Question 1

can you purchase additional links... my dog's neck is 24" in circumference

Accepted Answer

Yes you can.  As a matter of fact I will be buying links again soon.  .  They can generally be purchased via Amazon.  They come 2/pack and cost between  $12-14  or so.

Question 2

What kind of warranty for it?

Accepted Answer

Look at the specs.........

We ve had ours for over a year or so.... No issues

Question 3

How long are the prongs?

Accepted Answer

Slightly less than 1/2 an inch
Works well, but I must return because anything with prongs my husband thinks hurts the dog. My dogs are Arctic breed Samoyeds and my friend's dog is a very short haired slender dog and she trained extremely well with it, too. My husband will barely reprimand a dog, either. Great collar. Hope this helps.

Question 4

How does this collar go on? i do not like our current hs prong collar because the only way to on/off is by opening the prongs. difficult to do.

Accepted Answer

Hi there.  This Neck Tech model has the Martingale Chain (you can see this Chain in the image).  Part of the Martingale Chain assembly is a "scissor clip" --- this clip opens and closes the Chain so you can place the Collar AROUND the your dog's neck, then you close the collar with the Clip.  KIndly note that this collar is Stainless Steel, not chrome plated steel, therefore this Collar is of higher quality and possesses a higher tensile strength than chrome plated steel.

Also, this Amazon Listing DID have a very thorough list of bullet points and product description that was very helpful in answering questions, but there seems to be an error in that information now (as of today, August 15, 2018).  So, I am including in this comment the Herm Sprenger description for this Neck Tech Model.  I hope you find this information helpful:

1.) Herm Sprenger Model 50153-19 | Neck Tech Collar | Stainless Steel | Scissor Snap Clip.
2.) Each prong link element is stamped from solid coiled steel stock | Rounded and polished prong link elements | Side snap clip.
3.) Herm Sprenger designed this model to offer a subtle communication through the collar elements | The Prong link element is designed to imitate the shape of dog teeth, providing a more gentle "mother" influence as compared to a conventional prong training collar | Appropriate for a dog needing a gentle or moderate training communication or for a dog that has graduated from prong collar training and is needing only subtle communication through the collar.
4.) Manufacturer factory assembled size fits neck size up to approximately 16 to 18 inches depending on fur type and fur depth. Proper fit is achieved by adding or removing links | Extra links available in listings.
5.) Herm Sprenger authenticity is verified by the embossed log on the center plate, specific rings, and junction components.
6.) Herm Sprenger is one of the leading manufacturers of metal products for equestrian, dog sport, and boat fittings for over 140 years. Known for high quality innovation, Sprenger is a family-run company in Iserlohn, Germany.
7.) Herm Sprenger collars are made in metric measurements, then converted to rounded-up inches for the U.S. market. 
8.) Important!  KEEP YOUR COLLAR BALANCED: When adding and removing prong links, remember to keep the same number of prong links affixed on each side of the center plate. If the collar fitting requires an odd number of prong links, then make sure one side of the center plate has only one more prong link than the other side. Your goal is to ensure the center plate stays at the front of the dog's neck above the trachea
9.) Training collars are intended for supervised training sessions when the handler is communicating a desired behavior. All users of training devices should be informed and understand how to use training devices. Do not leave a dog unsupervised or alone in a training device and do not leave training devices on a dog full time. Do not use retractable leash devices or elastic tension leads with a training collar. Do not use training collars on dogs younger than 6 months.
10.) Before use, wash metal collars in warm, mild soapy water to minimize fur discoloration.
