I bought these to increase my inventory of them. They work exactly as advertised. I put them out on the deck and porch. They keep the mosquitos away very well. They are less effective in windy conditions though

Mosquito repellent products ALWAYS come with a healthy dose of skepticism. Repellents always make you taste bad, smell bad or also repel your loved ones too.We camped just off a lake shore, near a marsh, that was also near a rain forest. The mosquitoes were aggressive, came in large numbers and were pretty big in size too. In the 4 minutes it took to exit the kayaks and pull them up on shore, I'd already killed 11 mosquitoes on mmjust my forehead alone. I keep we would be in for a rough time once the wetsuits came off. But my friend had one of these with him and it was his first time using it. I admit, I made a face when he pulled the thing out once we made camp. Mosquitoes were absolutely nuts and were swarming around our heads in literal clouds, getting in our eyes, noses, ears and yes, I know I swallowed several... But we're not going to talk about that. It was bad. Really bad. My friend finally located the bag with the repellant and set it up. We had to check several times to see if the thing was even on since it made zero noise - which was excellent because we were absolutely in love with the songs the mosquitoes were singing in our ears. He turned this thing on and... The mosquitoes cleared the space about as fast as 'that guy' who lets a rotten one out at the checkout line at the grocery store. Cleared a space so well, but there was no odor, no real smoke, just.... Clear, mosquito free air. It was really nice. The others started emerging from their tents and could also enjoy the relatively small, but mosquito free space to cook and sit.This was the first thing I did when I got cell phone service again. I bought two, and then I went camping again. The combined powers of my two and his repellants, really did improve the quality of experience we had on that first trip and the second one. What also surprised me was how little fuel the product used. One little can of propane lasted a week long camping trip. It's so easy to use even their 10 year old set it up on their own while we were all preparing for the next leg of our trip. The product doesn't let off any light, though it does burn propane. I highly recommend this product, but read the directions and understand the ingredients you're working with and how to properly handle it. Just don't be dumb and out it in your eyes... And for the love of... - don't eat it. I hope this helps :)

I have to admit, I've never been a fan of Thermacell products in the past. They always seemed bulky and inconvenient, and I often found myself resorting to other methods to keep those pesky mosquitoes away during my camping trips. However, the Thermacell Backpacker Mosquito Repeller, Gen 2.0, has completely changed my perception.First and foremost, the flexibility this product offers is unparalleled. Instead of relying on proprietary fuel cartridges, it conveniently runs on camping fuel canisters. This means I can use it for an extended period without worrying about constantly purchasing replacement cartridges. This level of adaptability is exactly what I needed, and it has greatly enhanced my outdoor experience.The backpacker mosquito repeller is incredibly efficient at creating a mosquito-free zone. The repellent mats that come with it do an outstanding job of repelling those bothersome insects, allowing me to enjoy the serenity of nature without constant buzzing and biting. The repellent mats are easy to insert and replace, ensuring a hassle-free experience.One aspect I appreciate is the water-resistant bag that accompanies the repeller. It provides protection against unexpected rain showers and accidental splashes, keeping the device safe and operational even in damp conditions. The sturdy construction of the repeller itself gives me confidence in its durability, and I feel assured that it will withstand the rigors of outdoor adventures.In terms of design, the Backpacker Mosquito Repeller is compact and lightweight, making it highly portable. It easily fits into my backpack without taking up much space, allowing me to carry it effortlessly on my camping and hiking trips.

Solo lo he usado una vez. Parece ser que si funciona para el area especificada sin embargo se me estuvo apagando constantemente con el aire que no era muy intenso. Se probó fuera de casa en una reunión. zona de mosquitos. Le daré una segunda oportunidad en área de camping.Consideró que tienes que cuidar la orientación del viento para que no se esté apagando. A ver qué tal.Actualizare mi opinión de acuerdo al resultado.

本日無事に商品が到着しました。青い専用の袋もかっこいいですよ!早速始動テストをしたら無事に着火成功ですよ!イヤ〜久しぶりにいい買い物をした感じで大変満足しています。日本製の蚊取りマットではサイズが小さいので〜4時間は持続しないかとは思いますが〜交換頻度を高くすれば問題無いと思います。後は外でちゃん日本の蚊に効いているかを試したいと思っています。とても良い商品かと思って〜釣りに〜キャンプに〜庭仕事にと使って行きたいと思います。今回購入したお店のkodaトレーディングさん色々ときめ細やかな対応本当にありがとうございました。皆さん〜kodaトレーディングさんからのご購入をお薦め致します〜自分の中では久しぶりのHIT商品になる事間違いなしです‼️
