I use the RYOBI ONE+ 18V Cordless Compact Workshop Blower for fires and it's not a one trick pony like this tool. Been using one for years with grills and firepits.

More like a blow dryer without the heating element.

Its more of a hassle and waste of space to carry around/store.

I have one. it's a quality tool for starting fires. I had to take mine apart and repair it once, but it's not complicated.

I don't get it. Is this anything other than a battery powered fan?

It's a battery powered fan specifically designed to replace bellows. We have one for the fireplace and I'm buying another for the firepit now.

Personally, I think a fireplace bellows would look cooler sitting by a fireplace, but it does seem like this is a little smaller and probably more effective.
