Hey everyone, I was wondering if the M18 tire inflator could work as an air duster to help blow off dust and debris from small electronics, like when you're doing repairs? I'm not looking for something powerful like a leaf blower, just a simple solution to replace those compressed air cans.

Yeah, I’ve used my M18 inflator to blow out computers and network switches. It’s not the best but it does the job in a pinch. I find the ball inflator needle works nicely for reaching into heatsink fins, though it struggles with really dirty hardware.
I also use my M12 inflator for cleaning! The pressure isn’t super high, but it’s decent enough to clear out keyboards and other small areas. Honestly, it does wonders for my keyboard!
Same here! Those small areas can be so hard to clean otherwise.
It works for me, but I wouldn't say it's the most effective option out there. Using the ball inflator needle helps, but it’s just alright overall.
I totally get that! Cleaning neglected hardware can be tough without more power.
