The TYPEC Bug Zapper 2 Pack generally does a solid job at tackling mosquitoes and other flying insects, both inside and outside. According to how the manufacturer describes it, each zapper is equipped with a 4200V electric grid to zap those bugs away. On top of that, it has a 3000LM LED light, so it also serves as a light source, which can be handy if you're camping or barbecuing in the evening.
The structure of the zapper is pretty sturdy. It's made with a durable ABS shell and it has an IPX6 waterproof rating. This suggests that it's quite robust and should hold up against different weather conditions, making it a reliable choice for outdoor use. From what we've found, it can cover an area of about 1500 square feet, so it's suitable for larger spaces.
That said, opinions on its efficiency, especially outdoors, do vary. According to our research, while it generally covers a wide area and catches a variety of bugs, some folks feel that the LED light isn’t strong enough to lure mosquitoes effectively in well-lit areas or at dusk. It might perform best in completely dark settings where the light can really stand out.
Setting it up is pretty easy too. It's just plug-and-play and it has a hanging ring, so you can place it on a flat surface or hang it up out of the kids' or pets' reach. For outdoor use, you might need an extension cord—this seems to come up in some feedback.
All things considered, though the TYPEC Bug Zapper 2 Pack is made to be versatile, its effectiveness really depends on your particular setting and how mosquitoes behave in your area. You might have to try different placements or conditions to see what works best for you.
Remember, factors like surrounding light and structures might impact its effectiveness, so a bit of experimenting could get you better results.
