I bought this one relatively recently after witnessing the original (and much more expensive) merrko working well on my lake. Takes the same battery size as my vaper and comes with a mini USB charging dock so convenient etc

TBF the product looks exactly the same and dare I say it from the same factory? Either way it works well during full sunlight and tufties def don't like it / also works on some but not all mallards. . . . . .coots / grebes don't seem to be bothered; swans get vaguely annoyed and slowly turn away but still come back once you've stopped aiming it at them . . .

Not having a pop but I bought one of these on a recomendation and has no effect on birdlife on several lakes I tried it. I think you need the zoomable higher lumens (20000+) type which are difficult to find in stock on ebay.

This one works as stated on my water - used it on Sunday during bright sunshine - you need to aim like a sniper in their faces and wiggle it about; tufties flap off pronto

I've got a red torch (Carplife) for tufties and a green one for coots. I've found on my waters that Tufties aren't bothered by green but definitely are by red and vice versa for coots.
