The YISSVIC 4000V Racket is a powerful hybrid device that functions as both a handheld swatter and a stationary UV trap. Its 4000V transformer provides a higher kinetic "pop" than many 2500V models, making it effective for thicker-chitin insects like large flies. The chassis is built from high-impact ABS polymer and features a nickel-plated stainless steel grid to resist oxidation in outdoor environments.
The 1200mAh battery can be recharged via USB, eliminating the need for disposable alkaline batteries. In "Always-On" mode, the purple UV light attracts insects in dark settings, though this mode is best used while the unit is connected to a dedicated 5V/1A wall adapter to ensure a stable current and prevent battery swelling. Specifications indicate the neck is rated for moderate swing torque, though it should be handled with care during aggressive use.
After a large discharge, the capacitor may require 1-2 seconds to "re-prime" before the next strike is at full power.
Practical safety features include a triple-layer mesh to protect against accidental skin contact. While the UV light is a helpful attractant, its effective range is limited to about 5-8 feet and performs best when other light sources are turned off. This model is a versatile choice for home, office, or camping trips.
If you prefer a 2-pack of battery-operated rackets for multiple rooms, the Gamexcel 20-inch Rackets are a cost-effective option.
This hybrid tool fits perfectly into a modern utility room; see our mop and broom wall mounts for storage ideas.
