Battery longevity
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: Sarah S
The battery doesn’t last as long as I’m would like I expected maybe it’s a last at least 24 hours had to stop during an event to plug it in not a big deal really just sharing my huh moment I had was my first experience using it. I guess I was expecting to not have to bother or think about it till the end of the night or the next morning after I cleaned up, there were no mosquitoes except for when the battery died that’s how I knew it was dead and the mosquitoes came back. Also, you would think that you would take a minute for mosquitoes to come back. They came right away as if they were waiting for that 20 foot zone shield to close East Florida mosquitoes are a different breed of dinosaur I swear

Thank you for your feedback. The EL55 has a 9 hour battery life if you are using it as just a repellent and no light feature. Sorry you thought it would last 24 hrs. We always have room for improvement and apreciate your feedback.
Listen this is the best if not the best then idk what could be better cause this is finally a solution to these annoying mesquitos without having to put any thing on your skin this not only protects you but creates a barrier an invisible forcefield surrounding you so not only you but every one within the zone is protected kids dogs you can move freely without worrying about getting attacked also idk if it's just me but I feel as if it repels all insects when this is on I don't see any kind of insect around me I love this product thank you guys keep up the freaking awesome work in the lab!!!!
