METROVAC DataVac® ESD Safe Pro Series MDV-1ESD, Compact Computer Vacuum & Blower for Electronics, Anti-Static, HEPA Filtration, and Durable

The vacuum is certainly strong enough for picking dust off of electronics, keyboards, etc. including on the interior of the case, where it can reach. The attachment surfaces avoid the static buildup that worried me when using regular vacuum attachments.I don't use the blower for drying, but for something like a radiator in a liquid cooled system the blower can clear it out even if the placement is unreachable without disassembly. Obviously, this has no chemicals to worry about depositing on electronics. It helps to have a room air filter turned up to max when doing this.

The vacuum works great. It did a nice job of cleaning PC. It comes with many accessories and extra bags. It has plenty of power to get the job done. A reasonable price also ,about $220

I collect and repair vintage audio equipment, test equipment, and computer equipment. All this old gear arrives filled with decades of dust. I bought this vacuum cleaner for dedicated use at my electronics workbench. Typically, I vacuum everything I can, starting with the bare hose, then the large brush, then the small brush. When I can't vacuum any more dust, then I reverse the hose and blow out more dust! Then I repeat the whole procedure at least once more. I like having this small but powerful vacuum cleaner dedicated for this kind of work.The only cons are the price and the fact that holding or wearing it is unwieldy. I generally just leave it on my floor at my workbench. The hose generally reaches where I need it to.

Filled up some balloons and let them roll around on carpet that hasn't been vacuumed in a while, and they don't appear to be picking up dust and hair.There's probably better ways of measuring static buildup, but balloons are always nice to have around to brighten up the place. The shoulder strap doesn't have anywhere to attach to, so there isn't much point to it.

This vacuum barely has any suction. Sadly, I am passed the return date, but I would not recommend this to anyone.

I havent used it yet but my buddy used it on his PC and his son on his PC. They tested out the suction first and I told them its for the puters only! I really hope they listen and I cant wait to use it when I get it back.

This model (MDV-1) does NOT appear to have any HEPA filtration. It has that listed in the description and features on this model's Amazon page, but when I got the vacuum, there's no mention of HEPA anywhere, and no place for a filter other than the paper vacuum bag (which may be very good, but isn't a HEPA filter). Doing more reading elsewhere confirms that other more expensive models are the ones with HEPA filters -- so when that's listed under "about this model," it's misleading. I'm glad I discovered that before vacuuming lead and other heavy metal dust from my electronics.Other than that, the build quality seems excellent, so I'm sorry that I have to return it. I suspect I'd give it more stars if I didn't require better filtration -- my low rating is purely for inaccurate advertising for something very important.

Okay, I felt dumb for having to ask support how is this device esd safe or what makes it esd safe - as in how is it any different from me just using an esd strap while using the vaccum. The response back was really unhelpful though. Support replied back that for it to be esd safe the other end of the strap should be connected to the screw on the vaccum. Um… that screw has a rounded head and the clamp will not stick on it. There is no lip to get the teeth under or anything. Somewhat disappointing for the price of this unit that the suction and blowing power even when using the tiny nozzle is actually not that impressive and doesn’t do a very good job of getting dust out of crevices nor mesh. While it can give you a decent general cleaning it is far from detailed cleaning.
