18V ONE+™ Cordless Bug Zapper (Bare Tool) Reviews

Verified

Don’t get me wrong, I like Ryobi as a brand. I have quite a few of their other items but this is in relation to this which to date, has zapped zero flies or bugs, so it gets 1 star. If anything, just a waste of battery life tbh. This was for indoor use. I wish I could get my money back on this one.

Doesnt actually attract the files to zap them!

Didn't think it was working at first then suddenly could hear the crackle and more as it got rid of the pesky flies. It did get a moth as well.

This is the Best Buy for this summer weather with all the bugs about we bought one for the caravan loved it so bought another for home thank you for a wonderful product so much better than a candle

Pleasantly surprised at the battery stamina, easily lasts a night of exterminating the little buggers. Like the 2 hour timer as can be left on when off to bed - works best in the dark. Lamp needs a tap now and again to activate, think i must have a loose connection somewhere. Else would have received a 5 for quality.

Ideal portable Bug Zapper - ideal for outdoor areas where access to power cables is limited and avoids children and other guests tripping up over cables

Had a few bug zappers in the past but none anywhere near as good as this one from Ryobi.

I originally sent this Review to the Manager, Techtronic Ind. Marlow but have had no reply. I am very, very disappointed with the Bug Zappers performance RY18BZA and cannot understand why other users have rated it a 5.. I have bought many things from Ryobi, including Lawn Scarifier, Hedge Cutters, Secateurs, Batteries and chargers etc. and found them all well made, of excellent quality and rating 5. However the following is my experience with the Bug Zapper RY18BZA: A/ So far it has not caught any flies - either they are not being attracted to the blue light; or the frequency of the Bug Zapper is not correct; or the lamp is under powered. They are flying around the kitchen. B/ I have heard the Zing sound of the Bug Zapper when it has caught something. In the Bug Zapper tray I have seen Moths and minute Biters. But as I was looking, one of the Biters flew off and the Moths were moving. They were not dead. Hence the power of the Bug Zapper is not enough to kill them. C/ I have taken the outer casing off and there are dead Moths and Biters in the uprights, which I expected. D/ It is very expensive. I can buy a Zapper with Mains Plug, 5 star rating for £50. E/ At the end of the Owners Handbook under Product Specifications, it states "compatable Battery Packs RB18...C/ RB18...X I am using Ryobi 4Ah High Energy battery RB1840T Why is the Handbook not brought up to date as I am sure this 18V+ battery is usable with this device. Kenneth Lawn Scarifier, Hedge Cutters, Secateurs, Batteries and Chargers etc .and found all of them well made and of excellent quality, all rating 5. However the following is my experience with the Bug Zapper RY18BZA: A/ So far it has not caught any flies - either they are not being attracted to the Blue Light

Didn't have high expectation for this bug Zapper but boy oh boy it is the dogs nuts, I took it out to bulgaria where the mosquitos run free and I kidd you not! Not 1 bite from the buggers. Absolutely buying a 2nd one for another seating area in the garden.

Of all my tools I have purchased this one comes top I can leave my front open for the warm summer air to gather round my house and at night I put this on for 4-6 hrs and all I hear - to phrase a pun - Are insects dropping like flies! Great idea great tool.

Verified

It is excellent really glad we bought it

I have the fly killer on, but it’s only occasionally that flies go and to be zapped. Don’t think it’s good value. Shame as I am usually very pleased with ryobi.
