FUBUKI Blower Returns to Makuake September 2 After 24,694% Campaign
FUBUKI earned Makuake's encore re-sale frame, reserved for projects with unusually large response, by rejecting the wind-speed numbers race in favor of a wide-nozzle design that drew an average of about 21,500 yen per supporter.

Vectorane's cordless blower FUBUKI closed its Makuake campaign on August 30 with 24,694,230 yen raised from 1,147 supporters, 24,694% of the 100,000 yen goal. The 23-day run drew requests from buyers who missed it, so the company opens an encore project September 2 at 12:00, running to September 29 at 22:00. The blower pairs a 60mm nozzle with a 399g body.
FUBUKI's pitch was a deliberate counter to the handheld blower market's wind-speed competition. Where typical models narrow the outlet to push up the km/h figure, Vectorane kept a 60mm nozzle and a 64mm brushless motor rated at 1200W, claiming about 260 km/h and 2,000g of thrust. The body weighs 399g without the battery. It runs on Makita 18V batteries or a separate USB-C rechargeable 4Ah pack.
The campaign passed 10 million yen in its first week and 20 million by day 19, ending at 24,694,230 yen. The encore project opens September 2 at 12:00 and closes September 29 at 22:00.
