The answer is "Yes, they should"

However, although I understood your question, blower has 6 other
meanings before the slang one you meant. Many non-native English users
(including my wife) might not have understood it.

blow·er [bloh-er]
–noun
1.
a person or thing that blows.
2.
a machine for supplying air at a moderate pressure, as to supply forced
drafts or supercharge and scavenge diesel engines.
3.
snowblower.
4.
Mining. a jet of firedamp issuing from a crevice.
5.
Slang. a braggart.
6.
supercharger.
7.
Chiefly British Slang. a telephone.

Yes I have done this with several phones. ASDA PAYG rates are very
good, it's not worth unlocking them.
