I've just completed my beginner's beekeeping course and in the process of assembling my frames for my new hives. The excitement is building as I await my 2 nucs which I've purchased from a local beekeeper. It was great to find a UK vlogger/mentor on RU-vid. Your vlogs are very straight forward and timely...thank you.
I bought this item after watching your last video on it however I was a little drunk at the time and ordered 2 so I will be keeping the spare just in case. If I happen to win please redraw it so another viewer can benifit I really don't need another
Wow amazing Instead of carting around all my batteries and stuff on a wheelbarrow and taking forever, this unit will make it so much easier to do my treatment Thanks for showing us just how easy it is Keep up the videos Thanks Tony
I bought the second style with the thumb screw. It worked for a short period time. I contacted them about the torch that was horrible. I never heard from them. I had asked a question when I first bought it and they never replied to that either. My "Kracow" torch was in a box listed at that but was a completely different torch. Classic bait and switch. Or maybe an honest mistake, either way I'll never now because they never answered any questions or concerns.
Hey Roy. A fine stumble indeed! You won the GAS VAP plus the burner. Please email me on blackmountainhoney@gmail.com with your address and I will send it out to you ;)
Sublimox have a temperature control. That the huge difference to gas vap that can lead to dispersion in the threatment efficiency. But for sure some times is flexibility the key factor, when the threatment have to be done at the right moment.
I'd have to agree. Even though the sublimox has wires and a generator attached it's still my preferred option for routine treatments. Anything adhoc throughout the season get a blast from the gas vap as its so convenient
Great to see a review on this product, after treating my hives today I have come to the conclusion I need a faster method. Will lol on there site as last time I looked the torches were unavailable. Keep up the good work.
This has been super helpful, I’ve been put off (scared) of going down this route due to all the kit needed but this simplifies the process and for someone like me starting out, takes away a lot of the guess work. Cheers!
What a fantastic product and a great review of the product. Would love one of these much better than what I use at the moment. Hats of to bridge cottage for the design.
thanks Laurence, another great vid. Was never sure of the benefits especially when just a couple of hives, but on second view I can see that - fingers crossed for the draw then!
