mashedup 0 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Im looking @ a Deben Ferret Finder MK3 on ebay; Item number: 110316963300 Is this the newest version and can anyone tell me how many collars it can be used with. Also its for sale for £125 is that a good deal? Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 It says in the instuctions that you can use four collars with the one locator, jus paid £180 for mine the other day with two collars, hope this helps. Quote Link to post
Cornio 0 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 The MK3M is the newest not the MK3. Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 That's the one I bought, the MK3M with the magnetic switch collars. Quote Link to post
stubby 175 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 the only difference between a mk3m and a mk3, are the collars, the locator itself is the same in both, any number of collars can be used with either, no need to stop at 4, although have thought you wouldent want more than 4 down at a time, if ferreting on your own, I got my mk3 with one collar, for £127 inc free postage, from e bay, so if they are offering the same, I'd say go for it Quote Link to post
csme55ex 2 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 iv bidded on that for £110 whats the diffence between the collars then ? Quote Link to post
Cornio 0 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 (edited) The MK3M 's have a magnetic switch to turn them on and off. You can either hold the receiver box up to them for 1 second or there's a little magnet on a key ring which you can use. It's a lot less fiddly when they're attached to a ferret.

The MK3M collar offers an advantage over the MK3 with regards to the switching, so I'll say 'yes'. There shouldn't be any difference in their locating abilities though. Quote Link to post
