Question 1

Trying to choose between this one and the garmin delta sport xc. how much better is this remote over the other remote? thank you.

Accepted Answer

I can't speak to which is "better" because I didn't purchase the sport xc, so I have nothing to compare it to. There is no led window in the one I purchased but quite frankly you don't need it. The toggle on the top of pro makes it easy to remember which dog has which setting, top (dog 1), middle (dog 2), bottom (dog 3) and we do have three dogs. The intensity wheel is easily increased to whatever level is necessary to get their attention, the "number" isn't really that important. When they are misbehaving, which isn't very often now that they have been taught where the boundary's are, it is easy to feel the toggle switch. That way I don't have to take my eyes off of the dogs and look at a screen. I can not speak highly enough about how this device has simplified our life. My daughter has a dog that likes to play bite as they are running around with high energy. I have been able to use a collar to teach him how to play acceptably and avoid dog fights from 100 yds away. It doesn't get any better than that!

Question 2

Is the bark limiter stimulation automated or does is always require a manual button press? also, can dog a's barking activate dog b's stimulation?

Accepted Answer

Tri-tronics bark collars don't use a microphone to determine when a dog barks.  They use vibrations sensed by the collar against the neck.  Therefore dog A will NOT receive stimulation if dog B, standing beside him, barks.

Question 3

will this fit on a 18 lbs Dachshund

Accepted Answer

I personally don’t agree with any answers in these Q&A questions that would suggests there isn’t a size of dog this should be used on. This is one of the largest training collar receivers I’ve ever seen. It’s also not light competitively either. Despite how great it and the features may be I would not use this in a dog under 30lbs. The collar is designed to go to a very small circumference but that’s not in any way inductive of the size of dog that should use this. This is designed fir hunting dogs the typical breed of which aren’t under 30 lbs.

Question 4

Why does this product only has  "10" levels of stimulation and others have "100"?

Accepted Answer

It's basically the same.... It just compiles the 100 levels into 10.   1=1-10, 2=11-20, etc....   You really only need 1-3 in my opinion.  If training correctly, you will rarely even use the last option, if ever.
