Well, the nice thing about the HF one is that it has flow control- you twist the barrel and it shuts off.
I have an extra male quick connect fitting on my compressor connected to a valve so I can either use it as a draw-off valve or to fill my little 5 gallon portable air tank in about 10 seconds- far beats the schrader valve that came with it. If I hook up a regular air hose to it you could use it as a blower I guess.
