This trap comes supplied with 60W 60W (2 x 30W) Actinic electrics offering good catch rates (though up to 40% lower than Mercury Vapour bulbs) from either mains or generator power supply in built-up areas where a brighter (e.g. Mercury Vapour) bulbs might be inappropriate. This traps can also be run with mains powered Mercury Vapour electrics, or battery (12V) powered Actinic electrics (not included). These 240V electrics are supplied with a IP56 waterproof control box, with compression flanges and 10 metres of input lead and 2 metres of output lead. Can be powered from mains or a generator.

This collapsible fabric trap has a body shaped for stability and good wind resistance, a collapsible central cone which is carefully shaped for efficient capture, a large UV resistant rainshield which is vital for rain protection of Mercury Vapour bulbs and a tough container bag.

For all lights, trapping efficiency may be improved by restricting the exit area at the base of the cone, using the accessory cone extender, so reducing moth escape.
