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.
