Deben what a load of poop

Had no probs with Mk 3 as long as you remember to take the batteries out at the end of the day

I use the old MK1 knocker box and collars. Always spot on. Reliable. Battery in the collar and box has been in for over a year now! Never failed.

 

my ferreting partner uses the MK3 and collar... so far so good. Excellent locate and search function to be fair, hope it proves to be a good en!

 

It's a hinderence having to re-lay the nets every time a ferret passes so it's about time an alternative locator came into the equation... Something like a microchip in the neck or in a very thin collar is a long time overdue, but it would have to be a superb bit of kit for me to replace the Old MK1 mind!

I have both mk3 and mk1 boxes and I've gotta say the mark 1s are the best IMO, mines superbly accurate, I haven't got the mark 3 out in a few years, tho sometimes ill use the mk3 collars with the mark 1 box as they are compatible,

 

Cheers fd.

The mark3 needs some serious sorting out, the switching the collars on and off with a magnet is poor.

they could also have made the collar smaller.

the daft sounds it makes is also a pain in the neck.

I have both the mark1 and the mark 3m, and find i only use the mark3m collar with my old knocking box.

What i really find annoying is the ferreting experts that are used to test the latest kit, none of them come out and say what a load of shit.

no doubt Deben will be working on the new mark4.

Never had any problems with mine. Once the batteries are in the collars I keep the collars and the locator separate because I have had the locator turning mine on when travelling and this reduces battery life. I never leave the batteries in the collars or locator when not in use and I store them indoors.
