Roxant Pro Mini Strobe Light Halloween - 24 Super Bright LED Light Bulbs - Adjustable Flash Speed Control | Party Decorations | Party Lights

The short: I used four of these lights in my attic and the flying squirrels disliked them enough to leave!The interesting long: We heard noises above us at night, and our pest people told us we had flying squirrels and set a few kill traps to be sure. Yes, that's what we had, and seeing the little cute things dead in the traps was hard for my soft-on-animals heart. We set a few more anyway, but these things are smart and moved to a different area (above my closet) to avoid the "predator". So we paid $100 to have a critter expert tell us what we needed to do to keep them out, and we hired our less-expensive contractor to do that work. But that doesn't really solve the problem of the ones that are in danger of being sealed in, does it? The options are to let them die, set kill traps and possibly leave some to starve to death (it's baby season!), set live traps and one by one relocate them at least 10 miles away (and still possibly leave babies behind), or convince them to relocate before the sealing-in project. Since we aren't angry at these critters and don't want to deal with foul smells, we opted to try the mental approach. So I researched and researched. And researched. My conclusion was that the sonar things wouldn't work, and the smell things would be too iffy and numerous and high maintenance. There were people who vowed they had success with strobe lights though so we looked for those. There is one that is specifically advertised for critters but it is $150+ for each one and given the twisty-turny attic we have, that would mean $600 plus the work of installing them, all in *hopes* they'll work and a not-so-great return policy. Nope. Well, we found these little guys for $20 each and, thanks to Prime, could return them if they didn't work. Yes. But we did also have to buy extension cords because the cords on these are only like two feet (maybe), and then we also had to get one of those light socket adapters that have an outlet on them. Note: the strobe lights are two-pronged; no need for the third ground prong. Still- all that was cheaper than just one of those other lights! So I did a simple placement of the four strobes and within two days I did not hear any more activity above my closet- hooray!! But I did still hear them above the ceiling in the living room. For a few days I just hoped that was them packing up their babies and leaving, but after a week realized that they just decided to concentrate in a non-strobed area. (Isn't that what you would do??) So.... I blocked an hour, donned two headlamps, wore my smartwatch in case *something* happened, made a bag with a staple gun and more extension cords, and began my serious investigation. (One thing I did NOT have on which I should have was a mask!!) I am a limber 5'0" 120lbs so maneuvering around the joists and ducts was fairly easy, but I can't imagine if I was not so.... Anyway, I found even better places to move the lights to and secured them! That was Saturday, and today is Monday. This morning (I get up early!) I heard nothing, sweet nothing. I call this a victory, and hopefully my contractor shows up soon.What I love about these lights: 1) Affordable!! 2) Small but mighty 3) Very lightweight 4) After a week of running all the time, they were still cold to the touch 4) The strobe effect is adjustable, so I suppose we can also use them at Halloween (we currently have them on full blast) 5) the cords are narrow enough that the staple gun had no issuesJust one tip: Do not have any other lights on while using these, as the strobe effect will be diminished. Although I used a socket adapter, there is no light screwed in. If you have windows in your attic, you will want to somehow limit the natural light that comes in.Last note: customer service on these is fantastic!

We live in the country and have a lot of wildlife around that we enjoy.Our problem is that some has decided that they want to live under our home.We have skunks, opossums and feral cats all living under here.. They do not appear to get along and are fighting and making all kinds of noise and the skunks wind up sprayingAnd the odor is horrible in the house. Plus the noise they make keeps our dog running from room to room barking at the floor.We have just received two of these strobes and they seem like they are well made and very bright. Have plugged them in to test them and they work great.. Have left them on and wrapped in plastic to make sure they would not get hot and start fire, however they stayed cool and did not generate any heat.Cannot wait to install them to try to make life uncomfortable for the critters.. I will order more to place around the outside of house to prevent more from moving in.I wish these were water proof so that they could be placed outside but you can wrap them in plastic and put them outside anyway so them not being waterproof is not a big deal.. I can see where these would be good for other things beside scaring off critters like parties and halloween etc.The price was very good and cannot wait to get more.Thought I would give a update on this strobe light.I have tried everything that we could think of to get rid of the critters that had taken over under our house and nothing had worked, even tried a device that hooked up to the water hose and would soray when a critter would come close.. I should have left a bar of soap out with a stack of towels because the critters seemsd to enjoy taking a shower there..we even installed 3,600 watts of lights around the house thinking they would not come around with the place lit up like a airport, seems that just made it eaiser for them to find our house..Anyway finaly decided to give the strobe lights a try even tho I really did not expect much from them.After the first night with the strobe lights ( 2 of them) mounted on a board and placed under the carport flashing on the house where they were going in and out we have not heard or seen any critters since and our dog is no longer running from room to room barking at the floor.. These things are wonderful small light weight and very bright.. And the compsny is fantastic. To deal with, had contacted me to make sure I was happy with the lights, they seem to be very intrested in happy customers.. I have ordered a couple more that I plan to put under our motor home to prevent critters from getting under there and chewing wires etc.. i also bought a photo electric unit that turns the lights on at dusk and off at dawn..

I found this on Amazon as I was researching strobe lights for my Halloween display. I have a Nightmare Before Christmas theme, and recently added a Wreath that comes alive in the movie. I wanted a strobe light to enhance its appearance and create the illusion that it was moving.I like the idea of the product being LED-based so there is no bulb to burn out and power consumption is minimal. The price seemed reasonable so I placed an order.The unit arrived in two days (Prime member) and is as expected and described on Amazon. Small, light-weight, plastic housing.I mounted the unit on a wooden stake in the front yard using zip-ties. The unit is light weight enough that the unit is very secure. With the pivoting bracket I was able to aim the strobe beam directly where I wanted it, adjusted the knob on the back for the best flash rate, and achieved the exact result I had hoped for.Since the unit is not rated for outdoors, I did put a Ziploc bag over it to shield it from dew and rain. With the cool running LEDs I have no concerns about overheating in the bag or the bag melting.Overall, I am very pleased with the quality, functionality and value of the unit for my application.

My family and I were hearing unpleasant scratching sounds coming from the ceiling and discovered there were squirrels in our attic! We placed the Mini Strobe Light in the attic one day ago and we have not heard any scratching sounds since. I also went to check the attic to double check if there were any unwelcome guests but we found no signs of squirrels! The light worked perfectly and scared them away. The light itself is compact and easy to move around. The price is fair and the light comes in a well-packaged and secure box. This is a very good product and worth every penny! Thank you Roxant!

We are really happy with this mini strobe light. We are redoing our basement, so underneath our house is exposed. We wanted the mini strobe for keeping the critters away. The price seemed fair . At first It seemed flimsy and light, but it is perfect! Does not get hot which I was worried about. Would recommend this product. We also liked the different settings. Nice little compact light, looks are deceiving !

Had it for halloween. Works ok, not super bright and very small.
