The Devil"s tennis racket!!
First,i'll start by saying that this is the big brother of the standard Executioner. It is much larger and much more powerful. The measurements are 22in in legnth, the actual racket head measures 10 1/2 in x 8 in. The handle is the same size as an actual tennis racket, give or take. It is built very well and is very sturdy. It comes with a very nice case, and uses 2C cell batteries which are included. The unit activates with a single push button on the handle with a solid click,it must be held in manually. A red led and a high pitched whine let you know it is powered up and ready for business! This thing will kill pretty much whatever it touches in the bug world. It does so with a bright blue flash, and a snap that i louder that several cap guns. By mistake i swung at something at night and it was a bat, and this unit killed it (sorry, it was not intentional, i know bats are useful,my bad). This unit does not have the protective mesh on the racket to protect you from shock, so be careful. This is actually a good thing because it will zap any size creature, whearas the ons that have the protection are limited on the size of the critter they can zap. To wrap it up,..This is an awesome unit, well built, and will do what you ask of it. The only reason i didn't give it 5 stars is because i would have liked a power button that stays on when pressed. Buy this unit because it is larger and more powerfull, it is a little pricy but i feel it is worth it. Just a couple of hints: Since the handle is plastic it can be a little slick, especially if your hand sweats. I found that several pieces of non-slip tape around the handle works great (i used hockey tape). Keep this away from flamable gas or liquids. So before you go on a BBQ killng spree make sure you steer clear of the propane or lighter fluid, or you'll be the one getting fryed. Don't get it near to sensitive electronics, no waving it around granpa's pacemaker! KEEP THIS AWAY FROM THE KIDS!!!! You wouldn't let a child play with a frayed electrical cord, don't let them play with this. I accidentally zapped myself with this....super painful! This also keeps the pesky neighborhood dogs in their own yards,...along with the pesky neighbors!! LOL Hope this review helped fellow Amazoners' I will update if need be.
