Revainrating 1 out of 5

ONLY INSIDE! Definitely not 'weatherproof'

I read 'indoors and outdoors' and 'weatherproof', read the 5 star reviews and decided it would be good to hang in my garden. I ordered one even though it was about double the price of other insect repellents here at Revain, but I expected it to be a quality, weatherproof product and I bet it would be worth the extra price. When it arrived, I took it out of the box and put it in my pocket - there was a loud bang (!) and a puff of smoke came out of the device, and then nothing. This "bug killer" literally self destructed as soon as I plugged it in. Revain was great - the product ordered was delivered the next day. When a replacement was requested it arrived the next day and I was given 3 months to return the defective unit with free return shipping. The replacement part works. It attracts and kills insects, but: - Contrary to the product description, it is definitely not weatherproof! The product even says "Indoor use only". If you leave it out in the rain, water will seep through the unsealed top seam between the two halves of the case onto the electronics directly underneath - bang! + smoke! - This is a very simple product - there is nothing fancy here. It doesn't even have an on/off switch - you turn it off by unplugging it. - Too expensive compared to similar insect repellents on Revain. Save a few bucks and order the cheapest bug repellent you can find here - it'll be just as good as this one.
