lurche 48 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 always thought it would be great if some clever person could bring out a micro chip than is imbedded into the ferrets neck that transmits a signal to a box would be so more comfortable for a ferret now that is an even better idea never lose a collar,charging it or changing batterys might be a pain in the arse but there must be some way of not needing them Quote Link to post
Jamie m 668 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Bollocks the mk3m collars are kak IMO. I have seen the metal connectors break or fall off on the insides of at least 4 collars! They are all pretty shite at turning on and off with that crappy magnet. The best collars Deben made were the mk3 grey collars, reliable, fit better and once the battery's are in they work! Don't work in damp wet conditions ????? And a pain put in tape on and off no thanks Quote Link to post

max abell 196 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 im surprised no one else has come up with any to be honest theres not allot to them anyone into electronics shouldnt struggle to much to come up with one of these there only basically a metal detector tuned for a certain frequency Totaly agree they have no competition another company making locators would make deben improve any problems and be cheaper to buythough i am lucky iv never had any probs with my mk 3 touch wood 1 Quote Link to post

Yes the old mk3 grey collars are definately better than those cumbersome big fecking things they brought out. Quote Link to post
