Just using mine for the 3rd night on a session.. Seems to keep the mozzys at bay, not been bit yet, totally silent,
Battery does not last all night but charges up quick off the power pack, or can use it left plugged in.
Lightweight comes in a nice little bag 😂
Only bought it for holiday as the missus gets bad reactions to mozzy bites so will hang if off her hanbag 😁
Had a lifesystems one which is absolutely pants in comparison and the inserts are no longer available.

My fox duralite was terrible for this, put some eazigrip on the legs which is designed for stopping screwdriver heads slipping in worn screws, it worked for a bit then started slipping again, tried roughing up the area with a file, this didn't work, got rid of it and will never buy fox again due to other issues,
Got a solar one now and the quality is ten fold in comparison, no leg slipping issues at all and a lot comfier...

Bloke called Alexandru Lupu, Who runs ALTechnologie does them, he is a very helpful honest bloke. I got some for my Technicat and they worked fine, my mate tried them in his microcat and also worked fine, obviously AT don't recommend this, however with no boat modifications they worked a treat and lasted ages... I had to put a few 5oz leads in the hoppers to make up for the weight difference to stop the props pulling in air and making that slurping sound,
Not sure how this will effect the microcat as they sit quite low anyway, they can't be charged in the boat and require a separate charger which he also supplies, batteries also have a percentage indicator on the top activated by a little push button so you know the power state... Hope this helps...
Oh and the speed increase is huge, I ran mine well trimmed back, it also seemed to drive straighter than when lead batteries were in it, may be due to the batteries constant voltage supply,

In that point, I've seen fish spook off h block markers with normal line on, and when changed to thick cord they loved it, even rubbed on it and the float would Bob away like mad, Anyway I digress lol

Just a little thread hi-jack, has anyone ever re-dyed there braid on the spools, 🤷🏻‍♂️.. Get some colour back in the Korda stuff...
I've used the Noir and it is a very nice braid, sinks very well, holds it colour ok, eventually goes a dark grey which is fine... Casts ok for thick sinking braid, better than the Korda for casting the 20lb version anyway.. Think the Korda comes out on top for abrasion resistance but only slightly... I've tried power pro and didn't rate it at all, and faded very quickly.. I'm sticking with the Korda and the Noir, Korda for boat work noir for casting upto 140 with no shock leader...

I use a little memory foam pillow shaped to your neck.. It's a travel one and is comfy as started getting sore shoulders when fishin 🤷🏻‍♂️.. This definitely reduced it slightly, however when it's cold the memory foam fails to expand again, so it's rubbish in the winter.. Not sure if this is the case with all memory foam pillows, I suspect so.. Never seen a temperature warning on one 😂.. Guessing they expect bedrooms to be warmer than a brolly
