Now that i think about it, it probably worked cuz it was (excusing the potential damage) hanging right on top of my head. probably my CO2 attracted them to stay there until it is time to strike, but alas, they got shocked to death.

Diode, I have a humble request for a video! Chinese sellers sell something called Battery Desulfator, from what I've understood it feeds high voltage pulses to lead acid batteries and somehow that makes it work again, isn't this dangerous? Can't this make a battery overheat and explode?

If it's a short pulse it won't have the time to overheat, but better to check anyway. I remember building a battery restore circuit along a tutorial out of an old film camera flash, but that was for NiMH batteries. Probably a good shock made it come alive again.

The idea is the high voltage breaks through the lead sulfate crystals that build up and cause the cell or battery to fail. Hence possibility restoring the cell or battery enough that it can be used again. However, I’ve not actually tried this myself.

Cheers 🍻 to your “Fire Extinguisher 🍺” 😉🧯 Interesting device to try and suck in mosquitoes 🦟 but as you say it’s junk out of the box 📦 with its own cable!!! The fan should be strong enough to keep the mosquitoes 🦟 pinned down against the end of the airflow path and dehydrate them, in the bottom of the grill it sits on. The collection bin has 4 tiny plastic feet to lift the grill like 1-2mm up off the flat surface. I barely noticed the feet.

These vacuum mosquito traps actually work; I've captured several last year.

I was half expecting this to be designed to kill "inhaled mosquitoes."

@andreasu.3546

I think, once inhaled by human, a mosquito will be pretty much dead without any additional devices used.

I have fixed one with a faulty fan and the fan doesn't work on 12v, which is sooo weird. Can you look at the fan?

"Inhaled" had me guessing for a while until it dawned on me that there is a suction/vacuum mechanism for sucking in the mosquitos...

please teardown the gongtian w910 mini fan rechargeable.

If you suspect there are mosquitos in the trap, get a can of flyspray and spray some above the fan so it suck it into the trap. This will kill of any critters.

Funny video. Thanx

When removing the screws say- “one screw, two screws, thrrreee screws ahhh ahhh ahhh.

You should put an used sock to bring the Moskitos in the fan

Do next video with the same thing but you test the fan force,try to make an weight less object almost as if it is the same size or same weigh as mosquito and try to put it on the fan to see if it would suck it up.

Against all the presumptions about Mosquitos, what they see and what they don't, these 'dodgy' looking devices, indeed work if used the right way. You keep them in a place where there's little air activity, and relatively darker than the rest of the room, primarily, the safest place for mosquitos to hide. Run it though the night and you'll know. These devices come in different arrangements, not all are effective though. The mosquitos die gradually as they dehydrate due to continuous air draft, they're not killed by the fan.

that on off is for the musquito tray

Cool..

Good old Chinglish instructions.

If you don't want to wait for mosquitoes to die before opening, you can accelerate the process by igniting 70+% alcohol spray into the fan, should instantaneously roast most of them :)
