Vaporizer Bee Vaporizer Purpose - Administers oxalic acid treatment to bees to fight varroa mites. How it works - Inserted into the pan of the evaporator and placed under the bee cluster through the airhole, allowing the oxalic acid to evaporate. Power and performance - Powered by 12V at 150W, using a car battery to generate the necessary heat to evaporate the oxalic acid. Power compatibility - Designed for 12V power sources and car batteries, enabling portable operation in the field. What makes it practical - Simple integration into an existing evaporator setup with a straightforward placement under the hive through the airhole. - Portable power requirement supports fieldwork and locations without fixed electrical outlets. Use scenarios 1) Backyard apiary treatment - Connect a standard car battery to power the unit and treat a single hive with oxalic acid vapor to combat varroa mites. 2) Mobile field operation - Move between hives during an outdoor job; use a vehicle battery to provide power, allowing multiple treatments in one trip. 3) Large apiary management - In locations with limited electrical access, use the 12V car battery setup to administer oxalic acid vapor across several hives efficiently during routine varroa control.
