Thermacell E-ZoneGuard Patio Rechargeable Mosquito Repellent, 5.5-Hr Bat | Blue; 20-FT Zone; 12-Hr Refill; Scientifically Proven Outdoor Protection; Bug Spray Alternative; Scent Free; DEET-Free

The Thermacell Mosquito Repellent is the ultimate mosquito force field! I tested it in a remote mountain area, where the mosquitos are practically flying piranhas, and it held its ground like a champ. Pros: Mosquito Shield Activated: It worked like a magical bubble, keeping those bloodthirsty little monsters at bay. Mountain Tested: If it can handle the vicious mosquitos of the backcountry, it can handle your backyard BBQ. Portable: Small enough to take on hikes, camping trips, or anywhere the mosquitos are planning their ambush. Cons: Can’t Repel Everything: Sadly, it doesn’t work on other pests—like the friend who forgot their mosquito repellent and keeps wandering into your bubble. Real-Life Experience: Picture this: I’m in the mountains, surrounded by mosquitos the size of small birds, and yet I’m sitting there, unbothered, enjoying the view. The Thermacell created a bug-free zone that felt like a luxury suite in mosquito hell. Final Thoughts: If you want to enjoy the outdoors without becoming a mosquito buffet, this is your answer. It’s easy to use, incredibly effective, and mountain-proof. Highly recommend for campers, hikers, and anyone who values their sanity around mosquitos!

This actually works here in the Pacific Northwest. It is a repellent that forms a dome like zone that works well to repel insects, particularly mosquitoes in our case. It is a portable zone of protection that works great for a picnic table, a grouping of chairs or as a personal space if you and someone are sitting outside admiring the view. The caveats are that it does have a limited are of protection (like an invisible tent), it doesn’t work as well in any significant breeze as the effects are dissipated, needs recharging after an extended time, and the vapor cartridges need to be replaced periodically depending on how much you use it.

I’ve been using the Thermacell E-ZoneGuard Patio Rechargeable Mosquito Repeller and really like its compact design. It’s small enough to place on a patio table or take with you when spending time outdoors. I also appreciate how easy it is to swap out the repellent cartridge and that it charges with a USB-C cable, making it much more convenient than older models. The only downside for me is the refill cost. After just one evening of use, I noticed the repellent cartridge was almost empty, so it seems to get used up fairly quickly. The replacement refills are also on the expensive side, which makes the ongoing cost add up. Overall, it’s a well-designed and convenient mosquito repeller that works well, but I really hope Thermacell can make the refills more affordable in the future. If they do, this would easily be a 5-star product.

Pointless, fully charged overnight. Ran it for four hours, the liquid container/refill pod is depleted entirely and the battery is gone. Additionally, mosquitos were literally hanging 3 feet from it.

Works well to repel mosquitoes. Would have given more stars, but the battery does not hold a charge for very long, probably about two hours, and the replacement cartridges are unbelievably expensive - about $55 for three cartridges. All advertising states that each cartridge lasts 40 hours, but that is way off base in my opinion. Probably 15 to 20 hours, and that is generous. Works out to be well over a dollar an hour. Bottom line - very expensive way to repel mosquitoes.

I, like many of you, am apparently a kind and generous donor to the local mosquitos! That being said, I have finally found the product that has given my wife and I peace and mind when we are out back enjoying the evening or poolside. THIS... Is the Thermacell Mosquito Repellent E-Series Rechargeable Repeller and it means business. It is super easy, you simply charge the Thermacell, insert the cartridge, turn it on and allow about 5 minutes for the cartridge to heat up and start misting and BOOM!!! You are free and clear to live life outdoors. I cannot explain how awesome this has become, and has enabled me to enjoy my midwest evenings out back again without worrying about itching for the next week. Seriously, it is super easy and really just plain works. I saw it at a friend's house and didn't think much of it until I noticed I wasn't being bothered, and that was the last time I went home without a Thermacell out back. I really never notice that the battery runs low as I have a spot for it inside to charge when we come in so that it doesn't get rained on or lost... but the battery does last several hours. I am sure that you will love this product as much as I do once you notice the peace of mind given, the bigger back yard and need more protection? They sell two packs! This is the answer to a bug/mosquito-free summer and no more itchy bumps!

Only purchased recently but so far it has worked really well. I love that it is rechargeable. I used it 3 evenings and then had to charge it. It does not give off any smells that I have noticed. I love how it is small and I can take it with me around the house!

So the thermacell mist itself works great, and if you are wondering if that's okay, then yes it is. No smell, creates a field that works most of the time, and the chemical does last a good bit. We ended up getting third party liquid for it and it works fine and actually last quite a while. This review is specifically for the Blue version of the device that charges via Micro USB. It's horrible. We got 2 of these at the same time, a black version that charges via USB-C and this version. I don't know if the USB-C version has a newer battery, a better design, or whatever, but it has 3x the battery life and charges faster. We wanted to be smart and have 2 different colored ones for organization, but really regret getting the blue one. It's like paying the same price for a product that works 40% the amount the other one does. I guess we should label the blue one "Upper Management" and call it a day.

Muy eficiente, lo use dos veces y ninguna picadura tuvimos, pero NO DURA mucho el cartucho que viene, solo duró como 12 hr
