電蚊拍以其實用、方便、滅蚊（蒼蠅或飛蛾等）效果好、無化學污染、安全衛生等優點，普遍受到人們的歡迎，已逐步成為夏日滅蟲不可缺少的工具，成為夏季暢銷的小家電產品。電蚊拍主要使用(yong)4V可充電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)的(de)(de)高(gao)容(rong)量(liang)鉛(qian)酸電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)池(chi)或2.4v鎳氫/鎳鎘(ge)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)池(chi)，也(ye)有(you)用(yong)干(gan)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)池(chi)的(de)(de)。工作(zuo)中，經升壓(ya)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)路在雙層(ceng)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)網(wang)間(jian)產(chan)生1850V直流(liu)左右的(de)(de)高(gao)壓(ya)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)（電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)流(liu)小于10毫(hao)安，對人畜無害），兩電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)網(wang)間(jian)的(de)(de)靜(jing)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)場有(you)較強(qiang)的(de)(de)吸附(fu)力，當蚊蠅(ying)等害蟲接(jie)近電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)網(wang)時，能(neng)將它們吸入電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)網(wang)間(jian)，產(chan)生的(de)(de)短路電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)流(liu)隨(sui)即(ji)將其電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)斃。電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)蚊拍產(chan)生的(de)(de)高(gao)壓(ya)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)還能(neng)釋(shi)放一定量(liang)的(de)(de)負氧(yang)離子(zi)，既(ji)可殺菌消毒(du)，又能(neng)凈化(hua)空(kong)氣。

在選購(gou)電(dian)蚊(wen)拍時要掌握技巧(qiao)。質量好的電(dian)蚊(wen)拍可通過觀(guan)察手(shou)柄、電(dian)網及相關標志的方(fang)式去辨別(bie)。正品的電(dian)蚊(wen)拍手(shou)柄多用工程塑(su)料制成(cheng)，光(guang)澤度很好；而次品往(wang)往(wang)是用回(hui)收塑(su)料二次加(jia)工而成(cheng)，不(bu)僅有毛刺，斷裂(lie)的可能(neng)性也很大(da)。質量好的電(dian)蚊(wen)拍的電(dian)網一(yi)般為三(san)層構造，且相鄰層之間距離較大(da)，看起來(lai)電(dian)網比較厚。同時，正規廠家生(sheng)產的電(dian)蚊(wen)拍都(dou)標有產品名稱、操作方(fang)法、廠址、廠名等信息，產品還附(fu)有說(shuo)明(ming)書(shu)。
