    'Camping kit' is clearly the buzz-word/term of the day when it comes to cordless tool bundles. It's a bit odd when one of the main items in a 'camping kit' is a 'workshop blower'.

    What next? A 'workshop Kit' that includes a tent … for when you just can't be a##ed driving home from the workshop?

    • +10

      I think that's because the blower can also be used to inflate the air mattresses

      • +15

        Stoke the fire

        • I wish the trigger switch wasn’t just on/off. Would be way better for fires

          • +1

            @Lolitsjoel: I went on a campout where someone had an ozito blower with a variable throttle. I went and got one for the exact same purpose but couldn't find the same model. Sometimes the binary of/off is too strong to just get a fire started. Anyone know of the item I'm after?

            • @Hinee: Perhaps an older model. Looks like a few of the promo pics have a version with a black switch (probably the throttle) above the handle. But the actual product doesn't have it.

              The Jet Blower has a throttle, but might be a little overkill for starting a fire…

              • @NigelTufnel: I've used the workshop blower and the jet blower on fires, jet blower is super overkill.
                I also keep one of these in my car all the time too. I've used it to stoke fires when I've forgotten the workshop blower. It's very handy to take camping too!

            • @Hinee: https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-pxc-18v-cordless-variable-…

              This one is located in the power gardening equipment isle. Can only get it bundled with a 4ah battery and charger which makes it rather expensive at $189. Works about 2/3 as good as the cheap petrol one I got from Kmart years ago.

              • @JIMB0: I've got the non variable speed version of that already. I'm 99.9% sure the one I saw was of the workshop blower variety. I'm resigned to the fact I'll never find the answer to this question hah.

                • @Hinee: One thought - are you sure it was Ozito?

                  I ask because a friend has Milwaukee tools, and the black and red colour scheme means some tools look very similar to the Ozito ones.

                  And the Milwaukee Workshop Blower has variable speed control and looks very similar to the Ozito.

                  https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/Power-Tools/Vacuums-a…

                  But yeah otherwise like NigelTufnel noticed, perhaps an older version of the Ozito had variable speed control. Now I want to retrofit it to mine. A cheap PWM speed controller with potentiometer style control should be possible to mount inside the unit easily enough.

                    @Prong: This is almost certainly the answer - thanks!!!

            • +2

              @Hinee: I have the DeWalt
              https://www.bunnings.com.au/dewalt-18v-li-ion-cordless-blowe…

              Variable speed slider AND trigger. But if you're in the Ozito ecosystem already, then sorry, the suggestion won't help.

          • @Lolitsjoel: The AEG and Ryobi workshop blowers have an analogue trigger, and would be perfect for this. Obviously more expensive than the Ozito though of course.

            I have the Ryobi, and I actually use it as a leaf blower with the AEG extension tube on the end. Probably the tool I use to the most. Very powerful for its size.

            • @BrotherEstapol: The Ryobi one was on special with a 4AH battery for $99 earlier in the year. Would be good if they came out with that again.

            • @BrotherEstapol: yeah I unforunately didn't know until I took it camping to try haha

            • +1

              @BrotherEstapol: i got the AEG blower. half its use is for starting charcoal chimneys with heat beads these days.

      • I have this blower. It worked reasonably well on a small air mattress with a one-way valve, but was easily overwhelmed by a larger one. It doesn't cope well with any amount of back-pressure (it can't inflate a balloon, for example) and volume escapes poor tolerances around the nozzles, which is why I've previously mentioned that I prefer the 2- in-1 inflator/pump (and I seem to be the only one) for just about every task except blowing dust and light debris.

    • +11

      I use mine to blow out the sand and dirt from my tent.

      Funny thing is this is exactly what I bring camping for many years now

      • +1

        I was expecting a huge reaction to your comment 😂

      • +1

        yep, works a treat for beach sand

    • Not sure why the negs, I agree.
      All it's missing is a portable spa with attachments for those camping days that you just need a good soak.

    • +1

      It's just a name, you don't need to take it so literally.

      The blower is a great little tool for starting/boosting camp fires and cleaning up your site.

  • Would the USB charger Work on a laptop?

    • Probably not.

    • +1

      I gutted an ozito USB charger and put one of these in it.
      60w USB c PD!

      • This or heymix?

      • Why gut it? I added a short cable and 5.5mm DC plug to mine. And then a jack -> car socket adapter.
        Most car USB power converters will accept 12-24V, but might not support the 20V output required for many laptops.

        But older laptops with 19V/20V DC chargers can take the voltage direct from the 18V (nominal) powertool battery. You just need to solder the right cable.

        • +1

          Because I'm not just using it for a laptop, and wanted a neat solution (I have 3d printed power headers for batteries etc with car sockets/anderson plugs). With this solution I could line the pulled apart car adapter with one of the usb port holes in the ozito USB adapter so I only had to cut a small USB C recess above it.

          Now I have a 2 port (USB A/USBC) power bank that I can swap batteries on when they deplete.

          For me this is simplier, but each to their own.

  • +4

    i always take a leaf blower when i go camping in the great aussie outdoors!

  • +1

    Most of the Ozito 'kits' include a battery plus charger. Missing in action.
    I always have my workshop blower to inflate air mattress and kayak. Great for a quick clean up in caravan or tent but it doesn't 'suck'. Great to encourage a reluctant camp fire.
    The torch lasts forever on a 18v battery but the single led doesn't give off much light.

    • "With an 18V 4.0Ah Battery and Compact Fast Charger included, you’ll be ready for your next adventure straight out of the box."

  • -2

    This isn't really an alternative, it's a completely different product if it's missing a chainsaw and an impact driver.

  • Recently bought the blower for getting sand and dirt out of the tent, stoking fires and drying the underside of tents/tarps when packing up. Was very handy. I find the workshop light more practical than the torch though. Esp for setting up in the dark or lighting a gazebo. Prob gonna get the USB charger next. Can't see us using the fan though.

    • +1

      The fan is awesome! I use it all the time at home. Its super quiet, runs for ages on the lower setting and you can just move it around with you.
      Can hang it up on stuff too.

      • Do you use it camping though? I guess it might be useful if you are camping in the middle of summer with 27 degree nights. But otherwise we try not to be in our tents in the heat of the day.

    • The build definitely feels like it's $30 or even cheaper but for that price, it's pretty good value for what it is.

    • Yeh I think the torch is junk. I have plenty of small torches that are probably brighter and definitely easier to carry than that thing.
      Likewise wouldn't worry about the USB charger either. Got plenty of powerbanks to do the job.

      I do take the work light though, hung up high on a tree it lights up the whole camp ground and a 4Ah battery lasts a long time at half power while still being very bright.

  • Is the charger a 12v one or a 240 volt one?
    If it's 240, it's useless camping out bush.

    I know the ryobi is 12v charging, that why "real" campers buy them.

    • 240V AC according to the manual. Useless!

      • I keep an inverter in my car, but yeah. Useless for camping. Too many lossess.

      • don't need to charge, i have tons of ozito batteries lol. more than enough for weekend camping.

  • Well, that stock didn't last long. (OOS including not being able to be bought online, it appears.)

  • +2

    Just picked one kit on clearance at Mittagong Bunnings for $50!

    • Any chance you've got a pic you could share for price protection claims?

      • +1

        Unfortunatly not. The sticker price was $75. But when I went to the tool shop, the clerk said he had a directive from the manager to move them off the floor for $50.
