It was surprisingly good to clean my computer with a simple electric air duster.

Do you clean around your computer?

Gizmodo writer Tom MCKAY proposes an electric air duster that "can be recommended over can spray" in terms of environment and cost.It is said that it blows away dust and small garbage that have accumulated in the gaps in the keyboard with a powerful wind.

This time, I tried "Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro".Here is the review that I actually used.

Why are you reviewing the air duster?You may be wondering.I decided to use the "Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro" because I wanted to avoid it because the can spray-type air spray often used for cleaning PCs is expensive, and it is garbage and is not good for the environment.

According to GRIST, Hydroflurorocarbon (HFC) has been used for can spraying since the International Treaty was banned from the use of chloroflle orchid (CFC) in 1987.In this way, the chemicals "HFC-134A" and "HFC-152A" are included, "1,300 times, 140 times the possibility of climate change in carbon dioxide."The manufacturing process of "HFC-134A" is also considered toxic.It may not be necessary to replace it very often, but if you accumulate it, it should be a good amount.

For that reason, I thought that it could be used as an alternative.First of all, the price of $ 50 may be higher than can spray, but in fact it is cheaper than other companies (for example, $ 86).Equipped with a 500 wat motor, about 2 in 1 minute.While generating a 5 cubic meter air flow, there is no description of functions such as rechargeable batteries and static discharge protection.But when I used it, I found out that it was quite convenient.

Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro

What is this? Basically, a small "fallen leaves cleaner".

How much: $ 50

Favorite place: Long -term costs are reduced.He / she does the job as advertised.simple.Easy.fun.

I don't like it: Attachment is cheap, and the movement is a bit suspicious when set to "high".

｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣には、あらゆる隙間に対応できるアタッチメントがついています。速度設定は2種類。どちらもパワフルです。低速設定で標準ノズルを使うと、音が大きくパワフルで、ほこりやペットの毛などパソコンの隙間に隠れていたちいさなゴミたちをブワーッと吹き出してくれました。

Cooling devices, power supply around and behind the case ... From my experience so far, dust is often bundled than visible and is often hidden in every gap.Look, this street.

これだけパワフルなので｢高｣設定にせずともほこりのかたまりを吹き飛ばしてくれます。電気製品周辺のほこりは、空気の流れを制限し、内部に熱を閉じ込めることがあるので厄介。うちのオーバークロックのRyzen 2950x CPUは空気の流れがわるく、たまに70度という異常な高温に達することもありました。それがこれでほこりをとったあとは、5〜10度と、タスクによってバラつきますがちゃんと低温で動作するように。さらには冷却に使えるケースファンを買って完全に問題解決したのですが、空気の流れがよくなるとまたほこりの蓄積が速くなることもあると思うので、引き続き｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣にはお世話になる予定です。

圧縮空気でケースやコンポーネントのファンをきれいにしようとするときは、必要以上に速く回転させて機械を損傷させる可能性もあるため注意が必要です。ファンを静止位置に留めておくことで危険が回避できるならば念のため気をつけておくのが得策です。いずれにせよ｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣を｢低｣設定でべつの場所に向けているあいだ、ケース内のすべてのファンが回転する…というようなことはなかったです。

Similarly, the risk of damaging components from the blower has been discussed so far.I checked a lot of user reviews, but I couldn't find any evidence that this was a problem.However, it may be a good idea to keep it away from the machine when using it, or to concentrate on a certain place and do not apply air.

もっとも、｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣について気になったのはアタッチメントのほうです。いくつかのレビューによれば、しっかりと取り付けないと飛んでいってしまうこともあるとか（実際、私も数度経験しました）。

In addition, if you use attachments and "high" settings that can be used for more detailed parts, the heat dispersing from the motor may not work, or touching the blower may become hot.From this, it seems that it is not suitable for long use for a long time.There was also a review that sparks popped out of the edge and smelled from the unit.

The dust blown by a powerful wind splatters and is sucked into the intake filter (washing).I don't think it's a design problem, but it may be possible that the machine has become hot.Conversely, if you take this dust frequently, you may not have to worry too much.

さて、そんな｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣ですが、電子機器の内部を掃除するためだけのものではありません。キーボードやマウスに関しては、ほこりだけでなくキーの下に落ちたパンくず、髪の毛といったちいさなゴミも見事に出してくれました。

However, with regard to stubborn dirt on the side (surely sticking to many layers), it was difficult to set the strength or use a brush of attachment.What I want to say is that if the dirt is terrible, it is necessary to clean it with a little more time and time.In the ultimate, you may want to consider a removable and washed silicon cover or a keyboard that supports a dedicated dishwasher.

｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣はそのほかにもあらゆるニッチな場所をきれいにするのに便利ですが、おそらく実際には、汎用の掃除ツールとして使用することがあるかというとそうでもなかったりします。というのも、軽いものや取扱注意なものはすべてほこりと一緒に吹き飛ばしてしまう危険性があるから。

Also, a 3 -meter code is not enough to clean things in the house.I couldn't test this time, but it seems that it can be expanded with air on balloons and tires.So I thought that a little empty can could be blown away, but let's stop.

50ドルという価格のわりに、実際に使える場面が少ないとなると、やはりどうなのかなーと思うところはあるかもしれません。ただ先述の通り、ほかのエアダスターと比べたら安価で手に入りやすく、使い捨ての専用缶スプレーと比べたら数カ月ごとに買い換える必要もないので、長期的に使うとしたら｢Xpower A-2 AirRow Pro｣などの電動エアダスターは検討する価値アリですよ。

Memo

・ Electric dust protection air duster

・ It will be a substitute for can spray.It is powerful, and the longer it is used, the longer you spend.

・ Not a battery type."Static electricity prevention" is not written.

・ Attachment is cheap and can be blown away.

・ It may be troublesome to clean devices such as personal computers.

・ Probably, there is only a small risk of becoming an arc welding machine.
