DrillPro G1 is a 90,000 RPM turbo blower that can also vacuum—and proved more practical than the numbers on paper in an independent test
The DrillPro G1 is a compact cordless turbo blower with a 40 mm brushless motor, a maximum speed of 90,000 RPM, USB-C charging, and a large selection of nozzles. Interestingly, it is not just a blower. By switching the attachments, it can also work as a small handheld vacuum.
DrillPro G1 is a compact cordless turbo blower with a 40 mm brushless motor, a maximum speed of 90,000 RPM, USB-C charging, and a large selection of nozzles. Interestingly, it is not just a blower. By switching the attachments, it can also work as a small handheld vacuum.
There is an independent practical test of this model, making it possible to separate the marketing from what the device can actually do.
90,000 RPM is not unrealistic for a small turbo motor
DrillPro uses a 40 mm brushless motor with a maximum speed of 90,000 RPM, according to the documentation.
Such high speeds are genuinely possible with small turbine motors. However, that does not automatically mean the power of a conventional compressor.
The G1 produces a high-speed stream of air, not a high-pressure tank of compressed air.
That is an important difference when cleaning electronics and a workshop.
An independent test confirmed a powerful airflow
A practical test showed that the G1 easily handled:
- blowing out a keyboard,
- cleaning a computer,
- dust in a car,
- gaps around seats,
- a workbench,
- sawdust,
- small wood chips,
- fine sand,
- drying smaller surfaces.
For these tasks, it is much more convenient than taking out a large compressor and hose.
It can vacuum, too
A small container with a filter can be attached to the suction side.
The tester successfully vacuumed the following with it:
- crumbs,
- rice,
- flour,
- hair,
- fine dust,
- a small amount of sand.
However, the vacuum function has a clear limitation: the container is small.
The G1 cannot replace a conventional handheld vacuum, but it is practical for quickly cleaning a keyboard or car.
The version tested in practice had 4 levels + Turbo
There is an important difference between versions here.
Some sales materials refer to 9 speeds, but the independently tested unit had 4 adjustable levels and a separate Turbo mode.
The product has apparently appeared in several revisions.
So before ordering, it is better to check the photos and manual for the specific current version rather than automatically assuming that every G1 has nine levels.
The 10,000 mAh figure needs to be interpreted correctly
According to the test, the handle contains 4 × 18650 cells, each rated at 2,500 mAh.
That is why the manufacturer lists “10,000 mAh.”
However, when cells are connected in series, their capacities cannot simply be compared with a 10,000 mAh power bank using a single cell. The total energy of the battery pack matters more.
The tester rated the battery life as good for regular cleaning.
USB-C charging
The G1 charges via USB-C.
For the tested version, the charging time is listed as approximately 2.5 hours when using a suitable power source.
This is practical because there is no need to carry a separate proprietary adapter.
Dimensions and weight
The independently tested unit measured approximately:
- 17 × 7 × 5 cm,
- around 415 g in weight.
That is more than miniature “air duster” devices, but still considerably less than a cordless workshop blower.
The stated air pressure was not confirmed
Some materials state approximately 550 g of wind pressure.
However, a user measurement on one unit recorded only about 250 g.
The independent tester did not measure this value, so it cannot be claimed that all units show the same difference.
Still, it is a good reason not to choose a product based only on a marketing figure.
In practice, what matters more is that the blower can handle dust and light debris.
Air speed of around 40 m/s
The documentation for the tested revision lists approximately 40 m/s.
That corresponds to about 144 km/h directly at the nozzle.
The airflow, of course, weakens quickly over a greater distance.
Digital display
There is a display on top of the handle showing the battery status and selected power level.
During use, this is more practical than four simple LEDs.
Accessories are a strength
The package usually includes several nozzles for blowing and suction.
The independent test used:
- a narrow nozzle,
- wider attachments,
- a suction container,
- a crevice attachment,
- a brush,
- an inflation adapter.
It is precisely the range of accessories that makes the G1 more versatile.

Who is the G1 suitable for?
It makes the most sense for:
- cleaning PCs and keyboards,
- car detailing,
- workshop use,
- cleaning small machines,
- inflating smaller items,
- quickly vacuuming crumbs and dust.
Is the DrillPro G1 worth it?
Yes, if users treat it as a powerful electric air duster, not as a replacement for a compressor.
The independent test showed that its practical strengths are speed, compactness, and the range of attachments. The vacuum function is a bonus.
The main thing to watch out for is the different product revisions, since the number of modes and some details may vary between units.
