Car wash vs Vortexhaus
For years I've driven some of my cars through car washes. They blow water off at the exit and you can drive off and end up with water spots or park if you paid for an upgrade and watch them blow out crevices, but still end up with water spots. I saw the VortesxHaus Turbo Jet 3.0 and decided to take a chance because I have a car I will never drive through the car wash. I spent hundreds on microfiber towels but they always leave fibers all over the car. Especially noticeable on the windshield when driving. I always have water spots once I get home because I can't blow out the crevices where water collects. Cleanup is a mess. I have the DeWalt battery version. One battery was more than enough to do the whole car. No water spots when I got home. One thing I've noticed after a few days of driving the car is road dust does not stick to the car near as much as when I hand dried the car with microfiber towels. Perhaps all those stuck fibers were adding to the problem. The TurboJet DB v3.0 makes going to the DIY carwash so much easier. My one suggestion is to add a trigger lock to the unit. As an older guy with some issues it would help since my hand gets tired holding it for long periods of time. I know it won't help today but if I need to have it replaced it would be nice for a newer model to already have this feature. Great product.

Geoff, this is a fantastic real‑world comparison: car wash blowers, towels, fibers everywhere versus a single DeWalt battery and a clean, spot‑free car. Thank you as well for the trigger lock suggestion – we’ve heard this from other older customers and it’s on our design list for future versions. – Arthur Founder, VortexHaus
