Abstract: An air blower that is operable to produce an airflow wherein the air blower has a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation. In the first mode of operation the air blower produces an airflow having a temperature that is approximately equal to that of its surroundings. In the second mode of operation, the air blower produces an airflow that has a temperature that is greater than that of its surroundings. The air blower consists of a motor providing mechanical energy to an electrical alternator. An ignition module is present being operable to start the motor. A first heating element and second heating element are present within the airflow path of the air blower. A bypass module is operable to select the first mode or second mode of operation. An insulated discharge tube is operable to direct the airflow produced by the blower motor.
