Review on ๐ŸฆŸ Rechargeable Bug Zapper Racket - ZAP IT! 2 Pack, Powerful 4,000 Volt, USB Charging Cable by Heather Phillips

Be careful, don't fall for it! This is MINI version

Nowhere says they are MINI versions. Consequently, the title and content of the listing are inaccurate and misleading. The photos in the listing (pic 1 below) of the man holding the racquet are incorrect as he is holding the full sized racquet. To be clear, the head is the size of a grapefruit. They are a fraction of the size of many other ZapIt rackets I've purchased over the years. It's more of a scale model of it. It's too small to be effective unless the fly hovers right next to your body and stands still like a hummingbird. Shown (Image 2 below) with a typical scale home cordless phone. Not one of those long cordless phones - just a regular size. In fact, there are now large cell phones that completely cover the impact zone. I told the seller about it and they didn't seem to care (told me they would forward it to their listings department or something). I'm a fan of full-size bats, but they're not usable unless you buy them as pop art. To make matters worse, you only get a very thin USB cable for 2 racquets - obviously no plug, just a USB cable that could easily be thrown away with the box if you're not careful. It looks like a casual tie or black cord. A frustrating experience on all levels. The seller should have fixed the problem immediately by including "MINI" in the title and description. One almost wonders if this is a deliberate omission. Finally, there is only one picture of the box in the listing and if you can zoom in on that picture 10x or 20x you can see the word 'mini' on the retail box. Although I knew these fly swatters well, I never thought I would get mini copies of the real ones.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No power
