Product Details

Leveraging both size and power, BlowHard has created a line of fans, that fill a spectrum of needs, from highly maneuverable to extreme performance, and as well as fans for light jobs, through to the most demanding.

In the BlowHard line-up of fans, the Commando falls into the high-performance category and was literally designed to replace gasoline-powered fans. Not only did we scale up the size of the shroud and blade for a huge airstream, but also gave it a huge battery with 1073 watt-hours to deliver ultra-performance.  This is similar to 5 large 12AH or 10 medium 6AH swappable batteries running all at the same time!

BlowHard fans are adjustable speed, so you can turn it down for lighter jobs, but when your situation requires serious power and control to pressurize huge structures and push massive amounts of CFM through it at top speed, the Commando has your back!

Wheel Kit

To help with ground maneuverability, the Commando Wheel Kit is a great option for this larger, more powerful fan. Because the wheels and handle open and close, you have the option to keep them tucked in for carrying the fan upstairs or opened up to wheel on the ground. This unique design also keeps the size of the fan compact for optimal storage on the apparatus.

Squirt

While the Squirt sports an ultra-small footprint, it also excels in performance. This is accomplished through our BlowHard Design Trifecta: High-Flow Jet Technology, Ergo- Fold, and Opti-Max: three important technologies and designs that give a BlowHard fan big performance in a small package (Check out our Technologies page). The Smart-Tec high-capacity battery provides ample energy storage for both high power output and extended run time, while the High-Flow Expansion Jet allows Squirt to perform as if it is much larger than it actually is. The Smart-Tec Control System displays remaining battery run time as well as Thrust and CFM levels dynamically as it’s adjusted.
