It is discontinued yes mate. And when my refills I had ran out I could not get more.
I ordered one of the USB ones Baitman recommended. Got a pack of two for £10 from Amazon delivered next day. Came with 60 pads too. Brilliant little things and work just as well. I also purchased an extra 30 pads for £5 from someone else on Amazon that come with great reviews.
Not used the 30 extra pads yet, but the 60 pads that come with the two USB gadgets are excellent. I'm the other side of the world now. Me & the missus both get eaten alive by mozzies & midges. Not been touched. They def work well.
This is the two machines for £10.

These are the spare pads I got.

I don't think the raid ones are all that, i got some when ordering spira branded ones on Amazon. Tried the raids in my thermacell and wasn't impressed, but to be fair, when i tried them last summer in France the mozzies were really bad.

Anyone used the "raid" branded pads, any good? I ordered the "Aroxol" branded ones from Amazon but got sent the "raid" ones.

Does exactly what the expensive ones do.
It's cheap because it has no internal power source. Connect to a power bank, minimal drain.
Even cheaper from ali, £1.83, or £2.25 with 30 tabs.

Is that the little battery operated one? The discontinued it ages back and i gave up looking for refils which was a shame.
I have a couple of thermacell now, backpacker and original, both great

I use 2 pads, but have used one in the past without a huge difference.
Green setting inside bivvy, Red setting if outside.
They last somewhere around 6-7hours at a guess.

Can anyone please recommend the best use of this, as in how many pads do you use, what setting is best in different scenarios, inside bivvy, under brolly etc, how long are the pads actually effective for etc etc?

Or go old school...
I used to have another tea light candle lantern, so much better than the upright candle holders, but the glass broke on it.
The uco micro folds down into its body and protects the glass, a lovely bit of kit.
