What do you’ll use to clean inside of equipment?
- Thread starter prem
- Start date
A vaccum cleaner with a mini brush head.
A blower (in a can) for the tricky parts - I know a lot of people will not be a fan of this but - a straw and blowing air works wonders too (no problem with moisture ever)
A natural hair brush for clearing off the really stuck gunk & then a fine sponge brush & cleaning alcohol as a last ditch.
I have used this combination on multiple devices, primarily, PCs & Some old amplifiers

Most mini vaccums will be fine; I have used those, please stay away from USB powered ones - the ones that come for car cleaning are more than enough.
Also if you have a regular vaccum cleaner - instead of the brush head, use a muslin cloth to cover the nozzle and then just run it gently over everything, a bit cumbersome, but works fantastic.

Would something like above be ok?
Either should be fine in my opinion. Battery operated one could be convenient but may or maynot have comparable suction power.
If you believe the marketing - you can check out DYson - not to start a VC war - but I have a set and it makes the job super easy

I'd stay away from Eureka Forbes. They used to be very good many years ago but not any more according to some friends who had not so pleasant experiences with them.
If I were you, I'd buy this: https://www.amazon.in/Handheld-Powerful-Filtration-Lightweight-Accessories/dp/B09SDDQQKP

I have a rather different opinion.
Vacuum Cleaners are ineffective for this job.
For mildly dirty PCBs n insides I recommend a 1 inch width paint brush... Preferably one with stuff nylon bristles.
A strong blower (like the one used to clean Airconditioner grills) is ideal for really dirty insides.
Contrary to gut feel, the strong blower cleans best & does not damage any wiring (that has been my practical experience)

Yes! Absolutely!
Few Vacuum Cleaner do have the functionality for blower - you may have to put the pipe on the exhaust/outlet of the blower instead of inlet .
I usually remove the filter inside to get some more power for blowing purpose, but , still does not come close to these blower.
like in Eureka F

Anything that’s small and handy that you can recommend?
