Leaf blowers are great! Used one to blow out years of accumulated dust, bugs and of course leaves from DJ equipment like amps and mixers that were used indoors and out.
Large speakers (with care) as well. Things like salami slices have to be removed by hand. Amazing what people will do with their food when dancing under the influence near equipment!

I wasn't completely joking about the battery powered leaf blower but I like your idea for smaller precision work.From a distance, and at lower speeds, a leaf blower works fine for blowing out old PCs or blowing the dust out of electric space heaters. I'll do this in the garage or out on the driveway as you'd be amazed at how much dust comes out of some of these appliances.
Just have to be careful not to get too close or too powerful to cause damage. I also use the leaf blower to blow dirt and leaves out of the garage rather than sweeping.
Similar to mine. Not real powerful.

My outdoor leaf blower that I used on the DJ equipment is a large but older plug-in one that comes with a shoulder strap. I use it just the way you describe when outside but much too big for indoors.Really admiring the large tools with rechargeable battery tools like yours. Seem more user friendly. Waiting for my oldies to break down!
