Maybe someone can translate this. It's the only comment on this device. Looks like it only puts out 100cfm.

My ex-wife left a blow dryer here that I'll sell cheaper than that to anyone interested. I'll even throw in a half roll of duct tape for the install.

It'll work as good or better than that thing.

His feedback speaks volumes. He's in it for a fast buck. I wouldn't buy a bag of chips from this guy, probably be past the expiration date. Too bad there's people like him on ebay.

Might be able to make a DC leaf blower with one of those!

Imagine the possibilities......


Toss a 12V 750cca battery in your Jansport and strap that badboy to your back.

Get one of those neon turbo couplers to connect your PCV tubing to the blower.

Screw in some kitchen cabinet handles to the pipe for directional control.

Wire up a nitrous toggle switch.

Flip that sucker on and let the leaves fly!

OK!
Here's the deal. Watch this page and contact any buyers. Get a copy of their dyno sheets and feedback.

Then we'll know for sure......?
