tony b Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 After Dennis' post about using the defunct hair dryer to jump start his charcoal, I did a search and found this on Amazon. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D5FS7HA I ordered one, for S-n-G's. I've used it several times now and I have to say that I like it. Easy to use, no cords (battery powered), works like a charm. Now I can hit the charcoal with only a 10 second blast from the MAPP torch, then hit the lit spot with this blower with a couple of 10 second blasts, and we're off to the races. Will save some coin on MAPP gas canisters, as AAA batteries are cheaper. Don't know yet how many uses I'll get out of a set of 3 AAA batteries, but I buy them in lots of 40 at CostCo, so I have plenty of them around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyfish Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Nice little fan. It beats getting an extension cord out for a hair dryer if you are not beside an electrical outlet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stile88 Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 That is very nice especially being battery. I use 1500w heat gun you got heat and fan same time after someone metioned it in an earlier post had to give it a try works like a charm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially for something you're going to run for 30 seconds at the most. PITA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
