I did get this for my house. It works great. The only downside is when a fly does touch it it's very loud. Just a big popping noise. Other than that, no sound. We celebrate each time we hear a loud pop.

The look on the guys face in the pictures at you link had me laughing.

replace batteries and be careful not to break the wires. Yes, they do work.

My brother in law had one of those cheap ass things from Harbor Freight, he told me to pinch it, and being the idiot I am, I did and got shocked pretty badly.

From the eHealth forum

"i read in a magazine that if you shock your penis with an electric fly swatter it should make you ejaculate? i was wondering if it is even safe to do that? "

Was surprised at how effective it was. Purchased a cheap one but ours malfunctioned before the summer was over.

I use it for flies, mosquitoes, and those annoying little moths that come in bird food. They are great, but I wouldn't spend 20. I rec'd mine as a gift, but I saw them once at Aldi for $5.99. I hardly ever have to change the batteries.
