The Buzbug MA015B uses a modern LED architecture that aims for sustainability by removing the need for mercury-filled glass tubes. The LED strips are mounted on an aluminum substrate that helps dissipate heat, which protects the internal components and maintains the unit's longevity. This slim-profile zapper is designed with a 2,000V to 2,500V grid, optimized for clean results that minimize insect fragmentation.
The housing is made from high-impact ABS and features a 7mm safety gap, making it a suitable choice for indoor environments. Because it lacks a magnetic ballast, the unit operates without the constant hum associated with older models, only producing a sound upon contact. For the best attraction, it is helpful to place this unit in the darkest corner of a room, away from competing light sources.
- Solid-state LEDs reduce waste by eliminating annual bulb changes.
- The vertical form factor saves space on countertops or shelves.
- Draws significantly less power than traditional fluorescent zappers.
For larger commercial-style kitchens that need to meet strict sanitation codes with shatterproof bulbs, the Gardner WS-95 Sconce is an industrial alternative.
