Guest pip Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Does anyone know when or if B and F are bringing a new collar out for the 2008 season?I read it somewhere and am buying one but no point in buying the old model if they are bringing out a new hopefully improved collar.

harddigging 42 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 id buy one anyway then save up for the new collar its allways handy to have a spare collar. with a bit of luck they may be out a bit earlier it was last september when i spoke to them they may be coming along better than the expected Quote Link to post
Guest pip Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Thanks mate thats right a spare collar should be affordable anyhow,sold Quote Link to post
Guest ripstop Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Thanks mate thats right a spare collar should be affordable anyhow,sold AYE PIP THATS RIGHT, WHEN I GOT MINE LAST YEAR THEY SAID IT WOULDNT BE TILL NEXT SEASON, HOPEFULLY A BIT SMALLER, BUT COMPATIBLE WITH THE PIEPS BOX, ID USED THE MK 3 AND WAS 4 HALF FOOT OUT, AND NEARLY LOST MY OLDEST TERRIER, HE GOT OUT LUCKY BUT TOOK 3 WEEKS TO PULL ROUND, YOURE RIGHT TO GET THE B AND FLINT Quote Link to post
Rabbit Hunter 6,613 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 alright pip mate... from what i hear they are bringing a new smaller one out that is rechargeable...ive never had any problems with the big one though so dont see the reason behind making it smaller?? Quote Link to post
Guest coney catcher99 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 its being tested now before its put on the market Quote Link to post
JODYFOXHUNTER 0 Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 The most expensive part of the BF kit is the box anyway, so when they release the new one you wont be forking out 300 bar again.... their existing collar is 70 quid on its own, so even if their replacment is slightly dearer its still a cheap sport (have you bought cartridges lately!!)... and like harddigging says its handy to have a spare especially if the new one is rechargeable.. you can garantee there's going to be a time when you charge it all night then relise in the morning you put the wrong plug in! My first season with the BF and they really are as good as people say.... Jody Quote Link to post
alimac 882 Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 spoke to them the other day, they said it needs testing on 800 digs before they would commit to putting it on the market Quote Link to post
Bryan 1,362 Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 PIP the other option is get the box yourself at http://www.thegearshack.com/product_info.php?products_id=103 then you can either get a collar from B+F, or if your looking for a smaller collar get one from http://www.jagdhunde.de/shop/product_info....mp;cPath=46_117 getting your own box you'll have saved the price of the new smaller B+F collar when it comes out.
