cantona 310 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 anyone been using the new collar, is it anymore accurate for pinpointing, cheers for any feedback. Quote Link to post
culltheweak 1,054 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 you still get whacky readings when the dog is traveling around the earth same as old collar wait till the numbers stop its quite smaller and recharable is a plus Quote Link to post
terrierman taunton vale 82 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 new collar exactly the same as old one just rechargable so no battery section so slimmer cheers jamie Quote Link to post
wink hound 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 that isnt true jamie.some tech has changed. i have actually found the collor even more random than the old ones until the dog is dead still. you will find you will get the same reading over a larger area, then it will sudenly change. it seems to stick on numbers. but like when the forst system came out, you get used to this. the main advantage ive found isthe size of the transmitter but more importantly the size of the red collor.

wink hound 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 ive found the charge to last along time. i know in testing it got alot of use as was only charged 5/6 times in the season. Quote Link to post

gonetoearth 5,144 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 of course the numbers will change if the terriers moving , when the terrier has settled and the quarry has stopped , it shows a reading , all these location systems are not meant to track moving objects they were meant for avalanche and earthquake victims,in tandem with probes to locate bodys , i never owend the old collar , having had a deben,but this system is a differant class, and getting more confident every time i use it Quote Link to post
