ZAP IT! Rechargeable Electric Fly Swatter Racket - 4,000-Volt Mosquito Zapper with USB Charging Cable and Super-Bright LED Light -Small- Safe 3-Layer Mesh, Yellow, Bug Zapper for Indoors and Outdoors

So far so good for this mini version. These things are very light and hopefully their plastic doesn’t break. I have dropped it once already, but it shows no signs of damage. This product should be used to wave around in the air to touch the pests. It is not intended to “hit” or “smack” anything because it will break. I do however notice that I catch more pests the faster I wave it in the air (be aware of your environment; try not to break anything or hurt anyone). The flys that I manage to hit with this make a loud snapping sound. Sometimes they survive the hit and fly away, but most times they fall to the ground subdued, allowing you to step on them. Other times they get stuck in it and make a little lightning bolt arc shine from their bodies. This usually results in a burned smell if you continue to press the energizing button (which I will explain in a moment). These USB rechargeable zap rackets come with only one cord, but I already have another cord for a cell phone, so, whatever. The charge cord fits behind the yellow door at the base of the handle. I like that this product has switches on it. One on the side that cuts power to the metal completely, and one in the middle of the handle to control a light. Why it needs a light is beyond me, but it’s there if you need it. The main button that energizes the metal grid is the yellow button on the side. There are two LED lights on the handle. A red LED light that shines to show you that the metal grid is being energized every time the yellow button is pressed, and a green one lower on the handle that only shines to indicate when it is finished recharging. Oh, and instructions say it should be charged before use. It also says it can be recharged a thousand times (or something along those lines) because of the powerful lithium battery, but I have yet to charge it again (since the first charge after I received it). I have already killed around 40 flies and a few mosquitoes with one of them on a single charge and it shows no signs of weakening. Both rackets have fully charged within two hours. I have not shocked myself yet, and I have noticed that this is due to the safe design. I am fairly certain that shocking yourself is a possibility if you are determined to do it, but I highly recommend that you not. I am thoroughly satisfied with this product so far but I will return to update this review if I find any problems or flaws to adjust the star rating.

This zapper works exactly as described by seller. The first time I caught a fly with it the zapping noise surprised me.

This Mini Bug Zapper is one of my favorite weapon to use on flies getting inside the house. I use to use a fly swatter and literally missed every time. It got super frustrating until... I bought this product. It takes me 1-3 swings until I hear a ZAP and lo and behold, the fly on the floor. It charges really fast too and last about 2-3 months before I had to recharge it again (depending on how many flies you encounter). The reason I gave the Mini Bug Zapper 4 stars is because when I first used it, one zap would kill the fly. After a while, I would have to zap a fly twice (maybe more than twice sometimes to really make sure it's down). Overall, a great product - super fun to use!

It work really good

Update: Works on medium to large mosquitos, still have to constantly depress the button in order to be prepared to zap them. I also looked at my order history and have to replace every 3yrs. Not a horrible ROI, but having to constantly press a button is so annoying & would not work for older people or those with hand strength issues or arthritis. …….. In AZ the mosquitos are super tiny, so this doesn't work on them. Works great for flies though! You just have to remember to charge it AND continue pressing the button while you swat the fly. If the fly is especially evasive & you have an open floor plan, you may find yourself holding the button for quite some time :P I do wish I could charge, release the button, and swat so I don't have to keep holding the button for so long. Works for what I need & I like that it is rechargeable.

Do Not Buy!!!! I thought this being rechargable would be great, I wouldn't have to replace batteries over and over. I charged it right out the box till the light turned green and tried it out. At first it seemed to work but lasted 5 minutes and a charge supposedly gets 10,000 zaps, I might of zapped 15 times. I plugged in and charged again and same result. Then the zapper stopped working completely. I stuck a metal object in the wire while activated to check for life (please don't do this at home) and yup dead as a door nail. The company has a lifetime warranty so i figured maybe mine was just defective and I would give them another try. After emailing the company over and over I finally received a response and that they would send another unit. You would think a company that offers a guarantee like this the product would work great cause otherwise you would be losing money replacing units all the time. I finally received the 2nd one in the mail and threw the first one away like the company told me to do. I charged the 2nd unit and once the light was green tried it out. As I was trying to zap bugs I noticed the red light wasn't staying Red and so the zapper wasn't staying engaged so no zapping power and the flies just flew away laughing at my defeat. 2 defective units????? No way this is a piece of junk and I don't know how the company can offer such a warranty considering. I give up on this thing and I am returning for a refund...definitely not worth the pain and aggravation to deal with this piece of crap. On a side note I also bought Elucto brand battery operated zapper around the same time as my 1st one wouldn't work and that is going strong. This one is press and go and no protective crap to get in the way. I'm sticking with Elucto zapper. I tried to give this zapper a chance but it is just a flop and what's the point of a lifetime warranty if you have to constantly replace the unit cause it doesn't work. Bad design poor execution and terrible product!!!!!!

I've had one of these since 2017, and it's still going strong. The battery held a charge over the winter.

Great product

Superb...handy too.in time delivery
