The product, in the report: Packtite luggage heater and bed bug prevention
while using the packtite, we smelled something hot, I ran upstairs and found that it had overheated and caused the vinyl tiles on the bathroom floor to discolor and lift. We have not used this product since because we feared it would cause a fire. It was over $350 to protect us since we travel, but not worth losing our home over.
