Zapout Camping Lantern: Keep Bugs Away with This Bulb Zapper Tent Light

ML: As long as its fully charged you can enjoy watching mosquitos perish. I use this in my semi truck, I like to sleep with my windows slightly opened so I can get fresh air while I sleep. Doing so lets little bugs in, especially flies and mosquitos. The purple light is just a led, but it attracts the bugs, I say keep it well charged because I saw a medium size fly go right into it and it immediately got stuck to the electrified wired mesh, however it was not dead, just incredibly stunned. In the morning the fly was gone and was doing laps in my sleeper, so I turned the bug zapper back on and stuck it in the flies face and it flew into the mesh, again it was getting zapped but not enough to kill it. So keep this puppy fully charged for maximum efficiency, it also comes with a little brush to get rid of the crispy critters. It is very quite, no loud snaps. The "soft" white light feature does a good job in a small area.

Dude-in-the-Cold: Its a 3 star because it does kill SOME mosquitoes, but even in a small dark RV it only killed 5 of about 20 mosquitoes in an 8 hour night. I was hoping for better than that.

A few pros-
---battery life is good, it easily lasts all night.
---the 'lamp' funtion works well, it's almost too bright on it's lowest setting
---It seems well constructed, but I haven't tested it's claimed waterproofness.

Con-
---It isn't the mosquito destorying machine I need. It 'claims' it covers 200 sq ft. My camper isn't nearly that big. If it only kills 1/4 the bugs during an 8 hour night, that leaves me with waaaay too many mosquitoes to swat at all night long.

RetroRetired: This item came in handy when staying in the Amazon jungle where the lodging electricity was shut off at 11pm and mosquitoes and flying insects were abundant. This gadget provided lighting for our rustic quarters and zapped a fair amount of mosquitoes. This light/bug zapper is rechargeable and with that said needs to be stored and transported on your carry-on, due the built-in lithium battery. Just remember, camp style lamps attract insects, so it's nice to have the bothersome bug abatement feature.

Cliente de Amazon: Excelente lámpara. Mata muy bien los moscos e insectos pequeños. Algunos insectos que lograron entrar por la rendija no fueron electrocutados y algunos moscos muy pequeños pasaron sin verse afectados, pero en general es un excelente producto: buen diseño, buenos materiales, buen funcionamiento.

Andrés Alonso: No sirve, no atrae nada, no mata nada, la usé durante 3 semanas en lugares incluso llenos de mosquitos y ni a un solo mosquito atrajo o mato.

FlyByNightFlyByNight: Not sure if you can see from the picture, but I finally got that pesky fly that wouldn't go away. After I got the zapper, I left the UV LED light on and left the room. A few mins later I hear "POP...POP...POP POP...". Not only was the fly dead, he was stuck inside the UV LED light, and he kept getting zapped over and over LOL. Aside from that, the lantern LED is very bright , and has 4 modes: low, medium, high, and a blinking light. It has a sturdy hook so you can hang it where ever you need to. And best of all it has a rechargeable battery, which saves you $. Other zapper brands I've also had success with and recommend: HousingFirst, ERAVSOW, and PIC Corporation.

Al Heyn: This is a great item for camping. I used to camp a lot and wished that it had been available then. I bought it to try for a small area of my house. I will say that the battery is good but it does require recharging every day. It takes awhile to do, so make sure you start it early in the day. I may be missing something about cleaning it. Shake it and blow on it gets most of the night critters off. If you are a light sleeper, the big zap noise when a large critter bights the dust might disturb you but just realize that it did not land on you, I would recommend this. If you have a power outlet available, just use the zapper and don't worry about recharging. BTW. very light and great little hanging gizmo.
