I know this topic is really old but all CO2 cartridges are not the same! The ones used for Pellet and BB-Guns have oil in them to help lubricate the gun mechanisms.

You don't want to use those types of CO2 cartridges for blowing out keyboards and internal computer components………

What about a product that does not use compress gases and chemicals?

1,1-difluoroethane causes sudden cooling. The haze you see is water ice crystallizing out of the moisture in the air. Some items don’t like sudden cooling, others don’t like moisture. There are rumors that it causes long term harm to people. I don’t think there are results from major health studies.

At least CO2 is not really harmful to people, esp. from the amount in that small cartridge.

CO2 isn’t 100% environmentally safe, it’s a greenhouse gas which contributes to global warming, but then so does breathing.

Another plus is you should be able to use this while it is inverted.

And compressed air is only a very good friend to computer owners if the can doesn’t ice everything up inside the machine

I’ve had that happen once with a very old can of compressed air. Fortunately, the frost didn’t cause any damage.

iirc (I haven’t used a pellet gun since 1988, which could technically be considered a millennium ago) they are the same type.

Welllllll…of course the packaging says to only use their brand of CO2 cartridges, but I was thinking along the same lines. Aren’t these the same type a pellet gun might use?

Lotsa reasons to go with this over a can of compressed air!

Also, those cans are rather difficult to come by in this town, not to mention expensive (three times as much as at CostCo), but afaik the cylinders of CO2 can be bought at a typical sporting goods store.
