Frequently Asked Questions

The Solazar is a solar-powered electric bug zapper designed for outdoor and indoor use. It uses a 365–395nm UV light to attract insects across up to half an acre, then eliminates them instantly on contact with a 4500V electric grid. It charges via solar panel during the day and automatically activates at dusk — no switches, no apps, no effort.

It kills them. The UV light attracts insects and the moment they make contact with the 4500V electric grid they are eliminated instantly. You will hear the zap. No traps, no bait, no waiting — just instant results every time.

The Solazar works on mosquitoes, flies, gnats, fruit flies, wasps, moths, aedes mosquitoes, houseflies, and most other flying insects. The 365–395nm UV wavelength is specifically in the attraction range for a wide variety of flying pests.

Up to half an acre — roughly 2,000 square metres. That is more than enough for a standard backyard, patio, pool area, or camping site. For larger properties we recommend placing two units at opposite ends of the space for full coverage.

Most customers notice a dramatic reduction in insect activity within the first 2 to 3 nights. Over 90% report fewer bugs within the first week. For best results place the unit away from competing light sources so the UV light is the dominant attraction in the area.

The monocrystalline solar panel on top charges the built-in battery during daylight hours. A full solar charge takes approximately 10 hours in direct sunlight. The included 10ft extension cord lets you position the panel in full sun while the zapper unit sits in shade or wherever you need it most.

No problem. The Solazar includes a USB-C charging port so you can top it up from any USB power source in around 4 hours. Solar is the primary charging method but the USB-C backup means cloudy days or winter months never leave you without protection.

A full charge delivers up to 12 hours of continuous runtime — enough to run from sunset to sunrise. In auto mode the dusk-to-dawn sensor conserves battery by only running when needed, so your charge lasts even longer over multiple nights.

Push the steel ground stakes into your lawn, hang it from the included hook, or set it flat on any surface. Position the solar panel toward the sun using the 10ft extension cord. Switch to II mode for outdoor auto operation. The whole setup takes under 5 minutes and no tools are required.

Yes. Switch to I mode for continuous 24-hour indoor operation — ideal for kitchens, garages, living rooms, and covered porches. For outdoor use set it to II mode and the light sensor handles everything automatically.

Yes. The Solazar uses zero chemicals, zero sprays, and zero radiation. A protective safety net surrounds the electric grid and the anti-leakage system prevents accidental contact. Completely safe to use in yards, patios, and outdoor spaces where children and pets are present.

IPX5 rated — fully protected against water jets from any direction. You can leave it outside in rain without bringing it in. Some customers clean it with a garden hose. Just switch it off before hosing it down and avoid high-pressure jets directly into the grid.
