Thermocell
 
I dropped my much needed thermocell in the water this mornin and didn't notice for about 30 minutes, is it ruined or is there something I can do to make it strike again.

We dropped ours. Let it dry or hit it with blow drier. Take it apart and dry inside peices! Put it back together and hope for the best I did that today and fixed ours

Do y'all have good luck with the thermocell's in the duck blind.

Yes they work great in the duck blind. For some odd reason the Mosquitos were non existent where we were hunting.

Good to know....

And it always amazes me that one day there are no Mosquitos and the next morning you hate to open the door to your truck because they are attacking the vehicle.

I'm in the same pickle. Dropped mine in the water Saturday, along with 2/3 of my body, but saved the iPhone. So chalk it up as a success!

All I did was take the canister out and let it sit in the truck over night cranked up on the first strike.

Easy fix I fixed mine in 5mib

The only componet that is a problem when wet is the "ignitor", of course w/o this you are screwed. It will/can dry and will work again since it is not battery operated. In a pinch, if someone has a cigarette lighter when it gets wet, they are capable of lighting w/ a lighter, but cup your hands around the flow chamber to hold as much propane as possible to facilitate ignition of heat burner. Know from expierence during turkey season!!! If you want it lit bad enough, it is possible!!!

Once mine dried (dashboard of truck) it was fine and that was 4 years ago.
