Anyone use this Powered Dust Mask

[Doug Barker]

I know there are many other options, but I wondered if anyone has used this powerd dust mask offered by GarrettWade?

No, but I would also like to know if any one has tried it.

A battery powered fan in that size range isn't likely to develop the Delta-P needed to make any difference.

Besides the exercise of sucking air through a carbon filter is good for your lungs - - isn't it?? I like to think it is.
Well, is it?

I'm not sure I understand the purpose of the fan.

I have a full-face shield with a fan to pull fresh air in. But the benefit of the fan is to prevent fogging the shield.

With a half mask, there is no shield to fog. I wonder what the fan is for. I think this dust mask is a solution searching for a prolem.

I've been using a 3-M half mask for a few years now. I never wish it had a fan.

I don't know anything about this either but I do know everytime I buy from GW it comes close to what they advertise.

They usually have good quality stuff like LV, however it does appear it may become pricey to use.

Powered mask would be good for guys with beards.
