To put in sack, keep it right side up

6 months ago
Backpacker Mosquito Repeller: Heard some say it not fit in its sack. But it does, just do no insert it upside down in the bag, just keep it right side up, narrower end downward, easier way in. Then once you get to the wide top, gently wiggle the sack over it, and so easy does it all slide in softly. It's so/that easy. I like it when I cannot use or depend on skin, clothing or body chemicals, net or incense, and when I cannot use a battery version.

Questions

1 - 8 of 8 Questions

Q: Is this the Gen 1 (red threads) or Gen 2 (blue threads)?

4 years ago
4 Answers
  • A: I sincerely doubt these are Gen 2 as stated above. I would id them as Gen 1 for the following reasons. The second image in the listing clearly states it contains three refills, a bag and describes it as Gen 1. In the USA, a popular online store has both versions. Gen 2 comes with 4 refills instead of 3 and there's a bright yellow section saying it contains 16 hours of protection. The listed Gen 1 model has nothing about this mention of 16 hours of protection. It uses the exact same pictures as this Canadian Tire listing.
