The temperature indication of 50 ° deters many people. It must be said that this heat is limited to a few millimeters and a few seconds and is quite bearable. For me, this is by no means a pain. If it is very itchy, the heat at the injection site is directly enjoyable and brings immediate relief.
One should, however, first press the button and then hold the Bite Away-bar on the insect bite when the green light indicating that the temperature has been reached. Otherwise, the application time is prolonged. The heating from cold lasts namely about 4 seconds. If the rod was once heated, the temperature then for further stitches is in stock. Whoever mistrusts the heat, can take away the bar at any time, or start with 1 sec. And slowly approach the 3-5 second.
The heat rod is definitely worth every penny of its purchase price.
