Mk1 Or Mk3,which Is The Best Collar And Box?

[northwestferreting 1]

Theirs always contoversy about which collar is the best,and i am after finding out what you people think,the mk1 or mk3, in my opinion,a quite biast one it has to be the mk1,its simple enough and not as i would say"over technical",so what do you guys think?

[George Kinloch 16]

I bought a mk1 and an mk3m.

And I can honestly say the mk3 is 1million times better. If ur not a technophob and u learn how to use it, it's brilliant.

The mk1 was ok. But when your doing warrens on banks it's a pain. The search function on the mk3 really makes life easier.

That's just my opinion though.

mk3 all the way spot on DM

I've used a mk 1 and while it is a great bit of kit...i find the mk 3 better with its 16ft search ;+)

[woz 260]

I bought my mk1 and two collars for £46 new and loved it...iv moved onto a mk3m and to start with it rely pissed me off but now iv got the hang of it I probably won't go back to a mk1....

mark3m is brilliant and actually very easy to use once you get your head round it think some people dont give it a proper chance i would never go back to mark1.play about with it first before you bring it near the field get to grips with it saves you getting in a mood and going back to mark one.

what do you mean by old school....surely not waiting it out...feck that...lol

 

I cant believe anyone would say the Mk1 is better. The Mk3 has a greater range so your wandering around looking like a chimp swinging ya arms. Its more accuarate and less things go wrong. In fact i've had the Mk3 since it first come onto the market and never had a thing go wrong with the box or collars.

 

And for that are unsure on how to use the Mk3...why? switch it on, it beeps....look at the depth, get as close as you can (just like the mk1) and then dig!!! Its even got search mode for ranges between 8 - 20 feet...then when its less than 8 feet...switch to locate. Lesson over...no need to thank me...lol
