NOT ONLY USEFUL, BUT GREAT BATTERY LIFE AS WELL!
I'll admit; after reading the reviews regarding this item, I was a bit skeptical as to how effective it would be compared to its counterparts, esp the fully wired model. It didn't make complete sense to me that the wired model, at $28.99, would cost more than the rechargeable wireless model at $19.99. Still, I decided to give it a try and see for myself whether or not this product could hold up to the task of getting rid of potentially hundreds of mosquitoes every night; I live next to an extremely humid section of dense East Coast Appalachia woodland, where mosquitoes are a constant threat and nuisance late into the year, long after stores have stopped selling their summer merchandise to get rid of pests and insects. Additionally, I have several semi-outdoor cats & young kittens for whom a mosquito bite could mean contracting heartworms. I had been routinely going through large citronella candles and burners, and needed another solution. So, I decided to give this big zapper a try. After using this bug zapper every day for over a week, here is what I've observed: 1. BATTERY LIFE: While charging can be a bit of a pain (around 1-2 hours for a full charge), once it's charged this bug zapper lasts a SURPRISINGLY LONG TIME, around 6-7 hours at full strength. I've been charging it for a while during the day and leaving it outside at night starting at around 8PM, and it'll still be going even 7 hours later. Alternately you can operate this bug zapper using the included USB C-C & C-A cable for extended use. 2. NOISE LEVEL/EFFECTIVENESS: While operating at 5200V, the zapper itself is silent--until it zaps a bug. The *pop!* that accompanies the demise of an insect is incredibly loud, so much so that it startled me the first time! 😂 But it's an incredibly satisfying sound, knowing that the product is doing its job. We had this small little bug zapper from TEMU that was surprisingly efficient for it s size, and finding one that was comparable has been difficult. This one is probably the closest we have come to finding a zapper as effective at pest control as that one is. COST VS. VALUE: At $19.99, this bug zapper is a great value for the cost, esp considering that it can be operated both in wired and wireless modes. In fact, I would argue that it's an even better value for the cost than the wired model is at $28.99! The product also comes with a warranty, so even if the product becomes damaged, it will be repaired or replaced. Additionally, the LED light tubes are easy to replace when one burns out; simply pull back on the tube and pop it out of its cradle and replace it with a new one that the manufacturer also offers at a low cost on Amazon. Together this means that for just under $20 you have the potential to own a bug zapper that will be guaranteed reparable and functional for an extended period of time. As great as this product is at killing all kinds of bugs, there is one minor issue: this bug zapper is NOT WATERPROOF. YOU CANNOT OPERATE THIS BUG ZAPPER OUTDOORS WHILE IT IS RAINING OR EVEN A LIGHT DRIZZLE. Please bear this in mind when operating in an outdoor space. TLDR: This bug zapper is absolutely worth the cost, even just to try it out and see if it'll meet your needs 😇 you've got nothing to lose but mosquitoes and biting insects, so why not give it a shot?

Kills fruit gnats, battery powered, great for camping
I love this thing so much I bought two. It works great on those little fruit gnats you get in the fall. Most bug zappers have too big of a gap, but not this one. You can charge it and run it all night, or do like I do and just leave it plugged in. Great item for camping! I also love that it has LEDs which should last longer than a UV bulb.

Loud and satisfying
This thing actually works pretty good. Zaps all the knats and mosquitoes. Like the charge system so carry it anywhere. Only thing is that it really loud and satisfying at the same time but scares the hell out of my dog.

Works on wide variety of insects, attractive effectiveness of lights questionable
I bought this primarily to address indoor drain flies which are tiny little things the size of a gnat. Upon receiving it, i noted that the wires that actually carry voltage seemed a bit far apart and worried that it would not work on tiny insects. I was surprised to find out that it worked well on those tiny bugs and even killed a large hornet with it. I have not seen the lights successfully do much to attract insects however, it seems to catch and zap things only when i place it right on top of something else that attracts insects, like a trash can or old fruit. Note that the battery seems to last a long time, it ran overnight (10 hours) without issue.

Not super efficient at house flies but if you control the competing light sources it works!
Had some rotten onions in a cabinet we didn’t know about and got a fly infestation. At first I hated this zapper but over time it is very effective. Competing light sources are the problem during the day but at dusk and dawn.. pop! Also the battery power is nice. If I noticed a few in a specific room I just unplug and set it in there and turn off all the lights… pop! Also if I see a fly on the wall I slowly hold this up to the fly and the light mesmerizes them and pop!

Money we spent!
Finally a bug zapper that does what it's made to do!

Buzbug NOT Effective for Mosquitoes - Buzbug is good at zapping nat-like creatures.
In the two weeks I have been using the Buzbug it has only zapped 2 mosquitoes! Not effective for mosquitoes. The mosquitoes fly right by the Buzbug. I have placed the Buzbug in various places in my home - works the same everywhere. However, the Buzbug does zap the tiny nat-like flying creatures. That is why I gave the Buzbug a 3-star. Note: You will need a sizable tray or placemat to put under the Buzbug, because all zapped creatures do not fall down into the built in Buzbug tray. Many of the zapped flying creatures fall within about 5 inches or so outside the Buzbug.... The remains of the zapped that do not fall straight down into the built in tray can be found on either side of the Buzbug. So far I have found that an inexpensive plastic placemat is a good "tray" because I can remove the zapped creatures and then quickly wash the placemat with soap & water, and put the Buzbug back on the placemat. Note: be sure to place the Buzbug on the placemat in such a way that most of the placemat is in front of & behind the lites and caged area, so that the zapped will land on the placemat (if they do not fall into the built in tray). Now, if only I knew how to interest the mosquitoes in getting close enough to the Buzbug to be zapped.... Then, I could give a 5 star review.

Strap screws
Work great but the screws that hold the strap keeps falling off. Tighten the screws.

Llevo unos días usando la lámpara Buzbug y no puedo estar más contento. Desde el primer día noté una gran diferencia: los mosquitos han desaparecido casi por completo de la terraza y del dormitorio. Es silenciosa, consume muy poca energía y la luz LED es suave, ideal para usar de noche sin molestar. Además, su diseño compacto la hace muy fácil de colocar en cualquier rincón. La limpieza también es sencilla, con una bandeja que se extrae sin complicaciones. 100% recomendada si quieres disfrutar de las noches sin picaduras.

Dieser tiefpinke Insektenvernichter von Buzbug verändert gerade unsere Abende im Freien ganz entscheidend zum Positiven. Statt wildem Gefuchtel und genervtem Wedeln herrscht nun eine viel entspanntere Atmosphäre, wenn wir die warmen Stunden auf der Terrasse genießen. Die kabellose Freiheit ist ein Segen, da eine Steckdose genau dort, wo wir sie bräuchten, oft Mangelware ist. Der 5200mAh Akku stellt sich als echter Dauerläufer heraus; die versprochenen sieben bis acht Stunden Betriebsdauer reichen locker für einen ausgedehnten Grillabend oder einfach nur einen langen, gemütlichen Ausklang des Tages unter freiem Himmel. Ich lade das Gerät meist tagsüber unkompliziert über das mitgelieferte USB-C Kabel auf, wobei man daran denken muss, einen eigenen 5V 2A USB-Adapter zu verwenden, da dieser nicht im Paket enthalten ist. Die Handhabung ist denkbar einfach: aufstellen oder dank der Schlaufe aufhängen, einschalten, fertig. Neulich beim spontanen Zelten der Kinder im Garten bewies der Buzbug seinen Wert ungemein; wir platzierten ihn etwas abseits vom Zelt und die Nachtruhe blieb tatsächlich vom üblichen Mückenkonzert verschont, was für erstaunlich gute Laune am nächsten Morgen sorgte. Die spezielle Kombination aus zwei LED-Wellenlängen, 365nm und 395nm, scheint die fliegenden Plagegeister wirklich effektiver anzulocken als frühere Geräte, die wir ausprobiert hatten. Man vernimmt immer wieder ein dezentes, fast befriedigendes Knistern, das signalisiert, dass wieder ein Störenfried weniger um uns herumschwirrt. Besonders in der Dämmerung und bei Dunkelheit entfaltet die Lampe ihre volle Anziehungskraft, die Steigerung um 30% laut Hersteller fühlt sich in der Praxis absolut glaubhaft an. Kürzlich hatten wir Freunde zu Besuch für ein spätes Abendessen draußen – normalerweise ein Garant für Mückenattacken nach Sonnenuntergang. Diesmal saßen wir jedoch völlig entspannt bis weit nach Mitternacht zusammen, während der pinke Helfer leise seinen Dienst verrichtete und die Luft rein hielt, das war eine ganz neue Qualität des Beisammenseins. Ein wesentlicher Punkt ist für mich die Sicherheit: Das isolierte ABS-Kunststoffgehäuse fühlt sich robust an und birgt keine Gefahr von Stromleckagen, was bei Metallgehäusen ja durchaus ein Thema sein kann. Das Schutzgitter ist zudem so engmaschig konstruiert, dass weder kleine, neugierige Finger noch die Schnauzen von Haustieren an das stromführende Netz im Inneren gelangen können – das gibt ein gutes und beruhigendes Gefühl, gerade wenn Leben auf der Terrasse ist. Selbst das oft lästige Säubern gestaltet sich erfreulich unkompliziert. Die kleine Schublade am Boden fängt die Insektenreste auf und lässt sich zum Entleeren einfach herausziehen. Mit dem beiliegenden Pinselchen sind die Gitterstäbe schnell gereinigt – Gerät natürlich vorher ausschalten. Das schätze ich wirklich sehr, denn wer hat nach einem schönen Abend schon Lust auf aufwendige Putzaktionen? Dieser minimale Aufwand ist ein echter Komfortgewinn. Besonders hervorzuheben ist auch die beeindruckende Langlebigkeit der LED-Einheit, die mit bis zu 30.000 Stunden oder einer 10-Jahres-Garantie bei saisonaler Nutzung beworben wird; das verspricht eine lange Nutzungsdauer und reduziert Elektroschrott. Man muss lediglich darauf achten, das Gerät nicht im Regen stehen zu lassen, da es nicht wasserdicht ist. Der Buzbug Insektenvernichter punktet klar durch seine hohe Mobilität dank des starken Akkus, die spürbar effektive Anziehungskraft des Dual-LED-Systems und die durchdachten Sicherheitsaspekte.

Joli look un peu vintage, mais grande puissance, et autonome grâce à sa batterie intégrée. Les étincelles claquent à chaque moustique qui s'approche, et la lumière est puissante pour les attirer. J'en possède maintenant 3 que j'installe dans la maison la nuit pour être tranquille. On peut l'utiliser en filaire en branchant le câble USB-C si la batterie est déchargée. La batterie tient largement plus qu'une nuit entière, mais pas deux nuits entières.

Una lampada zapper solida e ben pensata, che non fa sconti a nessun insetto. Se cambierò idea col tempo, aggiornerò volentieri questa recensione. CONFEZIONE E ACCESSORI Arriva in una scatola di cartone ben fatta, tutto ordinato. Dentro ci sono le istruzioni, uno scopettino per la pulizia e un cavo USB-C lungo quanto basta. Il targhettino che indica la vittoria del premio di design. Tutto dà una buona impressione. USO E FUNZIONALITÀ Semplice da usare. Il tasto di accensione è intuitivo, e la modalità con timer da 7 ore è una bella trovata, specie in campeggio o sul terrazzo la sera. Accendi e dimentichi. EFFICACIA Funziona. La luce attira, la griglia fulmina. Il problema è che la selezione è… democratica: zanzare sì, ma anche falene, moscerini, tutto quel che svolazza attratto dal LED. Diciamo che la difesa aerea non fa prigionieri: bersaglio inquadrato, bersaglio abbattuto. PULIZIA E MANUTENZIONE Facile. Il cassetto si estrae senza sforzi e si svuota in un attimo. Lo scopettino è utile per ripulire la griglia e funziona bene anche con i resti più… insistenti.

J’ai été vraiment agréablement surpris par la qualité de cet objet. Jamais je n’aurais pensé que ce système sur batterie serait aussi efficace. C’est donc hyper pratique et facile à transporter avec la sangle. L’autonomie est vraiment très bonne, ça peut rester allumé toute la soirée sans problème. Il n’a pas quitté ma terrasse.
