I have heard these work. What are your thoughts? Academy just did a price reduction. So far this is the cheapest I've found them.

Hell yah they work. Use one when I hunt. You saw it on my garage the other night.

I have 3. They were the top outdoor invention a year or two ago

Ya they're awesome. I would think the holder that comes with wouod be useful I lose the little blue pads all the time.

When they first came out I was shooting outdoor archery heavily, I would purposely get in a group who had one LOL! they work! I've had mine for 8 years, they even keep them sweat bees away in the dove field.

I'd be a little worried they'd put off a scent that would permeate my tackle and scare the fish away though? I know I have to be real careful about DEET bug repellant because it's an excellent fish repellent.

I have been using them for years for bow hunting. They are great.. I have one strapped to my Black Pak when it's a hot windless day and they bugs are in swarms. It works great for about a 10' circle.

They're awesome. With west Nile being a real threat they add a level of protection.

Hey YFA thanks for the heads up on the price - just picked mine up! Also there's a $5 rebate:

Thanks for the headed up. I hope i kept my receipt.

They work great. If you ever doubt it, turn it off and see how long before you get swarmed.

How long do the batteries last? Do they use a scent or some type of electronic deterent?
I need something because mosquitoes just LOVE me!

X100.....use one on my kayak when I night fish and they work!

No batteries. Butane cylinder and a quartz ignitor inside.

These things work.
