A beekeeping smoker without the fire. This smoker has an integrated battery that plugs into the smoker and heats up an element. Once the element is at max temperature, you take a rockwool pad which is impregnated with pine-scented essential oils and drop it directly onto the element. The combination of heat and oil creates a really thick pine-scented smoke that is absolutely perfect for calming down your bees.
