Our farm would look like a "Genesis" concert, and I'd be covered in scorch marks!

Hi Humayun, :)

No mention of the effective range of the device? It needs at least a 5 metre radius.
What of the overshoots? Will it burn a non target animal? (namely me):D

How fast is it to react? Can it neutralize a small swarm of the blood sucking varmints before they get to their victim?:D

Me thinks it to be an interesting toy;)

Call me sceptical.:lol:

Cheers Marty

Firstly, that new avatar is awesome! You?

Secondly, I have already found the secret to avoiding mosquito's at night, you simply do not exhale. Or exhale then run for your life. :)

Is this the leftovers from all that Star Wars technology of the 80's where old Ronnie Reagan was going to shoot down evil satelites and all they can manage are mozzies? :lol:

I can see some evil mastermind developing this and holding the world to ransom. :P

Where's James Bond? :thumbsup:

Forget about mozzies, I want to zap cockroaches. Sydney, with our 7 weeks of constant high humidity has given us a cockroach invasion of biblical proportions. I think there was even a mention in Nostradamus of our plight .I will put up with the high power bill to get rid of the varmints.

Forget it John - the true meaning of your life is to keep those mossies away from me.

Suffering is good for your soul. :)

You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! Now evidently my cycloptic colleague informs me that that cannot be done. Ah, would you remind me what I pay you people for, honestly? Throw me a bone here! What do we have? Mosquitoes being destroyed by Laser beams, seriously!

Cheers
