If you have ever been frustrated by canned air running out mid clean or exhausted from manually inflating your outdoor gear, Flextail has engineered a powerful pocket sized solution. Launching on Kickstarter, Blast Air is an ultra compact, wireless charging air system. By packing a high speed aerospace grade motor into a body no larger than a smartphone, it delivers hurricane force winds to handle everything from delicate camera cleaning to inflating a sleeping pad in seconds.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Name and Creator Blast Air Redefining Portable Air Power by tommylee.
What It Is Blast Air is a highly portable, card sized air duster and inflator. It utilizes an aerospace grade brushless motor to deliver extreme wind power for cleaning electronics, starting campfires, and inflating outdoor gear.
KEY FEATURES
Wireless Charging Capability Designed to be always ready, the device charges seamlessly on standard wireless charging pads. Its built in magnetic shielding ensures compatibility with nearly all in car wireless chargers, so it never runs dead while sitting in your vehicle.
Aerospace Grade Motor At its core is a 130,000 RPM high speed brushless motor. It generates wind speeds of up to 65 meters per second and 200 grams of thrust, easily ripping away stubborn dust and grit.
Precision Camera Cleaning Unlike canned air that can damage delicate electronics, Blast Air includes a dedicated Precision Cleaning Kit. Equipped with a 200 mesh filter and a soft silicone nozzle, it delivers pure air that safely whisks micro dust away from sensitive camera sensors and lenses.
Rapid Inflation Producing a massive 1200 liters per minute of airflow, the device can fully inflate a standard camping sleeping pad in just ten seconds. It is equally effective for kayaks, swim rings, and inflatable pillows.
Instant Control and Runtime The device features a 0.1 second instant start and stop response. Smart power management provides three distinct speed levels and allows for up to 60 minutes of continuous runtime on a single charge.
Comprehensive Accessory Kit Every unit comes standard with a custom molded EVA travel case and multiple specialized nozzle attachments designed for high speed inflation, precision cleaning, and high velocity targeting.
REWARDS
Kickstarter Pricing Early backers can secure the Blast Air set at special early bird pricing, which offers significant savings compared to the planned retail cost.
Options The standard pledge includes the Blast Air main unit, the custom EVA carrying case, and the complete set of specialized nozzles.
Delivery The crowdfunding campaign is currently active and fully funded. The Flextail team plans to finalize their manufacturing schedule and begin global shipping once the campaign concludes.
CONCEPT
The core concept is Uninterrupted Portable Power. The creators at Flextail believe that portable air dusters should not be bulky or unreliable. By engineering a device that matches the footprint of a smartphone and pairs it with seamless wireless charging, they aim to create an air tool that is always topped up and ready to blast away dirt or inflate gear at a moment's notice.
INSPIRATION
The project was inspired by the common frustrations associated with traditional cleaning and inflation tools. The engineering team realized that manual air bulbs are exhausting to use, canned air is wasteful and potentially damaging to delicate lenses, and standard battery dusters always seem to be dead when you need them most. They set out to solve these issues by building a premium, aerospace powered tool that lives on your wireless charger, ensuring you always have hurricane force power right in your pocket.
