Customer Rating:      Summary: Incredibly Fabulous!!! Comment: I am graphic designer. I have international customers so this means I work days and nights very frequently. And because of the difference in our GMT I use to work at nights more than ever.
Between me and my 28" monitor screen -which produces a lot of light- used to fly hundred of termites. These bugs are attracted by the light, and I don't know how but they always found the way to violate the security of my sealed window to come inside my room and "dance" in front of my face!. I just can't find the words to express how annoying this situation was!
Since I have my Flowtron this situation became a bad memory of the past!!!!
This lamp is gorgeous, I must say! I installed it just right out of my window, so the termites are attracted FIRST by the Flowtron light BEFORE the light on my room. So now the only thing I hear is the happy sound "BZZZ" when the bugs find their end into this glorious lamp.
Btw that "BZZZ" sound does not disturb me at all. Even I love when it sounds because it (first) confirms me the Flowtron is working in a perfect shape, and (second) makes me smile every time it sounds because it means I WON my fight against those little bastards!!!
Here, while I write this review, I could count more than 100 "BZZZ". That means 100 termites LESS who didn't come inside!
I installed a switch inside my room which controls the on/off of my Flowtron, so even I don't need to go out to my backyard to turn on my Flowtron, I control all the operation from the inside! Very convenient! (Note: the switch is NOT included in the Flowtron box. This is a custom installation I did myself).
I got the ½ acre coverage; my backyard is much smaller than that and this thing works perfect.
The construction of the lamp is very decent; even it looks great as if it were part of the deco in my backyard.
I bought also a replacement bulb (in advance) because when the actual one goes out I don't want to find myself unprotected!!! Since I got my Flowtron just 15 days ago I can't testify how long the bulb lasts, but honestly I don't care!; if this thing works as it has demonstrated I'll be happy to buy more future replacements, even if this come to happen in short periods!
In conclusion, this is the BEST solution I've found to solve my problem. This Flowtron bugs killer works FANTASTIC!
To end my review, I want to share with you that I have a lovely population of salamanders (small lizard) in my backyard. They are my allied because these little guys use to hunt termites. They just don't eat enough to solve my problem, but they eat termites anyway. Now with my Flowtron I've found the salamanders in the floor eating termites happily (where the termites fall after shock). Yes sir!, "roasted" termites for my friends the salamanders in my own Roasted Termite Restaurant! :-)
Thanks for reading, Juan
Customer Rating:      Summary: Kill Bugs but quality and design is suspect. Comment: The product worked for the first 3 months then when I unplugged it for the first time it for relocation the product would not restart.
I thought it was the bulb but it was actually the starter which is soldered directly on. When reading the warranty it says that I would have to return it to the manufacturer for the starter to be replaced. This was going to cost a lot in shipping.
Luckily for me I was able to jiggle and play with it till it started again and left it on. I'm too afraid to turn it off now...
..oh dear...
Item works though that is why I gave it 3 STARS...just suffers from a bad design ...
Customer Rating:      Summary: GOOD VALUE! Comment: Bought my first unit 4 years ago. Liked it so much, I bought a second. Great price at Amozon.com.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This thing works! Comment: The Flowtron bug zapper works very well--I may have to get another one for the front! We have a very shady yard with low spots in the back, so the mosquitoes are terrible. We wanted the Flowtron because we wanted the mosquito bait, and it really invites them in. A few days after we first put the zapper up in the back yard, my son & I were able to play on the back patio for over an hour before the mosquitoes started heading for us instead of the zapper. We're usually lucky to get 5-10 minutes before we start slapping, so this was a real treat. We love the Flowtron!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent product Comment: The Flowtron Model BK15D is ideal for the typical backyard. The vertical electric grill is self cleaning. I also have a competitor's electronic insect killer and it has a mesh grill that I have to clean every two weeks. I will be purchasing another Flowtron for my other home that I go to on the weekends.
