I used to work in an industrial park and there was a company that made chocolate liqueurs. One Christmas they had a bit of a disaster on one of the machines and sold off the mutants for 50p/bag. The boss told us about this and had a lab full of half trollied techs/engineers about an hour after that.
The Ritter Sport brand is quite big in Germany (it is a German company). They have all kinds of flavours (maybe around 20 all around the year) and 2-5 seasonal versions.
Funny and true. I get a lot of my stuff from asia and well, at least with solder flux, when you cant read the label it performs better than expected. I think because of the chemicals forbidden in the EU, but who cares :D ...
I bet you fall over laughing when you hear the German for "father." It's "Vater." Which doesn't look very funny when it's written down. Unless you know that German's pronounce "v" as "f." And the "a" is long, as in "ah." Even funnier is the form used as an endearment. The German equivalent of "daddy." It's "Vati." I suddenly had a flashback to several Ben Elton routines...

Exactly. I have the app installed on my phone and when my wife saw it I had some explaining to do 😂 Luckily actually opening the app and showing her the marketplace averted disaster.
Here in germany there are aprox. 20 to 30 different types of Ritter Sport chocolate. If you want to eat really good chocolate, choose the Lindt balls. They're overwhelmingly good.
Some Lidl supermarkets over here in the UK do have a Ritter stand/POS display with a good selection of flavours, certinaly the one in Weymouth, Dorchester does, and possibly Crewkerne as well.
Ritter Sport.... mmmmm.... They had these in DC everywhere with all the diplomats around. By far my favorite of the worldly chocolates I've tried in America.
A few years back I talked to someone from Ritter Sport at a trademark seminar and asked which was the most expensive to make chocolate they have (they all sell for the same price, so being a cheap bastard I had to know). He said it was the Rum Trauben Nuss, mostly due to the rum they use. So if you want to optimize your Ritter price/value experience go with that. Just thought you'd want to know. (It's pretty damn tasty as well.) PS: Don't pre-break the chocolate before cracking open the package. It's designed to break at the first row. Then you shouldn't have that Marzipan mess you found. :-)
It's borderline evil if the idea was to use the nightlight to attract the little buggers optically, while the heat signature siren-songed them to their fates via their heat-seeking imperative. Int'resting. Clever.
Gonna need some actual facts there Thomas, as your claim is quite big. Citronella is one of the most widely used insect repellent in the world. I suspect that perhaps mosquitos in your personal area are particularly resistant to citronella, and you have committed a fallacy from localization bias As for OP's comment, its likely because if they claim their product is technically useless, they don't need to be held to any standards, but people who buy without thinking will still buy their stuff
@bigclivedotcom : "It might work in a camper" "A lot of people in America live in trailers". There may be a misconception Clive, some words are used differently between our countries. Most people in the USA do not live in campers or trailers, which are different. A camper here is the same as a caravan there. There are primarily used for camping, although a small number live in them. They are not designed for full time use and are pulled behind a truck. A motorhome have its own propulsion and there are models for camping all the way up to luxury multimillion dollar expansion units with multiple floors. A Trailer home here is referring to a home that is factory built as a full time home, but has wheel for delivery and rare movement. They are often made as "double-wide" which are 2 units attached to each other and never moved. They are made in a factory for lower cost and once assembled are not separated and have looks of a stick built home.
I used to get eaten alive by any bugs in proximity when I was younger, but ever since I got extremely ill in my early 20s and was put on all sorts of medications, they absolutely won't bite me at all any more. Insects are fascinating in that they apparently can sense remotely just by chemicals you exude how 'tasty' you are, or aren't.
(Mmm off-topic) I love the RitterSport with the Yoghurt Fruit flavors - they are hard to find, though. Sometimes as a sample pack with small 2x2 squares in elongated box. Note that most Chocolate in germany comes from a Swiss company, which was apparent when an Edeka store had made an example of having only German products - the store was left with 10-20% products and no chocolate, if I remember clearly :)
[Comment written before watching the video - it's more fun that way] I bet Rodalco2007 would be interested in this insect vaporiser. The best he's managed to do so far with electricity is make wasps catch fire. Vaporising them would take it to a whole new level of bug zapping.
Hi Clive. Since you mentioned the overlap between vandwellers and techies, it occurs to me that there's also overlap between those two groups and what you called "man and dog" in another video.
that black usb device looks suspiciously similar in shape to a usb C to HDMI converter i have. i wonder if its using the same mold with different internals.
The candy sounds great, found a lot of candies that I liked when I was in Germany for 3 years. Problem is back here in the states, the only way for me to get them seems to be on Amazon, and the prices are out of this world.
For some damn reason, I woke up at a quarter to 5 AM this morning, so what better to watch then Big Clive at 5! We spent 3 winters in our Class A Motor Home, I loved every second of it; wish I could get back on the road, but family problems have kept me in my sticks and bricks home in South Dakota. Just to punish me for staying away for 3 glorious years in the Desert Southwest, mother Nature slammed me with a horrid winter that still hangs on even now at the end of May! DAMN you mother nature! That bug deal looks like a great device for traveling up in this part of the wold where bugs are thick as honey. Strangely down in Arizona there were not very many insects.
I've been using a couple of the "LED Mosquito Killer Lamp, Electronic Insect Killer, Bug Zapper Mini Light Lamp" for some time now and find that they work well at attracting and killing small insects that love ultraviolet light (the LEDs in these), and without the nasty chemicals or excessive power usage. They just use a few LEDs and an electrified "screen", and plug directly into AC (120 here). My simple watt-O-meter only registers above about 0.5 watts and these little bug zappers don't register, so I don't know what they're consuming (not having bothered to diagnose deeper), but I'd assume not much. Clive, if you would be interested in checking some of these type devices out it would be nice to see your results.
@@bigclivedotcom Sort of, but smaller and oval shaped: smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B074276LX4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (no longer available but very similar others are). I just took one apart, but being a novice I can't do the complete Clive thing, though I can say it contains four LEDs, two 400V caps (both brown, one larger than the other), a rather large gray 51K ohm 5% resistor, and two diodes. And yes, when removed from mains there's still voltage on the metal "screen", which, when finger touched gives a fun little shock. After having learned this the hard way, I now use an old tooth brush to clean the screens. I've also shorted the screen very briefly w/a metal object and got a nice spark, but no apparent damage to the unit.
My uncle had a paint store, he always had those strips hanging up. As a little kid I was fascinated, I would count the different bugs on them every time we visited.
Ritter Sport products are available from Lidl (UK) but whether they are the same recipe as Germany's is questionable cos sometimes they change stuff and ingredients to suit various markets. Clive can we have a Friday Night Clive once a month and grab some good stuff to cannibalise and entertain.

Me too clive. It's almost 4 in the morning here in Victoria, Aust. It's too late now to go to bed as I'll have to be up in two hours, so I'll lust keep on drinking cups of tea.
I wonder if they would work in a grow tent do pyrithrins kill or are they a repellent cus if there a repellent in a trapped space they wouldn't really work
They sell Ritter Sports here in Canada. There are tons of flavours hee, but none that you have. I'm German, so I grew up on wafer cookies and generic chocolates.
It seems bizarre to use LEDs as heaters since they're more expensive than a PTC. Unless there's a specific reason for wanting light. Like attracting the insects. Which means they come a lot closer than they might to an ordinary vaporiser. Which means you don't need to put as much vapour out, so you can run at lower power and your consumable tablets last longer. So it's a very clever design, if that's really how it works. Or a very stupid design, because it's not good at killing the insects and the light will keep you awake at night. One or the other.
Vodka? Nuts? Chocolate? Whoever thought of that combination (a) had way too much time on their hands, and (b) is a bloody genius. Even though I'm not fond of sweet things, I like the idea of that.
Theyve also got a Gin edition thats excellent as well. On top of that, theire also relatively cheap (round about 2 € for the small gin or vodka editions).
Heh, you're surprised at different brand name for the same product in different countries? In the US, we have brands that change name on different sides of the country: Hellman's/Best Foods, Dreyer's/Edy's, etc. Those are exact duplicates with the same graphics and logos. There's also dozens of regional names either bought up or created de novo by companies such as Macy's (nee Federated Department Stores) and Kroger's.
I would suspect that the corporate ones owerdo it so that they can sell more tablets. My experience is that they have very little effect anyway. The spiral ones are slightly better.
Clive, I would like if you would ever make a kind of fan-unboxing stuff. I have a lot of stuff here (to eat for example) I would send you. Maybe a lot of other people here would do this too. Just need a post adresse.
You could buy them both and use the high powered one to boost the area before going to bed, then as you settle down for the night change to the lower powered one, this would save the battery and also give a night light. Only problem with a light, would the light attract the insects you are trying to get rid of in the first place?
I had non USB version of these kinds of devices and they work really well, actually too well. I'm kind of scared that those tablets are unhealthy so I stopped using them. We installed insect screens on all windows which is healthier (I guess?) and also more animal friendly.

2am here (+9 gmt). Somebody sciency related once told me that a lot of insects are attracted or not to you depnding on how much c02 you breath out, smoking and beer drinking aparantly can make you more attractive to some species.

Vodka? Nuts? Chocolate? Whoever thought of that combination (a) had way too much time on their hands, and (b) is a bloody genius. Even though I'm not fond of sweet things, I like the idea of that.
Theyve also got a Gin edition thats excellent as well. On top of that, theire also relatively cheap (round about 2 € for the small gin or vodka editions).
Chocolate and nuts is a pretty obvious combo, so is chocolate and alcohol lol. To the point of being banal even
Heh, you're surprised at different brand name for the same product in different countries? In the US, we have brands that change name on different sides of the country: Hellman's/Best Foods, Dreyer's/Edy's, etc. Those are exact duplicates with the same graphics and logos. There's also dozens of regional names either bought up or created de novo by companies such as Macy's (nee Federated Department Stores) and Kroger's.
I would suspect that the corporate ones owerdo it so that they can sell more tablets. My experience is that they have very little effect anyway. The spiral ones are slightly better.
i love Ritter chocolate. unfortunately its like $5.00 bar here in America.
that moment when candy review is longer than video itself
Clive, I would like if you would ever make a kind of fan-unboxing stuff. I have a lot of stuff here (to eat for example) I would send you. Maybe a lot of other people here would do this too. Just need a post adresse.
nice choccy but foxy not allowed seen most of these in Lidl but they don't seem to have it now
Rum Trauben Nuss is a classic.
Interesting though that they don't have any neutral flavour where you are...
I feel finally somewhat relevant here as a german. ;) Do you need assistence in translating anything weired? :) Johannisbeere is currant btw.
Was the middle one cookies and cream? The picture looked like how it's normally drawn/looks
@@Mashamazzi top was nougat and walnut and bottom was straciatella which is italian (ice) cream with bits of dark chocolate.
@@Mashamazzi which one do you mean? Mind a timecode? One in the big yellow bag?
I love the strawberry yoghurt Ritter Sport. Nice and PINK too ;)
I'm hoping they don't use lices skin as a colourant as in Fristi :-)
You could buy them both and use the high powered one to boost the area before going to bed, then as you settle down for the night change to the lower powered one, this would save the battery and also give a night light. Only problem with a light, would the light attract the insects you are trying to get rid of in the first place?
0:45 _“There must be something particularly delicious about ladies.”_ Oh Clive, I am loving that comment, coming from you, on so many levels.
Isn’t Manner technically Austrian?
Annelise Meier Yeah that is right The Manner is actually and original from Austria 🇦🇹 my friend 🙂😎✌️
You could try chocolate on the heating element and see if you can make a tiny USB powered chocolate fondue.
For dipping the insects into.
Dang! I wanted to send some of those liquor thingies... we have 3 versions of these in smaller box and 2 larger ones.. Edle Tropfen in Nuss...
what i really want is something to stop them flying directly towards my eyes, other than wearing glasses all the time.
I had non USB version of these kinds of devices and they work really well, actually too well. I'm kind of scared that those tablets are unhealthy so I stopped using them. We installed insect screens on all windows which is healthier (I guess?) and also more animal friendly.
Klaas Deforche I heard that bats do a good job as well
@@punker4Real yeah but they are hard to contain. Got a couple of frogs but those are too loud.
Apologies if you've answered this or a similar question before, but I'm curious to know what your take on Robot Wars/BattleBots/King of Bots would be. I feel it would be something keen to your interests, especially in the modern format.
Although admittedly, part of that is just me wanting to see what sort of incredible thing you'd build if you were to participate...
I've watched robot wars from early on. The modern bots are ridiculously destructive.
But… can they self-disassemble?
Get back to me when that's possible.
@@bigclivedotcom They really are! There's a phenomenal amount of variety in the designs now as well, especially overseas. Flippers, crushers, spinners, projectiles; there's even a couple of ludicrously big hammers out there too.
I'm actually looking forward to the new series next month. Discovery and the teams have all been releasing teasers since January and the hype is infectious. If you get the free time I recommend watching a few episodes. (Also thank you for the reply! You're one of my absolute favourite TH-camrs!)
@@michaelthibault7930 Look up "Apex vs Track-Tion".
A lawn-mower turned upside-down isn't *_cheating_* ?
B12(yeast) and GFarlic help you up[set the insects, they wont touch you if you have eaten allot.
really want to vape, an insect?? think there are better flavors....LOL
In Transylvania they eat Marmite and Garlic sandwiches to keep the vampires away.
@@FarleyHillBilly and onions as a hand to hand weapon..
mildly disappointed you didn't put the chocolate in the vaporizer.
Yeah, I honestly thought that was what the entire video would be about - and wondered why the hell Clive would be doing that!
If you enclose a box of chocolate with your bottle of rum would Ralph be in a position to award the rum a higher Malt Score ???
Ritter chocolate is very very good, you should try the chocolate mousse bar.. my mouth waters at the thought, sadly they stopped importing those here...
1:40 It is "nimm 2 soft", "nimm 2" (literally translated to "take two") is a candy brand here.
So it vaporizes both German chocolate and USB insects? Sign me up.
As a German, I have to say your pronunciation of the germany candy is really good.
I guess scottish people can fake it better than other english speakers. I think clive knows a little bit of german though, he seemed to know that kirsche means cherry for example, which is not intuitive
Is that one of the new Poundland power banks I spy there Clive? Hope to see a video on that soon
2am here (+9 gmt). Somebody sciency related once told me that a lot of insects are attracted or not to you depnding on how much c02 you breath out, smoking and beer drinking aparantly can make you more attractive to some species.
You can get 9 volt as well.
