I think they are completely different, other than using the same unit (heater). If you want to keep bugs off and attract deer you probably need to carry one of each.

I love mine and don't think I have ever spooked any deer with it. I had a doe walk right under me last season with it on (I had to tamp my footto get her out from under there, where I could get a shot).

ThermaCELL does work and does not spook any game. But there is what yea call a "NEW" kid on the block that I just saw at ATA show. It's called Scent King. Insect repellent lasts weeks not hours. No more buying fuel tanks of butane, runs on batteries and lastsa lot longerthan butane. Check it out at www.scentkingoutdoors.com

Check it out for yourself. More effective and cost less to operate. Scent King unit cost the same as a ThermaCELL.

Interesting product...thanks for the post. I'm glad to see the product can be effective when moving, something Theracell doesnt' (or at least they say that).

The questions I have looking at the website;

1) How much for the unit?

2) How much for the refills?

3) Does it give off a scent or make noise?

I agree with all these folks, here in SW Georgia the skeeters will carry you away, to hunt without one means you will donate a couple of pints of blood to those pesky insects! love mine.

Thermacell works as MeanV said. I used one last year while blackbear hunting. I'm glad I had it along and what surprised me the most is how quickly it started working once lit. You won't go wrong buying one of these. The only thing to consider is the unit needs to be operated in the horizontal position. Great product.
