The Tempest BB-16 Battery Blower (10,940 CFM) delivers exceptional cordless ventilation performance in a lightweight, compact package designed for fire, rescue, industrial, and confined space operations. Powered by a high-capacity removable Lithium-Ion battery, the BB-16 provides an impressive 10,940 CFM of AMCA-tested airflow with up to 50 minutes of continuous runtime at maximum power. Its self-contained design eliminates the need for external power sources while providing the reliability and portability emergency responders demand.
Built around a high-efficiency 16" brushless DC (BLDC) motor with a variable speed drive, the BB-16 allows users to precisely adjust airflow to match the application. The removable battery quickly slides in and out for rapid replacement, while the integrated onboard charger allows the battery to recharge even while the blower is operating when connected to AC power. Available in either 110V or 220V configurations, the BB-16 offers maximum versatility for departments and industrial facilities.
Designed for demanding field use, the BB-16 weighs only 51 pounds with the battery installed (42 pounds without) and features a compact footprint measuring just 22" L x 21" H x 11" D—approximately half the size of a comparable gas-powered blower. A wide tilt range from +65° to -90° with a locking mechanism allows the blower to be positioned flat over manholes and confined space openings, while powerful low-mounted LED Flow-Path lighting improves visibility beneath smoke for safer operation.
