12 volt bug zapper

I bought a portable 12 volt bug zapper that lasts 5 hrs on a charge or I can just leave it plugged in. It's fullsize and not cheap junk like most of them are.
It sure was working great last night and it'll be nice to unplug it and hang it inside to catch the few flies while I'm out

Well - this bug zapper together with your smoke alarm that tells you to "Shut UP!" should just about complete all of your camping necessities.

But what are you going to do when all the bugs you zap start to sizzle and smoke and set off the smoke alarm? I think a YouTube video of the resulting chaos would be in order.

Hmmmm, good question! Lol I noticed last night that when they get zapped they just drop and no smoke. I remember the ones back on the farm they would actually fry and there was a hell of a lot of smoke.
Still can't wait for the smoke alarm so Darla can cook The only problem will be is she telling the smoke alarm to shut up or telling me to shut up

I've got one that doesn't use current to kill. It uses led lights to draw them close and then they get pulled into it by a fan. Looks like a fan from a laptop computer. Very quiet and in the morning just twist the top off and dump in the garbage.
