Thanks for the honest and straight up practical review you did for both of these products, I'll be purchasing the Nitecore EMR40 for my swamp adventures.
@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA how has the longterm use of these been.... looking at getting the 40... amazon reviews aren't the best. Id sooner trust your review than most people on amazon.
@KTMsoldier1988 I love mine been with me nonstop since I’ve got it I use it with nitecore & thermacell pads plus the charge seems to hold still to what they claim
Thanks for your Flextail tests videos. You saved me from a mistake purchase. I canceled my order after yours and three other tester videos on its failure at working. I still haven't decided what one to go with.
Thanks a lot, I've just ordered the MR40 unit. I was a bit worry about the small flextail tiny s, so after watching your video, it was clear to me which model I should order.
Man, thanks so much, wouldn't have found this product without your video. Not a hunter, but I work in the country-side of NC outdoors. All of the rain this year has made the mosquitoes unbearable. Only wish I had found your video at the beginning of the summer, rather than the end!
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA I didn't for the 10, but I will... it worked so well on my UAV jobs, I'm gonna get a couple of the 40s for the group. Thanks bruh!
Good review. A duration test is needed. I got the EMR40 yesterday and put it to work in outdoor mode with a Nitecore mat in still weather. Within 10 minutes mosquitoes were not bothering me and I was impressed. But after an hour they were undeterred. Mosquitoes even hovered around the unit with no effect. That was with a Nitecore mat that uses prallethrin. I wonder if Thermacell mats (allethrin) last longer. Or possibly those cheap import half size pads that use meperfluthrin.
It all depends on the wind for all of those in my experiences, I mean I just sat for 40 mins total in 10 min intervals and when it was on I was fine and when it was off they were all over me I’ve used them with both and had great success for lengthy periods of time with Both pads in both units
Tried it again today with much better success. That other day I used a sample mat that came with the unit and it did not work very well and the mat remained blue after 2.5 hours in outdoor mode. This time I used a mat from their 30 pack and it worked properly, keeping the mosquitos away for hours with the pad being mostly white after around three hours of use in outdoor mode. Perhaps there was something wrong with that sample mat.
One point worth making here: these pads use a nerve poison, and it is one which causes disorientation and malcoordination in insects rather than instant death. So, all it really needs to do is just make them so drunken that they cannot bite, rather than anything else.
They don’t sell on Amazon I use both the thermacell pads linked or here is the nite core here www.nitecorestore.com/Nitecore-EMR10-Repellent-Refill-p/acc-nite-emr10-mat.htm?srsltid=AfmBOorq-mhmvHWHuUf3OnBrRe-pHp23b5ih3VhuAf8FIo5G1BjmYjZJySg Hope you used the link in the descriptions to order it!
I’ll be picking up one of the EMR40 repellers but I have several thermacell burners for my pool deck I just refill the carries with an $11 can of butane which will refill about 16+ butane cartridges and I buy a 200 count of pads for $10.00 online.
For hiking/hunting, I agree with ya for the 40. As a car camper I’ll go with the 10 or possibly even the EMR 30 but there is limited reviews about it. Maybe the ultrasonic will keep the chipmunks out of my snacks. Nice videos!
thanks for the review....and the perspective brother. What I mean by perspective is seeing how some people can be excited to see Canada Geese. Us here in Toronto Canada, fear them more than we fear bears. We dont call them Hissing Cobra Chickens for no reason. lol
Wish I had seen your test before I bought my Flextail. I am on holiday in Barbados and I’ve been bitten too pieces, they just don’t work and are a waste of money. When I get back to the UK I’m definitely going to order a emr 40 for walking and fishing because those mosquitoes just love me and I had to wear a tee shirt and long pants right through my holiday, in 85 degrees and I am going home without a sun tan 👍
I have an EMR40. The pads turn from blue to white but I don't see any vapor coming off the pads. The is the same problem you were having with the Flextail which doesn't surprise me as both devices report using the same 329 degree heating technology. Please let me know whether or not you see vapor from your EMR40 so I will know if this is normal or if I have a faulty unit. Thanks for your time and willingness to test these devices for us!
You betcha man! And your mat changing from blue to white is literally telling you it’s being heated up The flextail’s issue was it never got hot enough to activate the pads The nitcore is not having that problem at all
I'm one of those people mosquitos just seem to love. My partner is Italian so I always get bitten to death whenever we visit her homeland. My trusty thermacell (or a metric frick-ton of DEET) have been the only options I've had any success with keeping the "zanzare" at bay.. I'm not sure how you'd manage a sound reproducible case, but have you considered a series of tests to find the best portable solution, like something you could clip on a bag or a belt that would work at walking pace? Nitecore and Flextail seem to have a few products. P.S. Thank you for putting yourself through what you've done to date, the amount of reviews on youtube of mosquito repellers the content creator hasn't even tested is ridiculous.
That’s why I started doing this test this format… it’s a spot on test that actually shows if it works or not… at my expense 🤣 FLEXTAIL sent me a replacement unit to try plus I’m gonna film more with the nitecore’s as well My favorite so far is the nitecore’s emr40 it’s been unreal I have it on me always now! This is where I got mine www.amazon.com/dp/B0CBQSW9JH/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_VTMWWT16QFQPJVQF0DNC?linkCode=ml2&tag=bluecollaro09-20
sold, ill get the smaller one. been using the thermacell for so long but have run out of butane and not had more cause im an idiot. being able to recharge sounds awesome and love the smaller form factor
@bigvisk1125 just Amazon affiliates I like the freedom not a huge fan of sponsors or anything like that just flat out performance The performance talks the rest walks on this channel always
The links will take you to it also I just got the new design based from it to test, the emr06 TAC sweet little unit but I haven’t got to test it yet… Here it is : www.amazon.com/dp/B0C2S5GWGC/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_B34R9K97W3HX66J7JE1B?linkCode=ml2&tag=bluecollaro09-20
Just went out to do some plinking and the mosquitos were the worst I've ever experienced. No wind. Had this thing and it did absolutely nothing. Front of pad was white, but oddly enough the part of the pad closest to the heat pad was untouched. Hoping I got a lemon and the replacement will actually work
i bought the emr40, tested it in the garden. after 30 mins of running it did nothing. Even held it 5cm away from one on my leg and didnt seem to bother it at all
Thanks for the video, very informative. Can you tell me or do a video on your thoughts on these Nitecore and Flextail mosquito replants after using them for 8 or 9 months? How do they hold up? Is one brand better than the other? Does the Flextail work as good as the Nitecore if you use Nitecore's mats or Thermacell's mats?
Flextail is trash Nitecore is solid it’s right up there with thermacell with reliability, actually used the emr40 more during bow season / early goose than the thermacell
I made the mistake of buying the flextail before I watched reviews. I mainly bought it for smoking cigars on the back deck in summer. Mosquitos tend to wear my ankles out because it’s outside of easy swatting range when sitting in a chair. Well, I used the flextail at max setting and placed it right between my ankles. Mosquitos still flew right up to my ankles, despite the flextail running full throttle. The pads even changed color as they were used and still had no effect on the mosquitos. I’m either buying the nitecore version or the thermacell backpacker which runs on butane camping fuel containers. The biggest issue I always had with the thermacell was the disposable butane fuels that ran out WAY before the mats were used up. Probably end up with the backpacker seeing I’m an avid hiker with loads of butane cans, own plenty of thermacell pads already, and theoretically the MASSIVE quantity of flextail pads I purchased with their unit should work as well
Thanks for your informative video. Do you think the 16 ft radius advertised is accurate since you had a mosquito land on your ankle with the first one? Moving the device to that area of your body to chase a critter negates the purpose. And is there a clip to hang it on a belt or such? Appreciated!
You should of sat there with no protection, prove that there were mosquitoes in the area. Once the sqitters where all about you, then you turn them on.
I did not intend to get you upset. When you do tests you should have a control. You didnt show one in the video. At 4:22 you entered the swamp. At 5:37 you started up the EMR. I watch these test videos to decide what solution to possibly buy. I dont watch you to watch you so you get views. If that were the case, I would simply not watch. I was giving you a suggestion, that would lend a bit of credibility to your test. Just sayin@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA
@tomginger9687 I am not upset, rewatch the video and you’d see I sat there with each unit for 10 minutes with no protection I just fast forwarded it as it’s unneeded to show Mosquitoes were all around same thing when I switched to the other unit and same thing when I concluded the testing I don’t film videos just to film them I film product reviews to bring content that helps others make smart purchases why the hell else would I go purposefully sit in a swamp loaded with mosquitoes I mean seriously come on 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Maybe you should watch the FLEXTAIL vs thermacell test did the same thing and I got MAULED here check that here th-cam.com/video/dw83zp2AtSU/w-d-xo.html I can tell this may be your first video of ours but our following knows we stand by our no bs performance talks the rest walks testing and that’s how we film every video we have no sponsors or nothing that influences our videos except pure performance
Amazon is not carrying the emr40. i am looking at the EMR06. it has a small battery but I can always use a power bank. It would be great if you tested the EMR06 ($30).
Constant charging is a pass for me. One day trips these would be fine. But we run them 12-16 hrs a day in the glades. Easier to use a backpacker with a 12hr pad. 100hrs on a 4oz can.
Everglades mosquitos were the worst thing I’ve ever experienced. I’ve never seen mosquitoes that didn’t care that your clothing was permethrin treated head to toe. Camped on a chickee and the buzz was so loud at night it kept me awake, not to mention PILES of dead mosquitos that suicided on my treated netting.
The only issue is the ex90 is huge defeats the purpose for hunting I do plan to test it come spring! I had fun doing these vids I’ll test whatever people want to see!
That would be awesome, looking forward to it! I have a butane Thermacell, but wanting a battery powered version for camping and have scoured the Internet for a comparison to no avail. Really want to know which brand works better with battery versions. Thank you so much for your sacrifice 😅
thanks for the review the way i see this kind of product is all the same stuff one heat by gas or battery power at the end what it count is the pad thermacell pad vs nitecore padi think thermacell backpacker is the best at the moment reliable fuel canister can easily refule when it done usually when i go out campiing i use few thermacell backpacker and Sawyer Premium insect repellent
Man, 3M, and DuPont got us so loaded with forever chems, I think if you fill me up with scotch guard, wrap me in a fire retardant blanket, and light my short 'n' curlies with a match, everything in a 40 foot radius wishes it was dead, and they won't me after that.
Hi! I’m thinking about buying something for camping against mosquitoes. Out of all your tests, what’s the best product you tried? And what’s the minuses of it?
without concerning the size, which one you would recommend in terms on their effectiveness? i am now looking for a new repeller as my hacked thermacell is not hot enough
I liked the emr40 better than the emr10 just because how small it was but I just broke mine, dropped it and it won’t charge or turn on anymore lol so I’ve been using the emr10 I’ll be starting to film more mosquito repellent videos again!
I have their patio shield and was thinking of that one for walking/hiking. Definitely want non-butane for that and something more effective than the wrist bands
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA For sure, but what were the more affordable alternatives you cared about recommending to your viewers. $50+ au with only 3 pads.
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA The specs say it lasts 4-6 hours but in my experience the pad turns white after the first hour so I can only guess when it's time to replace it.
@elocevets I just replace mine every 4 hours I have not got close to 6 hrs yet but I change mine based on performance if I start seeing bugs I just change it usually around 3.5-4 hrs
So what’s best for indoors? A bedroom for example. I’m going to this town down in Mexico, that’s surrounded by swamps. These MF’s eat you alive in your sleep. Typically ppl down there use Raid Coils. You light them up and the smoke is suppose to repel them. Nonetheless, I still get stung quite a bit. I actually want these mosquitoes dead. I hate them so bad
Well they have bigger options that are more suited for that application as well www.amazon.com/dp/B09X9HGT4L/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_YP739K4HN8XGGP7EWF3K?linkCode=ml2&tag=bluecollaro09-20 www.amazon.com/dp/B07KSK7DQM/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_2ECHFDM6PN62YKRGVH9S?linkCode=ml2&tag=bluecollaro09-20 www.amazon.com/dp/B09LXJB8DP/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_DC4B0183JPHQ1JZP1P1K?linkCode=ml2&tag=bluecollaro09-20 www.amazon.com/dp/B0BL1X4ZL6/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_72JA9K885PKXD1YZH3YP?linkCode=ml2&tag=bluecollaro09-20 All options I’ll be testing this spring and would best suit that
I was thinking about this too, just about to pull the trigger till I saw those reviews. It's been a few months now, is the emr40 still doing well? I really just need it to work on me personally, I don't need it to cover a wide area like it advertises.

Constant charging is a pass for me. One day trips these would be fine. But we run them 12-16 hrs a day in the glades. Easier to use a backpacker with a 12hr pad. 100hrs on a 4oz can.
Ya they wouldn’t fit that application that well!
Everglades mosquitos were the worst thing I’ve ever experienced. I’ve never seen mosquitoes that didn’t care that your clothing was permethrin treated head to toe.
Camped on a chickee and the buzz was so loud at night it kept me awake, not to mention PILES of dead mosquitos that suicided on my treated netting.
Thank you! This is so helpful.
That’s what this channel is all about!
Could you compare the Nitecore EMR10 vs Thermacell EX90? The Thermacell EX90 is also battery powered.
The only issue is the ex90 is huge defeats the purpose for hunting
I do plan to test it come spring! I had fun doing these vids I’ll test whatever people want to see!
That would be awesome, looking forward to it! I have a butane Thermacell, but wanting a battery powered version for camping and have scoured the Internet for a comparison to no avail. Really want to know which brand works better with battery versions. Thank you so much for your sacrifice 😅
@xtremetimma I got you hoss!! 🤌🏽🤌🏽
thanks for the review the way i see this kind of product is all the same stuff one heat by gas or battery power at the end what it count is the pad thermacell pad vs nitecore padi think thermacell backpacker is the best at the moment reliable fuel canister can easily refule when it done usually when i go out campiing i use few thermacell backpacker and Sawyer Premium insect repellent
There ya go!
Thank you awesome test.👍
Yessir hope you subscribe for more!
Which is more heavy duty? Thx for the video!!!
Watch this 1 year review vid it’ll help answer that question

Man, 3M, and DuPont got us so loaded with forever chems, I think if you fill me up with scotch guard, wrap me in a fire retardant blanket, and light my short 'n' curlies with a match, everything in a 40 foot radius wishes it was dead, and they won't me after that.
Nice!
Hi! I’m thinking about buying something for camping against mosquitoes. Out of all your tests, what’s the best product you tried? And what’s the minuses of it?
Love my nitecore emr40 but they just made a new design I’ll be testing shortly!
Check out the thermacell ex90 I have a video on it recently!
Emr10 you can use as powerbank USB C to USB C and charg phone.
Yes it can but my focus is the mosquito repellent feature
Thank you I appreciate it
You betcha!
Thank you, sir!!
Got you man!
Anything with thermocell works. It’s done with the blue pads
🕺🏼🕺🏼🕺🏼
Thanks for the great info
Awesome , thanks for the video
You betcha man hope you subscribe and share!
What species of mosquitos are prevalent where you are? Does it work for the Aedes mosquito?
No clue what species they are all the same in my eyes..
it works against mosquitoes
Thank you for this video. Much obliged.
You betcha!
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA I bought an emr zero five based off of your experience. Just wanted to let you know.
@GeneralKato how has it worked? Hope you used the links 🤌🏽🤌🏽
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA waiting for mosquito season to start but I have never ever used amazon. Sorry.
@GeneralKato nice!
safe to use inside of a tent with not much venting?
If it wasn’t I don’t believe they would be sold
can emr 10 works only with ultrasound without the heatpad for repel mosquitoes
I am not sure I’d rather just depend on the mat personally
Love the test
Thanks man
Question, will this thing work at high altitudes? The therma cell won’t.
That’s a great question I’m not sure I can’t test it at high altitudes
Emr40 only gets 3 stars and emr10 3.9 on amazon🤔 not best by far according to the reviews?
Not sure I go off my own personal experiences
without concerning the size, which one you would recommend in terms on their effectiveness?
i am now looking for a new repeller as my hacked thermacell is not hot enough
I liked the emr40 better than the emr10 just because how small it was but I just broke mine, dropped it and it won’t charge or turn on anymore lol so I’ve been using the emr10
I’ll be starting to film more mosquito repellent videos again!
You had no mosquito when you started! How can you say they worked?
Welcome to come join me and see that you’re wrong!
It’s not fun down there when you don’t have a working repellent
Thank you for the info
You betcha!
How long does the emr 40 battery last on outdoor mode?
It’s ran for hours without dying I can’t say accurately but I can test that if you’d like?
Thanks!
You betcha!
Can you link to where you find the earth scent repellent mats?
Here ya go boss

@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSAthanks man… thanks for doing the real leg work when doing reviews.
@YngwieLesso I got you man it’s what we do on the channel!
Appreciate you putting your blood on the line 😂
You betcha! 🤣🤣
thanks for the review
You betcha
Sweet. Do yall have any coupon Codes
We don’t no sir I’m not sponsored or partnered with any of these I just test and use the ones that perform
If you had to choose one, which would it be? EMR10 or EMR40?
Emr40 personally it’s better for hunting
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA It's because of the weight?
@rafenden no just smaller easier to clip on without getting in the way while hunting
You really can’t go wrong with either option though
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA That's super-helpful, thanks!
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA I'm wondering if the 329F on the EMR40 vs the 293F on EMR10 makes any difference?
Have you tested out the thermacell EX90?
Not yet!
I have their patio shield and was thinking of that one for walking/hiking. Definitely want non-butane for that and something more effective than the wrist bands
Hi can you review emr30 dual pads
It’s coming!
These things are unbelievably expensive for what that they are. Plant lavender, spray area, clothes, backpack, etc, with citronella.
I’ll stick with these!
Whatever works for you is all we care about!
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA For sure, but what were the more affordable alternatives you cared about recommending to your viewers. $50+ au with only 3 pads.
@Lana_Warwick I just test everything what performs I recommend what doesn’t I don’t I don’t mind paying for performance
@@Lana_Warwickplease link a study proving that citronella works
@@eldrinpaulgok-ong3450 I don't post links in YT comments.
Maybe do some diy research
Can I use thermacel pads inside the nitecore emr10?
You betcha!
Tried the emr40… doesn’t get as hot as regular thermacell. Doesn’t work as well. 👎🏻
I’d send it back!
Excellent
Yessir!
How can you tell when the heat pad needs replacing?
I just watch the pad it visibly shows as it’s being used up just like a thermacell pad
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA The specs say it lasts 4-6 hours but in my experience the pad turns white after the first hour so I can only guess when it's time to replace it.
@elocevets I just replace mine every 4 hours I have not got close to 6 hrs yet but I change mine based on performance if I start seeing bugs I just change it usually around 3.5-4 hrs
Is it true I can use the thermacell repellent mats in the EMR40?
@elocevets I have used both in mine with no issues
So are you breathing in what ever is being emitted ?
Actually I hold my breathe I’m very good at talking without breathing ….
Just messing
From what I’ve seen it isn’t bad for you
Do the earth scent thermacell pads work in the nitecore?
They do and vice versa
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA thank you, I couldn’t get a straight answer anywhere I looked. I appreciate the info
@BravvoSixx I got you!
Apparently it takes 10 minutes to start working
That’s what the rough estimate was for all these repellers so I just use that with all tests to keep it standardized

@_Hannah_.. thank you
While he is talking a mosquito is chewing the hell out of his left shoulder.
Let me seee!
So what’s best for indoors? A bedroom for example. I’m going to this town down in Mexico, that’s surrounded by swamps. These MF’s eat you alive in your sleep. Typically ppl down there use Raid Coils. You light them up and the smoke is suppose to repel them. Nonetheless, I still get stung quite a bit. I actually want these mosquitoes dead. I hate them so bad
Well they have bigger options that are more suited for that application as well

All options I’ll be testing this spring and would best suit that
👍
🙌🏽🤘🏽
Amazon user reviews showed 2.0 oit of 5 stars...ooops. what gives?
Not sure I speak on the performance I see personally
I was thinking about this too, just about to pull the trigger till I saw those reviews. It's been a few months now, is the emr40 still doing well? I really just need it to work on me personally, I don't need it to cover a wide area like it advertises.
@EjayMenchavez it has been for me yessir
@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA good enough for me, I trust your videos! You're a legend!
@EjayMenchavez appreciate that man!
There are no mosquitoes. Those things do not work. Get in a swarm and then demonstrate them. Thermocells don't work either.
Yep sure 👌🏽
For 100$ no thanks I'll get a 5$ bottle of spray !
The one is 100 the one is 40 both work awesome I have no regrets on either
Only the females bite.
It’s 2023 anything can happen 🤣
The males make the "whining" noise, don't bite. The females go in stealth mode!
@elsiepooh1 pretty sure his comment was more so a joke than a fact lol
Any advice against biting midges? Will these work against those?
We don’t have them so I’m not sure
