sometimes the keys will fly off. Also CRC Electronic Cleaner is the best I’ve ever used, won’t damage anything.

@alaric_ 4 года назад

All compressors accumulate water inside due to condensation (there are huge pressure and temperature changes happening here), that's why most of them have emptying valve at the bottom. I have learned that before or after using the compressor, opening the valve and letting out the any water is a nice way to prevent the "blowing water" thing happening. Also, as you said, there are filters that collect condensation from the pressurerized air so that fe. when painting, there isn't any water coming where it shouldn't. At worst, i have seen in a relatives compressor that the air tank had insane amounts of water AND rust coming out when i opened it's emptying valve. So it's there for a reason.

@needfuldoer4531 4 года назад

Yeah, once you've got a real compressor, you find all kinds of ways to justify it! I only have the 2 gallon (7 liter) "Fortress" compressor from Hazard Fraught, so it's only provisionally "adult size", but it's rated at over 2 SCFM at 90 PSI and it's quiet enough to keep in the basement of the condo without making the neighbors hate me. Suddenly I've got a bunch of trim work to do, that calls for an 18 gauge brad nailer. Fixing corroded circuit boards? I can do that with a little handheld media blaster/air eraser/engraver. I've already added a 7 gallon aux tank to smooth the duty cycle out... Other stuff like the drill, impact driver, car buffer, weed whacker, and multitool are all Ryobi OnePlus, though. Cheap secondhand tools are plentiful and it's nice having one kind of battery that fits everything. Those electronics dusters are pretty great, too. They're easier to handle than the leaf blower or a hose on the exhaust side of a shop vac.

@South_0f_Heaven_ 4 года назад

For an electronics or an airbrush air compressor I highly recommend trying to find a nebulizer compressor. I got one for free when a bunch of stuff was being moved out of a house. It's easy to adapt a regular quick connect fitting onto the compressor, and you get a compressor that is designed to be super quiet, has adjustable pressure, and also has a really high quality filter built in. The cooling fan in mine is broken so I removed it but it really doesn't need it for the sort of use in airbrushing or electronics so it's extremely silent. No tank, but the hose works as a reservoir to load up more pressure for stubborn dust if needed.

9:30 no, that's a safety valve to protect agains overpressure. I had mine kick in (loud) when my big air compressor didn't stop in time and I had to adjust it to not pass the 9 bar mark.

Rapidly moving air creates static electricity. Not recommended for use on "microchips". Puts them under stress and could "fry" them. I got the reference.

@tylerevans1700 4 года назад

Very glad to know about that little electronics blower, cause in my experience those cans of compressed air are kinda weak and even then they aren't very cost effective. Glad you also mentioned the downsides of a compressor at the end, specifically moisture cause I had thought about using a big compressor of my dad's until he mentioned about the moisture. Makes sense.. Great vid as always!!!

@DownandOutNYC 4 года назад

Many wet dry vacs also can be used to blow air, and of course, they come in many different sizes. You could have bought one of those and have both a home/shop vacuum and blower in one.

@TheBrokenLife 4 года назад

I own 2 shopvacs, a little one to carry around and then a big guy that is the real deal, and I honestly think that little blower he demonstrated would do a better job... and big one doubles as a fairly legit leaf blower. They move a lot of volume, but not much pressure. Or at least that's been my experience with mine.

@compzac 4 года назад

@@TheBrokenLife Thats pretty much my experience as well, lots of volume but no pressure for it, im guessing if you could nozzle the end down it would do better, but really vacuums arent meant for that, they tend to run volume over pressure anyway, as with a vacuum you want more air more flowing quickly then less with more push, i also have a small unit i keep around mostly in the car, it does decent, and i have a large cordless unit at home which also does well for itself, but if i need to clean something off unless its loose material i will always use an air gun and compressor as shop vacs just dont have the clout for that.

@TheBrokenLife 4 года назад

@@compzac Agreed.. Necking my shopvacs down with a "blower" attachment just seems to upset the impellers inside them. You can hear the motor bog down and they run way hotter, yet don't really do much more work. Pretty much any air restriction on a fan is, well, a restriction. FWIW, if you find yourself frequently needing to blow off large areas, I have a Guardair "Long John" air gun that has what looks like a muzzle brake on the end of it, but it's actually a venturi that scavenges extra air volume as the air goes past the tip. It's like a narrower focus leaf blower with more power. It is absolutely fantastic for stuff like blowing grass off a tractor and stuff like that. Highly recommended. It is _massively_ air hungry though so the magic only lasts as long as you have compressor. You can also get them in a ton of different lengths. Mine is 5 feet, which I regret. 4 would be perfect, IMO. I use it to "sweep" my shop at least once a week.

@compzac 4 года назад

@@TheBrokenLife I have a venturi nozzle air gun myself, i use it when im cleaning off leaves and things from cars i work on, no idea what brand i found it at a garage sale, but it works well, and yes in my experience it is quite air hungry, i have to use my large shop compressor otherwise it pizzles out my small pancake compressor pretty quick, with regards to shop vacs yea ive never had good luck trying to make them do more work, they just overheat and either cut out or burn up so ive given up trying, if i want to clean my shop i use an electric leaf blower, if i need some high pressure air i use the compressor.

@TheBrokenLife 4 года назад

Fantastic video! i've toyed with the idea of getting a compressor because i figured those electric gun things would be rubbish (sounds like you did too at the start) but it clearly did the job really well for less than half the price and without constantly stopping for a nap! Will definitely be adding a compucleaner to my "stuff i need for the workshop" list
