I bought the Giottos rocket blower but this blower is dangerus!

When I press hard on the blower like 5 times the red pipe loosen from the blower with high speed, this made a scatch in my table! I don't want this thing to shoot away into my lens/sensor.


Is it something wrong with my blower or is this a common problem?

Something is wrong with your blower. Exchange it.

It might be called "Rocket"... it just looks like one, it shouldn't ACT like one. :p
