Review on 🦟 Luckybay Electric Mosquito Fly Swatter: Effective Rechargeable Bug Zapper Lamp Racket for Indoor & Outdoor Use by Kathy Jones

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Gets a little warm in automatic mode

This review is directed to Luckybay Electric Mosquitos. The kit comes with the fly swatter itself, a charging station and a micro USB charging cable. The battery is about 2/3 full when you receive it. The charging station is feather light and that is a real problem for me. It should be heavier so that this fly swatter cannot be easily knocked over. When I first got it, I put it on the base, put it on auto and let it sit for an hour. During this time the battery is almost empty. Then I connected the device and left it in automatic mode. It filled up to 2 out of 4 bars, but didn't reach a higher charge than the one used after about 2 hours of waiting. I wanted to take it off the stand and it was damn hot. Not to burn you, but hot enough to get your attention quickly. I also do not recommend charging this device with a dead battery while in use. This has the recommended 1A charge. After that I charged it and it had no problems with a full charge. So if you need to charge it, make sure the device is turned off completely. After it was 100% I turned it on and left it in the stand to try and kill some of the bugs in the room. It made me very tired again. It only sat there for about an hour and got to 114F, which was a bit concerning, but not too bad. I got back in less than an hour and it was at 128F when I turned it off and removed it from the stand. In my opinion it is too hot. As far as I can tell, this device is not UL listed and there is no marking on its stand. The fly swatter itself is CE RoHS marked, which means it meets European health, safety and environmental standards. I'd be wary of leaving this in zapper mode unless you're in the room with it. It could be good, but it got too hot for my liking. This is great for on-demand bug control around your home, so I'll keep using it for that. However, I must keep looking for something that can quietly kill her overnight.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
