Pro tip:
These are awesome. Works way better than a can of air and you only have to buy one. Also great for cleaning keyboards/remotes.
Shame the price keeps rising as these used to be half the price, but I still recommend it.
I worked in a casino for six years, repairing slot machines for two of those. I know a thing or two about cleaning electronics that have been subjected to heavy tobacco smoke.

Had one at my last job and loved it.
Not a bad deal, but personally I'd put the money towards a metro datavac.
No?

Don't vacuum out a computer. There is such a high risk of damaging components. All it takes is for the vacuum to create static and hit one of the components and your computer now has issues.
Use a duster, canned air or something meant for cleaning the inside of a computer. You also don't want something that has extreme high pressure too close to components.
You could even damage components by touching a sensitive spot while the part is in your hands, outside of the case and not turned on. You would likely not feel anything either. The threshold to damage components is significantly lower than the threshold where you will feel the shock.
I personally use this beautiful thing on my computer to clean it out. I've never purchased a can of air ever since.
> Maybe a link? I searched amazon eduster and nothing comes up.
This is the exact model I have, but its been superceded by a new model.

The cheapest one I see on Amazon is the EasyGo CompuCleaner that Worstguy656 linked already.
I haven't but canned air in the better part of a decade.
Data Vac is just a brand name (or model, or something) of a handheld air compressor designed/marketed to PC air dusting.

I use this every time. But you MUST turn off any electronic device you want to blow dust out of it, it's powerful.
https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Metro+Vacuum+ED500P+DataVac+500-Watt%2C+0.75-HP+Electric+Duster&qid=1574714913&s=hi&sr=1-1-catcorr
If they are so concern about time, I'd do it at after hours and charge different rate.
I have this model and it works well. You can usually find them on sale for $40-$50 if you're not in a hurry to buy. As the amazon page states, they're more economical because it's a one-time purchase and then pennies of electricity over the lifetime of it. It is greener though because it doesn't create a waste product and presumable obviates the demand for several cans of duster in the future.
The biggest downside is that these things are loud as fuck. If you want to be super cautious, some foam earplugs are in order. Regular headphones are probably sufficient. Most people would use them without anything covering their ears and be just fine anyway.
Just getting it up off the floor can help a lot. There are also these.
Don't waste your money on those air cans. They can get expensive if you keep buying them, and you'll have to let them cool down, because they get cold, and start to lose pressure over time of use.
Get one of these. I have one, and it's amazing. It does a better job dusting your PC, and it doesn't get cold, or lose pressure from long use. Not to mention, it'll be cheaper in the long run. Also, it's environmentally friendlier than those cans too.
Just a warning, it'll be loud, but it's very powerful.
Buy yourself a DataVac I got mine a few years back, when they were $30-35. No sure why the price is so damn high on these now but they are invaluable if you have tech and need to clean it out without buying a ton of compressed air cans.
Datavac
yes indeed, a "datavac electric duster" (first stage of most repair jobs done in my dusty emporium)
I have been using this for a while. It is a pretty great device, a lot of the attachments make cleaning my pc a breeze.
I just don't think it would be worth it though if I ONLY used it for computer dusting. I keep it in the garage and get tons of use out of it for woodworking and cleaning car parts.
If you are only going to use it for computer cleaning. Just stick to compressed air. It would take years to pay you back. And by then it might be out of warranty and broken.
If you're referring to this it's fine. If not, I wouldn't risk it. These electronic dusters are designed for the purpose they fulfill.
An electric leaf blower more expensive around $30 but will last longer than cans of air. I see people recommend the DataVac Electric Duster but it's more expensive at around $60.
Here you go
The DataVac was probably one the best purchases I've ever made. It's super powerful, I just used it last night to dust my equipment.
I picked this up and it woks great http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001U899HQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1457680629&amp;sr=8-2&amp;pi=SX200_QL40&amp;keywords=electric+duster&amp;dpPl=1&amp;dpID=41oNE2XwwwL&amp;ref=plSrch

Just don't turn the can upside down or at any extreme angle when you're spraying it and don't spray it into your PS4 when it's on and running. (Turn it off, unplug it from the wall for a few minutes).
Instead of compressed air, I just bought one of these which has already paid for itself in how much dusting I've done on my electronics.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001U899HQ
*and since you're asking about this, some additional tips - you'll want to clean the outside first (with a soft/microfibre rag and q-tips for the inner edges) then maybe use a vaccuum cleaner w/ attachment to suck out any of the loose dust first.
There is a risk for static and moisture. I recommend buying a specific electronic duster to be the safest.
There is the Metro Datavac: https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ
I went through my order history and cannot find it, so I looked on amazon and can't find it either which kinda worries me. I did find similar ones but they are listed as $60. I would pay that in a heartbeat for how well it works and how often I clean my PC.

This is all you need. You won't regret it.
I roast with a heat gun in a breadmaker. The breadmaker just stirs the beans while all the heat comes from the heat gun. It is very fun. Clean up kinda sucks, but that's life.
I'd say 5/10 of my roasts are amazing. Better than buying from local professional roasters. I recently got a delicious malted chocolate taste from a Burundi. Seriously yummy. I've gotten blueberry and raspberry from Ethiopians. Sweet and delicious coffee.
4/10 are decent. I'm drinking one right as I type, an Ethiopian, that is... interesting... it has a lime flavor. It's definitely dialed in, not sour or bitter. Not particularly sweet. It's good, but not great. It's about as interesting as what I could buy from a local roaster... a little less interesting/delicious though.
1/10 are disasters. Over or under-done, "off-flavored," just something went completely wrong. Sometimes they're still salvagable... I have a VERY dark-roasted bean that I put a couple in as a blend with other Central/South American non-fruity coffees for dessert drinks. I will probably just cold brew it in a couple weeks. Brewed on its own it is just way too dark for me. It's probably a French roast. I've also roasted one so lightly that it turned pale and never really cracked. Tasted like lipton tea. Had to just toss it.
Overall, I highly recommend heat gun method if you're into the idea at all. It's surprisingly easy and fun once you have your set-up.
PS- you need to make sure you have a cooling solution too. I use a datavac that I already had (https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1522274084&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=datavac&amp;dpID=418XjHwHhgL&amp;preST=_SY300_QL70_&amp;dpSrc=srch)
And I just put the beans in a colander, put a plate on top, and blow the heat off them.
Good luck!

There's an attachment on this that's a brush. It's pretty amazing.
I would recommend, that instead of spending heinous amounts of money on terrible for you and the environment compressed gas canisters, get a blower, like this, or get a small air compressor and a blower attachment. no noxious gasses, and all dust gets blown away, over and over.

Get a Data Vac and do it yourself and never buy canned air again.
Get a proper ESD safe unit like a DataVac, seeing as you're going to be using it on customer machines.

Cannot recommend it enough. I've dusted dozens of computers with it, even dusted out an old piano. The thing works like a champ. I can't go back to canned air.

Metro also offers products with antistatic options, but I've never been concerned, I don't think it's much of a real danger for PC's maybe if your dealing with extremely sensitive equipment. Otherwise I don't think the air is likely to carry a high enough charge if any at all of PC's.
As for air compressors I'd be more worried about moisture which can be solved by purging the air after every use or getting a filter.
I never had issues with compressed air.
I personally moved to a datavac about 4 years ago and have never looked back. They were $60 at the time but even at $70+ I think they're totally worth it. You can use the things for so much more then just blowing out your pc.

This is better than canned air.
My favorite tool for the task is a DataVac - pretty much a high intensity blower. It’s stronger than canned air by a long shot, and even blasts of that extra ‘sticky’ dust. Kinda pricey though ($80 USD)
Dry Fiber + Friction = static so don’t use the wipes you were talking about. Anything you’re going to be rubbing against components should be lightly saturated in rubbing alcohol.
Canned air works alright, especially if you’ve only got a light amount of dust.
Most will recommend using a canned air duster (like this). The only thing I hate about them is that they're inefficient for using over long periods of time and aren't cost effective. I'd recommend using a blow vac like this.
I use my Datavac that I already have from being a computer nerd, great for blowing out my immersion cooler and other lines, and it's nice and portable compared to most air compressors. That does the bulk of getting them dry.
If it helps, I've used the metro datavac and it works really well, may be worth looking in to.
For electronics you want a blower, not a sucker.
https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ
How much are you looking to spend?
Metro makes a few products, Datavac. They are around $70- $100, but they aren't heated. I've got This Guy And it's pretty much a mini leaf-blower. Metal housing, not sure it would handle too many "drops", but it seems reasonably well built.
There are some car detailing products are also heated, like the Metro Master Blaster that produced a lot of heated air. Not as hot as like a heat gun, but they will definitely dry things.
Vacuum cleaners are supposed to be pretty bad for some reasons, but my mom used one when I was a kid and we never had any problems on that front. These days though, I use one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ
&#x200B;
They are a little pricy, but they do a good job and you won't have to deal with replacing canned air.
&#x200B;
I'd also recommend a small brush for getting the fans.
&#x200B;
EDIT: https://www.amazon.com/Brushes-Portable-Cleaning-Keyboard-Interior/dp/B07CQH78NS
&#x200B;
Something like the toothbrush looking one will do good for cleaning fans off. Alternatively you can just use a cheap toothbrush.
Air compressers contain moisture I thought? I always avoid using these and actually bought an electric blower to use to clean my pc... no risk of moisture and no depleting/polluting the earth with the canned air. (https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=sr_1_sc_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1473697371&amp;sr=8-3-spell&amp;keywords=electric+caned+air) usually you can find these cheaper too
I bought an electric duster to save on disposable air cans. Also, don't have to stop every two minutes because the can is too cold or lost of pressure.
I think getting one of these is a better idea. They're stronger than compressed air and built like a tank. If you're not holding on to it tightly, it will kick itself out of your hand when you turn it on. I tell people who use it for the first time to make sure you have a hold of it before even plugging it in. It's got a long cable so most of the time thats not an issue, and it comes with a few attachments to make cleaning smaller things easier.
Also make sure you put your finger into your fans before hitting them with this thing because it will spin them up quick and spin them faster than they should be. It could destroy the fan or send an electrical current back into your board if you don't. Compressed air can even do that, but this things got some ass on it and will destroy them. I'd say is nearly on par with an air compressor.
personally I bought this a few years ago, open the case up and blow it out every couple of months. Though I really need to consider a modular powersupply since dust likes to hide behind the cords.

I've had one for a while now and it works wonders for keyboard, case, cats, small plant matter in the driveway, etc.
But seriously, it's great.
I would recommend spending more, one time up front, and getting a snall blower instead of spending a bunch over your lifetime on compressed air.
This for example is great for cleaning PCs. I'm sure you can find cheaper alternatives elsewhere, but this is what I've used for years.
I would recommend just buying one of these.
I use a Metro Vacuum ED500P DataVac 500-Watt, .75-HP Electric Duster https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001U899HQ/
Dust is nothing really to worry about. You just need to clean it out every now and again. You can use something like this instead of buying those compressed air cans.
I use a pool pump. It might be as powerful as the one I linked but it does the job ok. I may pick up that duster at some point when I can afford too.
Buy a little spray bottles like this. Then fill them half with rubbing alcohol and half distilled water. Then just use dust fee cloth. You can also buy a bunch of them give them away as gifts. Super easy and cheap!
I buy and sell some electronics. I have use this spray and never had any problems. That spray combined with this electronic duster and I'm set for life!
i bought a metro vac from amazon years ago. got in on sale for around 45. it has paid off with cleaning 4 very dusty pc's every few months
I bought similar electric duster about a year ago called DataVac and it's so much better compared to compressed air cans that get cold and lose pressure the more you use them. The first time I used this thing dust was flying out places the compressed air could never get to. Works great on other stuff around the house too.
Get that nasty stuff away and get this instead.
You need this.
I'm not so sure a leaf blower is a good idea, but I have one of these. https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=datavac&amp;qid=1574406431&amp;sprefix=Data&amp;sr=8-3
Best purchase I ever made. I take both of my rigs outside and dust them out twice a year.
Friends don't let friends go without buying a DataVac Duster
I've had mine over 4 years now... best PC investment I have made in a long time.
http://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ
All the advantages of compressed air without any freezing or residue. This thing works wonders on water cooling radiators and deep fins on heat sinks alike.
this is an awesome device.. like canned air plus some, I bet it would work perfect for keeping this clean!

I clean the interior of my PC about every 2 months with a DataVac. As some people already posted, this can be found here.
Now, for your photo. Yes, crevices of peripherals can get very nasty. I am actually surprised someone didn't post this yet, but Super Clean High Tech Cleaning Compound is the bees knees. I use this stuff all the time.
What it is, is a slime like pliable substance that sticks to small particles. You can roll it over keyboards, mouses, in crevices, over fan grills, etc., and it will pull all the gunk out. I have quite a few packs of these in my desk.
Happy cleaning.
I use datavac and it has been very good:

Instead of compressed air, I would purchase a powered blower. It's a lot more powerful and last a practically a lifetime. https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=sr_1_43?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1522214073&amp;sr=8-43&amp;keywords=duster+air
I haven't purchased compressed air in years
Has anyone used those electric dusters, such as this?
I was wondering if they make the same kind of air pressure or better as canned air.
First thing I would do is scan for any viruses. Get Malwarebytes and use that as well.
If nothing comes up with those, I would open up your PC and clean the dust out. Preferably with a PC Vac. Something like this.
If none of that works, you'll might want to think about replacing hardware. Maybe getting a new HDD or switching to an SSD if you don't already have one.
I usually blow them off with a Metro Datavac blower:
https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1497029449&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=ed500
Then I use rubbing alcohol 70% for a clean, and 90% for a final wipe.
Canned air is for rookies.

Not sure why but this listing has a different picture for the label than other listings, like the amazon one here. But the other pictures are the same and the model looks the same. Can anyone confirm if there are different models and a reason not to get this one?
Same as above except use this: Metro Vacuum ED500P DataVac... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001U899HQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Again not kidding.
This is a replacement for canned air and is way more powerful and can be used around the house as well
Has anyone used a portable vacuum like this one to clean their records? https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=as_at?slotNum=3&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;linkCode=g12&amp;linkId=cbcf53c926bb2163b4c6ea5759f8c3e0&amp;imprToken=mCPo3.kD7.wc2LUERuWufQ&amp;creativeASIN=B001U899HQ&amp;tag=fabathome0f-20
When you use compressed air, make sure your PC is off. Put your finger in your fan then shoot the air because you can wreck your fans by making them spin like crazy. Happened to me years ago.
If you don't want to keep buying compressed air, you can invest in a vacuum. This blows air like crazy, I bought one back when they were like $50-$60, works great but it's a little loud.

Its not the cheapest method but I have had great luck with this thing so far.
Having it open like that probably makes it way easier to clean. Also that "case" comes with a side panel.

This is my favorite air blower. I now have 2 of them. Very powerful, heavy duty, muliple attachments, and great for lots of things. Easily pays for it's self if you were buying compressed air.

I love this, have one at work.
I'm trying to get one of Metro Vacuum ED500P DataVac 500-Watt, .75-HP Electric Duster ... Pretty good ratings, not wasteful like other options and you can use it on other stuff. Other than that it's pretty much clean 'em or put em in glass
I thought these were pretty well known in computer enthusiast forums..

I have dust filters on mine too but removed them: https://imgur.com/gallery/dOnsV9m (scroll near the middle of album to see them)
I found the temps dropped 5C without the filters.
Instead I have been using this to clean the rigs

One of these is a good start. :)
Others have recommended this and it would work quite well, and you wouldn't have to worry about water in the tank of the compressor.
Consider getting an electric duster instead of canned air.
Something like this
In my opinion they are simply easier to use. You'll pay more upfront, but you'll never need to buy compressed air while you have it.
Not if you had it on cool. The best option is to buy an electric air duster such as this: https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500P-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001U899HQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1505023931&amp;sr=8-3&amp;keywords=Datavac+air+duster
It makes it a lot easier.
