Shop-Vac 1032000 Mighty Mini Air Mover



Only rated blower of this size/price
So, it's July 1st and air conditioning goes out for part of my office. The part which happens to contain the servers & telecom gear. Building maintenance looked at the unit, contractor looked at the unit -- it needs to be replaced...but given the July 4th holiday, it's not going to happen for at least a week.

Hence, my purchase of these blowers. I'm using these blowers to move air from areas which have working air conditioning to areas where the dead air conditioner is located. So far, so good. Was 86F in the warmest office, now 78F and comfortable. I'd imagine after a few more hours it'll be even closer to normal.

Noise levels: High is louder than acceptable for any great length of time in an office. That said, it's only wind/air movement noise with no motor whine whatsoever. Not an objectionable noise, but it's definitely there. Medium is far quieter and still moves a good amount of air. This is the speed we're leaving them on. Even our most ADHD...

Mighty Mini
Made of that impossible to crack molded polyethylene like the big commercial units. Not high impact plastic. Starts out as a baby with a small whine or faint scrape. (I have two of these). They get quiet when the burrs wear off the squirrel cage inside. Move a LOT of air, mine are 3 years old; so MANY uses.
They'd be worth at least $100-120 to me if I knew how awesome they are.

Awesome little air mover
This little baby puts out more air than all the mini squirrel cage type fans we have ever tried. Super light, small, fits anywhere and does a great job. Cheapest out there too as far as cost goes, but the most well put together air mover for the mini type. Great job Shop Vac!
