I am. Worried about static electricity. Don't suggest compressed air

Said brush works solely by generating static electricity to grab the dust into itself so if you are worried about static electricity, don't use it.

ohhhhh hellllllllll no kid! do not use that it will more than likely cause some static and harm ur pc parts, might as well brush the inside of your pc off with carpet. if you go on amazon they sell antistatic brushes and little football looking things that you squeeze to blow air out and it is reusable i havent had much experience with the football duster but i hear it works very well and is practical for clearing out the tight spots. they also have different sizes which all vary in price too [strike]or you can just buy a can of canned air[/strike] either one of those will work just dont use a feather duster or any like that one in the pic. Good luck (sorry for being so blunt).

Hehe its not a brush its feather duster, don't use it, it is use of the windows and top of the appliances, you can use paint brush rather and pencil eraser, and thinner. But safety precautions first

Dude the easiest thing is compressed air. That brush and the inside of your pc probably is not a good idea.

 

[combinebasic]

Yes the very easy way is blower or compress air but Himanshu said do not suggest compress air

 

[ohiou_grad_2006]

So let the inside of the pc get dusty and cook a part? No thanks. Cans of compressed air are the best option for cleaning out a pc.

Well, if you want to go to next best (non-compressed air) alternative... (I wont recommend it but it would work) some vacuum cleaners allow you to use it as a blower instead. said blown air isn't static and will be strong enough to put most compressed air cans to shame.
Of course, that all hinges on the fact if person owns a vacuum cleaner with that feature.

If not, buying new vacuum cleaner for that feature would be silly, you would get a truckload of compressed air cans at same price.
