Anyone got one? I saw it at our local Meijer store and picked one up to trial it. It can also be switched into a regular solar powered night light. Just wondered if anyone else had one and what they thought. I will be trying mine this weekend, but not sure how buggy it will be this early in the season. Its on the deck now in the sunlight charging up. I hope to try it tonight.

Skipnchar, you need professional help.

I have one and we use it all the time! It isn't solar powered though, uses rechargable batteries. Really is nice when we want to sit out in the evening at the lake.
I think - but not sure - it is a Sunbeam brand.

I know you can have what ever you want but think of your fellow campers.
You have hit on one of my pet peeves. BUG LIGHTS.
The constant zapping sound does something to my nervous system.
It causes me to become very agitated. I had a neighbor whom lived across the street they never sat out or cooked out or did anything outside they had a BUG LIGHT when they went on vacation I would go across the street and turn it off at least I got some relief for a while. Thankfully they moved.
Loud music, loud talking, cussing and bug lights at campgrounds.
They all BUG me.

Are We talking about Yellow colored Bug Lights or BUG ZAPPERS?

I always hope my neighbor has one of these lights. The bugs seem to be drawn to them and away from me.

Don't know about the effectiveness of the bug light but the cheap solar powered lights have disappointing performance. They don't last long.
