Hand held jet blowers

[Dadillac]

So I see the videos of these jet blowers online and am amazed and skeptical at the same time. I am talking about the ones that take the Milwaukee, DeWalt or Makita batteries. They claim to spin at 130,000 rpm and show unbelievable results for drying cars. Has anyone on here bought or used one first hand? Keep in kind that I will not be buying one unless I can get some positive feedback. I currently used my Milwaukee leaf blower and it does an acceptable job. If one of these lightweight blowers does an equal or better job than a leaf blower I may be sold on it. Thanks

That sounds good if you own a jet that you have to dry. Wait--did I misunderstand something here?

I have a hand held Ryobi. Can use this with one hand and have a drying towel in the other.
I don’t use this to dry entire car but mostly when doing rinseless washes where I still do wheels and tires with other cleaner and water/hose. Use it for grill/ moldings/emblems/mirrors/ wheels and tires.
If I use a hose and shampoo and want to blow dry entire car I’ll use my bigger corded blower.

I just take my jet through the touchless then fly it really fast to dry it off.

I rode my Jet Blower to Arby's a little while ago. It was awesome flying over all the morons stuck in traffic.

Unfortunately I am not at liberty to name the make and model at this time ......
