BH-20

Product Details

BH-20 - Goodbye & Thank You!

Our beloved BH-20, the very first battery-operated PPV fan that changed the firefighting industry, will soon be discontinued!

We have under 100 left so when they’re gone, they’re gone!  Contact your dealer for new fan purchase.

We will however be continuing to service them. Better yet, we created new technology to upgrade your older

BH-20’s with a Retrofit Kit (new BH’s come with this new Technology).

The Retrofit Kit includes a Battery + BMS (Battery Management System) that comes in a tray that slips into the same space as your existing battery.

This new technology increases the original 35+ minute runtime to 45-50 minutes. If an older fan has not had a power supply upgrade, we recommend replacing that at the same time.

The Retrofit Kit + Power Supply = $980, but we offer a combo deal dropping it to $920.  Any warranty discounts will also be applied.

So if you love your BH-20 and is your department standard, upgrading is a great option! Contact either your dealer or our Customer Support team for parts service.

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.
