Works but cartridge doesn't last very long

Bought this 2 weeks ago and have been pleased so far. Seems to work well. My one complaint is that the supposed 12-hour cartridge didn't seem to last nearly that long (maybe 6 hours of use?). Bought a second unit with a 12-hour cartridge and noted the cartridge was only about 1/2 full of liquid. Marked the level before using and after one hour the level had dropped substantially. Looks to be about 5 hours worth of repellant. Not sure if the cartridge I got just wasn't filled properly - I will keep track of how long it lasts. I'm also putting the cap back on between uses. Got a 40-hour refill so will keep track of that as well. As I said, the unit seems to work but the refills will get expensive if they only last have the time indicated.

All around great

I got this mainly for picnic table use. Where we have property in the woods we have tons of mosquitoes. This e55 worked great to keep these away. While running this and having dinners at the table we did not see a single mosquito. Would definitely purchase other thermacell products

Wow-Really Convenient & Sleek

I got this product to try from the company and so far I love it. Before this I had the one u basically have to spark with a mini fuel container inside it by turning a button. This one is so much more convenient because you just charge it and then press a button and it automatically turns on (like electrically). I also no longer have to mess with those repellent strips and insert them in the device because this one has containers of repellent u just take the lid off and stick right in. Finally, I love the sleek and modern look-it would be great on my picnic table outside etc. I haven't used it yet to see the range due to the temperature where I am but from what I can see it will be working great and I can't wait to use it more this summer!

Eaten alive!

What a huge disappointment, we have the old butane version and it works incredibly well. But, the butane canisters are expensive and we would frequently forget to turn them off after a fun night at the pool with friends. So the new version seemed like a win, no butane and a 5 hour shut off. But no, I sat outside for 5 minutes with this one running on full charge and I can see the mosquitos landing on me. Please take this back and refund me with the old version.

I can finally enjoy life without bugspray

I will say i have been pleasantly surprised. If the directions are followed this baby actually works. It's important to note that; A. The device needs about 5 or 10 minutes to aerosolize the repellent and B. It needs somewhat still air or the repellent will blow away. If there is a slight breeze, place the unit so the wind blows across it towards you and your guests. I am so happy that I can finally sit on my porch without having to douse myself with Deet or light incense in a feeble attempt to discourage attacks. My only complaint would be the cost of the refills.

SUPER DISAPPOINTED

I bought the rechargeable thermacell for a trip to Guyana South America. Mosquitoes love me and I usually suffer a lot. Needless to say this product did not help! Not to mention that I eventually I ran out of the deet spray. This product was not cheap. Clearly disappointed

Amazed with this product

I live in Florida, so mosquitos are part of our backyard everyday. We were with friends last night having a BBQ and we started to feel the mosquitos. I turned the thermacell on, and no even a single mosquito came back. We were all impressed with this product!! It truly works!

Actually works

It's always mosquito season all year and all day long in southern California. And we spend a lot of time outdoors and are always getting bitten. We recently put this out on an evening we were outside in the backyard and noticed that none of us were getting big bites. Amazing! We'll always have this around now.

Waste of money

After letting the unit warm up and run for 30 minutes, it seemed to have no effect on the mosquito population in my backyard, as evidenced by this photo. In the picture, you can see three things: The new thermacell I just bought, my legs with multiple fresh bites, and a live mosquito sucking the blood from my flesh. Waste of money.
