I tried using the electric air duster '200-CDADE004' which has stronger wind power than the gas can type and can be recharged and used repeatedly.



An air duster is used to blow away debris that has accumulated in the gaps of keyboards or dust that has gotten into the gaps of camera lenses. Gas canisters are the most common type of air duster, but gas canisters are not only consumable, but also have several problems, such as the need to release the gas when disposing of trash and the inadequacy of using them upside down. So, I found the Sanwa Supply electric air duster ' 200-CDADE004 ,' which is rechargeable, reusable, and has a stronger wind power than gas canister types, so I tried it out.

The contents of '200-CDADE004' are a storage pouch, instruction manual and warranty card, main unit, charging stand, and two nozzles.



The main body looks like this. The size is 70mm wide x 139mm high x 37mm thick, and the weight is 292g.



There is a power button on the front of the unit.



Press and hold the power button to start the device. When the device starts up, the LED above the power button will light up as shown below.



There is a slide switch in the red frame that allows you to adjust the wind power.



There are two types of nozzles that can be attached to the main unit: the standard nozzle on the left and the wide nozzle on the right.



There is a groove at the connection point between the main body and the nozzle, so you can turn it to secure it in place.



This is what it looks like with the nozzle attached. The aluminum body makes it feel heavier than you'd expect, but it has a premium feel that plastic doesn't. It's smaller than a hair dryer and as compact as a glue gun.



The bottom of the device looks like this: There's a USB-C port for charging, and you can also check the serial number here.



The charging stand is as follows: A USB-C plug for charging extends from the center.



The back of the charging stand has a non-slip rubber lining.



When the device is placed on the charger, it looks like this: The LED lights up red while charging, and the nominal charging time is 4 hours.



The storage pouch can hold the main unit and two nozzles.



Below is a video of the 200-CDADE004's operating noise. It's noticeably louder than a gas-canned air duster, but its wind power is also significantly stronger. According to Sanwa Supply, the maximum wind speed of a gas-canned air duster is about 16 meters per second, while the 200-CDADE004's maximum wind speed is 27 meters per second. As you can see in the video, if you set the wind power to maximum and place the unit on a slippery surface like a wooden floor, the wind power is so powerful that it will slide backwards.

Other features include the ability to spray upside down and use in areas where there is a risk of fire, which are not possible with gas canister-type air dusters. In fact, Sanwa Supply lists one of the uses for the 200-CDADE004 as starting a fire at a barbecue, which is almost impossible with gas canister-type air dusters, which are strictly prohibited from use near open flames.



If there's one downside, it's that the nozzle isn't very thin, so it can't be inserted between the keys on a keyboard. While the official parts don't allow you to insert the nozzle between the keys, it seems possible to make your own ultra-thin nozzle by taping the nozzle of a can of compressed air onto the standard nozzle.



There are probably many people who have been stingy with their air duster because they don't have a spare gas canister or the gas is running low. For people like you, we recommend an electric air duster, which can be used to your heart's content anytime after charging.

In addition, '200-CDADE004' is sold not only on Sanwa Direct, Sanwa Supply's direct mail order site, but also on Amazon.co.jp, and the price is 8,280 yen including tax.
