hello how are you, look I have a question I'm thinking of buying the adams DETAIL SPRAY product but I wanted to know your opinion why I see that it also has something similar chemical guys SPEED WIPE which one do you recommend?
I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. ru-vid.comUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.
I love my Adam's Air Cannon. Very flexible hose that self-expands to like 30'. Nozzle tip. Great CFM at almost 400. Heated. I took it off it's rollers and attached it to the bottom of the top-shelf of my detailing cart. Absolutely love it.
I recently picked up the 765 CFM Ego blower and am very pleased. I couldn’t imagine needing more power, especially with a coated car. Great battery life and performance, and best of all, it’s cordless. I love the dual purpose aspect being able to use it as a car dryer, and household work. Definitely a great investment.
I have the smaller ego blower and it works well but takes too long to dry a vehicle. Great for small areas and wheels. I have an EGO and that is the best one out of all! I modified mine to have a shorty extension and makes using it some much better! Definitely use ear protection because the EGO had my ears ringing for a tad when I was done using it really high up for the roofs of vehicles.
Tip: make sure that the road, driveway, garage floor or whatever your vehicle is parked on is dirt free and wet. Reason: when all this air is blowing around you will blow dust or worse(dirt) back on you freshly washed buggy. Especially make sure it’s dirt free and wet when blowing your wheels. But then again, you’ll figure that out the first time you try blowing air on your car. Bonus: for us snowy folks the air blowing method works great on your car if you got some snow on it. That way you reduce marring/swirls on the paint
I don't have a garage, so any corded dryer is out of the question for me. I've had the EGO 650 CFM unit for well over a year and it's awesome. I can dry my entire Dodge Challenger and there's still a lot of battery charge remaining. I have no need for a second battery. I just saw at Lowe's that there's a higher-powered EGO 765 CFM available that's the same price as I paid for my 650 CFM model.
Hey Pan, good review! Just to add.. My Metrovac Air Force Master Blaster is about eight years old and still going strong. The only part that I’ve needed to replace due to wear and tear was the power cord ($20.00) which bring up the point of longevity. This unit reminds me of the Electrolux vacuums cleaners of the 70’s & 80’s. Those things were built like a tank and were 100% serviceable. Same goes for the Air Force Blaster. So yes, they are expensive but they may last you 20+ years as long as parts are available. Can’t say the same about most modern appliances now a days. Seems everything is designed to last no more than 3 - 5 years then you need to go out and buy something new.
I had to replace the hose as it split by the unit because of the back pressure and heat softened the hose. Taped it up a couple times but it would split further down the hose and finally replaced the hose.
Great video!, I just purchased this past weekend the 650 , convinced the wife to buy the EGO lawnmower the 650 and the weed wacker . The cool think is that the lawnmower comes with a big battery and the fast charger . So now I have two big batteries plus the 2.5 and the fast charger .
Started with a corded leaf blower but honestly, I hated it. It fit the budget at the time, but it was clunky to use , didn't move as much air as I'd like and was hard to get into tight spaces. As soon as budget allowed, I planned to upgrade. Fortunately for me, I recommended to a friend to buy the master blaster or BigBoi for their son. When he left for college and they decided to move, they donated it to me. I know am using the single motor BigBoi with the length hose. The plan is to build out a garage in the next house and at that point I will decide between the big master blaster or the dual motor BigBoi. I'm leaning toward the BigBoi because their hose is far superior, IMHO.
Great review buddy. Your a very positive guy and run a happy channel. Never write to you but gotta say, always on point when discussing products and machines. Good stuff keep it coming! -Jonny in LV
@@PanTheOrganizer Hey Pan. Been following you along time I don’t know when but I’m pretty sure it was from watching Obsessed Garage, then found you. Probably 2016. Really happy for you getting the 911. My dream car! Your great dude keep up your hard work!
I don't have outdoor electricity right now. I went with the 40V Ryobi cordless blower which is 550CFM. Cost me $200 with a battery and charger. It works really well. Gets the car 90 percent dry
Pan as always a great job! You really do mean it when you say “sit back relax and enjoy the show” I am in the market for a blower to dry my Mini and this review was timely as well as informative. I will mention that I purchased a Harbor Freight cordless blower with a 5 amp hour battery for detail drying. You can handle it with one hand and is great for interior dusting, door jambs, under the hood etc. Will be looking at the Ego since our sedan is a large Ford Edge and the power will be needed. Thanks again for a job well done!👍.
The EGO BLOWER is the best no cords or hoses to fumble with. I’ve been using one for several years and it’s great. I find it works best without the long shoot I take it off this way you can get much closer to the cars surface and have better control when moving it around the cars surface without bumping it and I’m only using one hand. Plus when detailing my car at shows I don’t have to worry about needing an outlet.
Yes the 530 is perfectly suited for car drying as well. Especially if your paint has some sort of protection on it. Hydrophobics are key to make the water fly off.
I think for most people the easiest and most cost effective option would be to buy the top of the range blower of whatever brand of tools they use. Milwaukee, Makita etc. Good review anyhow 👍
Agreed! EGO is king when it comes to electric leaf blowers but if you’re heavily invested in a particular battery platform (e.g. Milwaukee M18, Makita 18V, etc.) it makes more sense to buy the leaf blower for that brand. Just make sure the blower puts out at least 400 CFM of air. In our opinion, this is the minimum CFM needed to effectively dry a vehicle.
Hi Pan Just received my 765 blower kit including the 5 Amp battery and charger from the USA Only I could not use the charger as it was USA 120 volts and we in the UK are 240 volts, so I needed to by a fast charger Not used it yet for drying Mt EV6, but can't wait. Thanks Pan Waiting for my Shorty to arrive from ETSY
Hi I have had the master blaster rev for 3 years. I leave it on the wall and purchased an extension hose which is a lot softer, it was £400 in the UK. Great product 👌
Until I found Pans channel I used microfibre towels to dry my sedan. However as a weekend warrior who washes his car twice a month I'll start using my electric toro leaf blower or even my air compressor.
I purchased the Ego 650 and compared it to my Ego 530. For vehicle drying, there is little difference between the two for a ceramic coated vehicle. For other around the house needs, the 650 will give some marginal gains. I didn't see the price difference as justified for my purposes so I returned the 650.
I just picked up the EGO 650 from Lowe's yesterday for $279. They have a 765 cfm version now too for $329. Seems the prices keep dropping because I saw mentions of the 650 for $440 a year or so ago. I also ordered the shoulder strap and the stubby with rubber nose protector for $54 shipped. Plus, I can also use it for crazy stuff like blowing leaves...
Our Blowerbands work with most Makitas too! Have black and grey and working on a Makita teal to match (We have a blue but it does not match the Makita color exactly)
IF you have other Milwaukee tools that use Milwaukee Lith Ion batteries, you can buy an M18 blower w/120 mph & 450 CFM for ~$140. You supply the battery & charger. Milwaukee also makes stubby car drying nozzles to dry out tight spaces.
Interesting. Is it powerful enough to dry an entire vehicle? I have an ultra powerful 650 CFM EGO cordless blower, and some say that the 530 CFM version is not enough, so a 450 CFM Milwaukee??
It works for me with one battery. But I have three (3) Milwaukee batteries for my chordless drill, saw, and LED light. My understanding is that they now have multiple size batteries. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_A-06Fw3Olo.html
I use my Makita 18 volt cordless brushless blower. Already have other Makita tools so I’ve got plenty of 5amp batteries. It’s a really good blower for the garden and blowing water off the car. Variable speed and extremely powerful. It gets used every day around the house.
The Ego is definitely the most versatile. I also use it to blow snow off my car (safer than snow brush). The only situation where it loses out to the Metrovac is to go in tighter spaces, since the airflow is less 'focused'. The Blowerband is definitely a life saver, but it's quite expensive for us Canadians when you factor in exchange rate and shipping, it's 50$ for a piece of rubber.
We wholeheartly agree the costs to ship to Canada are outrageous. I now have a canadian distributor TOC supplies for folks north of the border. (Ahem... Silicone rubber =) )
@@blowerbandco1607 Thank you! I ordered directly from you guys but it's good to know there is a distributor :) I can say in 6 months of use it held up great so far
Thanks for the review and I really couldn't agree more with everything you said. I had Master Blaster Revolution that was great, but ended up selling it in favor of the Ego blower. The MBR was better, yes, but not so much so that it warranted taking up space in my garage vs a tool that I have to have anyway. Also thanks for the tip on the blower band. Have been looking for a product like this!
I have the EGO 530 CFM (love it with the Turbo) and I just bought the Blo-Air RS (not used yet) but ready for spring!!! Good job again Pan with your video
Exactly, and cordless is so much more practical. Pick it, start using it right away, nothing to haul around or wires to worry about. Done using, set it back down. Bingo, done. :)
I filmed this video months ago and the 765 wasn’t available back then and still isn’t where I live. Oh well, I don’t think it’s the end of the world really.
Funny in your demonstrations you showed the EGO blowing entire panels with the other two just details. Speed of the air is not the only determining factor. The volume matters too and from your demos I wonder if the MB and BB can match the EGO.
Do you find that the larger or smaller nozzle openings work better? AS I watched the video, it appeared the the EGO moved the most water the fastest...
re: preferences, the leaf blower seems the best of the bunch....least expensive in the base version and the most versatile...stubby tube would be welcome for maneuverability and the rubberized tip / band seems like a must for any of these
Yeah I made an update with the short stubby nozzles for the leaf blower here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-j7GDpm5hIBU.htmlsi=M4idkYMZVp3WA2i4

Pan I love the ego blower I have the same one to but I am waited for the new ego 765 blower but I noticed that on your ego blower you are using a long sleeve shout I fond one on etsy and Amazon that is have the length much easier to dry your car off then the long shout that you are using check it out
Have the 530 cfm unit that came with my ego snowblower. Works great for the car! If you happen to see that EGO promo it’s great. Two tools for one and it comes with two 5 A batteries!
Very well articulated presentation Pan, thanks very much. The filtered air on the mains powered units maybe to protect the heating elements and or causing a small fire inside bearing in mind they are closer to a possibly dusty floor than the EGO.

Thank you for this and all your reviews. I've been using a Metrovac Air Force Blaster Sidekick and Ryobi 300cfm, 40v blower and they just weren't enough for drying a whole vehicle quickly. I learned Ryobi has a new 730cfm, 40v "Whisper Quiet" blower which is currently priced at the orange big-box home improvement center for $299 USD. It comes with two 40v 4ah lithium ion batteries, rapid charger, and two (replaceable) rubber tips. Ran out and picked one up. It's exactly what I needed to up the drying game. Tip: If you are US military or veteran, you can get 10% off the purchase price.
Thanks for sharing Brent! And if I analyze what you wrote, it seems you're in the military? I want to personally thank you for your service to your nation. I have much respect for people who serve to protect their countries.
Thanks again Pan, great video totally enjoyed it and learning the difference you have found between each unit you have. I use a leaf blower myself just to remove the most water and then drying towels. Please Stay Safe and Strong my Dear Friend

I got the Adams blower, it works fine with warm air. Wheels roll well. So I am happy with this. I also have a stihl battery blower which also does a good job.
@@NickVetter Dedicated blowers are major source of noise pollution. If I find that the blower from the wet-dry vacuum does not fo a good job I will use the drying aid-towel combo.
I appreciate this informative video. I'm a strong believer that you get what you pay for, and strive to buy quality every time. We'll be looking at one of these units in the future to replace my current unit, thanks pan!! 👍🇨🇦
I just bought the Ego POWER+ at Lowes with 765 CFM and 200mph for $329 (minus 10% military discount). Can't wait to put it through its paces. This one is new for 2022.
I have the 40-volt 600 CFM RYOBI which is probably the most quiet blower you can buy at 55 Decibels. I bought this model specifically because Ryobi's other Whisper series run at 2 or 4 decibels higher. I also have the quietest gas-powered blower, the discontinued Husqvarna 356BTX 177 mph 766 CFM at 64 decibels.
Robby C. Hi Pan: I plan on purchasing the Ego 765 . Is there any benefit to using a drying agent with a blower? I will be getting a new C8 in a few weeks and I am not sure on paint protection at this time. I'm considering a stand alone graphene over ceramic/graphene coating, not sure if I want to risk problems doing the coatings. Looking forward to your suggestions.
You wouldn't use a drying aid while you are blow drying the car. It doesn't work that way. You would blow dry the car, and then you finish with a drying aid and microfiber towel to pick up any residual water and boost gloss/slickness. The blower is simply there to dry 95% of the car super quickly. The last 5% is where you towel dry for a perfect result.
My Stihl leaf blower works outstanding. I put a soft nose on it so it won't scratch. Dries the vehicles, cleans the patio, cleans the 300 foot driveway, cleans the garage and cleans the sidewalks all for half the price and the battery also works in the Stihl chain saw.
Thanks Pan; Great video as always. TWO QUESTIONS: 1) Why do you have two powered blowers? 2) I noticed in the videos that you are wearing ear protection while drying. I've noticed my EGO makes a lot of high pitched noise and when I'm drying the roof, it's right by my ears. Can you comment on what you use and why? Perhaps your next video could be personal protection recommendations? (Ear, gloves, clothing, etc).
I always try to use ear protection regardless of which blower I use. They are very loud. I spoke about personal protection equipment in a recent video on the top 20 detailing mistakes to avoid. The reason I have many blowers is the same reasons I have thousands of detailing products. It's a detailing channel. I like testing stuff and presenting my best finds to my audience. :)
Pan has very good info filled videos! I was actually looking at getting a leaf blower as a car dryer so you wouldn’t have to do with cords & other stuff
Pan, Thank you for another great video. I have the EGO Blower and almost all of their other pieces of equipment and I love every one of them. The Blower seemed to pull the most power even over my lawnmover. I agree you only get about 10 minutes with one battery UNTIL one day by accident I hit the release on the battery, it disconnected and I reconnected it. I had another 10 minutes. I am able to do this up to 3-4 times on a single charge battery. I watched videos of people tearing them down for repairs and there is a microboard inside. The batteries are highly protected against heat with shutdown settings that cannot be changed. They are designed apparently to show the charge is lower than it is so you don't overheat them running them. However, I am able to disconnect and reconnect the same battery and actually use the machine multiple times without having to charge it. My batteries also never got hot doing this. As much as I love EGO, I think they set these up to have people purchase more batteries even though they didn't need them. Also by having the settings like this, all of your batteries last longer because they aren't completely discharging. If you can, the next time you use your EGO blower and the battery depletes, disconnect and reconnect it and see if the blower works again. I've been doing this for 3 years now. Best of luck to you as always.
Very interesting! I didn't know this about the batteries. Thanks for sharing the tip! I can still dry my entire vehicle on one charge, but it's good to know for any larger SUVs or trucks.
@@PanTheOrganizer I have a black 2017 Silverado and it requires 2 cycles of that 7.5 Amp hour battery and then I even have battery life left. By the way I’ve done this with my 5 amp and 2.5 amp hour batts too.
If you own a black Silverado, I hope you watched my black Silverado Z71 full detailing video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g2FPiPkG4MI.html
@@PanTheOrganizer i have not seen that one yet but I can assure you that I will. For some reason I missed it. Endless thank you’s for sending me the link. Have a great day!
The 40 volt blower from worx (canadian tire or amazon $300 to $350 can, or bare tool if you have batteries from other tools for $199) works pretty good for me. When buying a consumer grade blower miles per hour are more important than cfm for car drying. I should say worked however as the switch no longer seems to be working, will be testing out their 5 year warranty. This also has a battery charge meter. Another plus side is the batteries are usable in other worx devices such as trimmers etc. Canadian tire specs rates it at 164 miles per hour air speed. There is also a 20 volt 130 miles per hour version sub $200 but I don't know how effective or long lasting one 20 volt battery will be. The 40 volt drys my car off with still plenty of juice, when it worked LOL.
If you have access to 120v power just grab a Worx Turbine 600. They are only $60 and work amazing. That is less than 1/6 the price of any options listed and provides 95% of the performance.
I bought the EGO 530 after seeing your first video. I do a quick micro-fiber towel dry and then go with the EGO. That seems to work better than trying to dry the entire car with the EGO. I live in a house, so I have other uses for the EGO.
Really? Do you have some sort of paint protection on the paint? Wax, sealant or coating? If yes, it should be way quicker with a blower. For me, I can't even compare the speed of my blower vs towel drying... But then again, I had the 580 CFM before, and now have the 650 CFM plus the two most powerful corded blowers on the market, so they do generate lots more air flow and power. Perhaps the 530 is underpowered for the task?
Just got the 615. My issue is the water just blows side to side and I’ve yet to figure out a good technique. I still get some streaking of dried water. Any tips?
Shorter extension for the Ego are available on Etsy. I have one and it works excellent. Much cheaper also than the STILL not available Obsessed Garage unit.
This is a good video because I have been looking at other options than my drying towels and air compressor. I feel like the cordless model would be the most convenient. Thank you for the video.
I’ll be getting the 765 CFM blower. I have been using the electric leaf blower. Cord gets in the way!! Thanks for the tip on the stubby nozzle. Great idea from Matt. Will be getting one of those too with the rubber tip.
