How long do the collars and transmitter hold a charge? (assuming a good battery and full charge)

I've kept them on both my dogs for 12 hours and they still work well. I always plug them in at night so I'm not sure how long they last. I know that even when they are immersed in water, my dogs swim, they still hold the charge.

I never charge mine unless it's blinking red or yellow.. I take them off every night and turn them off, so they are on 12-16 hours a day.. and it lasts 3 days

depends on how much you use them. If you are doing training for an hour or more they will only stay charged about 30 hours. If they are on the dog and the dog is pretty much trained but you have the collar for back up then they will hold a charge for 3 days.

I don't have the exact data on that. They last at least 24 hrs. I hunted one cold day for 6 hrs and forgot to shut off. The next day I was going for a hike and put the collar that was blinking low charge on and it still worked. The other that was off still had a great charge. Just don't leave in out in vehicles in extreme cold weather for weeks and expect to work...but they last a few days on a full overnight charge!

I cannot answer that fully. I have not left them on long enough for them to lose charge. I have the manual at home. So I would guestimate 15 hrs? Maybe more, maybe less. Best bet is the manual, what it says, but if you don'g actively correct them for a long period I would think it would hold charge a little longer

The battery is rechargeable, it comes with the collar. As far a replacing a defective battery, I am not certain. Hope this helps.

I have had no issues with the battery. I use my Einstein collar 7 days a week, most days the battery is on for 15 hours, even after using the light feature the battery hasn't shown any sign of dieing out. I have run this collar side by side with other collars and have no doubt Einstein makes the best e- collars.

In my experience, a fully charged battery lasts 7 to 8 hours, depending on how loud you have it and how far from the base station it is.

The remote batteries last a long time because it goes into sleep mode of not used. The batteries in the collar on the other hand last about 2-3 weeks if on continuously. It feels like we have to change these a lot, but we leave the collar on all the time unless our dog is in his kennel.

I leave my collar on at all times since my boy is in and out all day long. The battery lasts 2-3 months with constant use.

This unit is non rechargeable. Uses batteries in both remote and collar. Just FYI, battery life seemed very good. I only needed to replace them once in 5-6 months!

The batteries it comes with vary (I bought 7 collars). I would guess on the low end 15 hours and double that if you get the better battery pack. There's no way to tell which one you'll get.

The batteries are integrated into the unit and yes it comes with a charger that can both charge the transmitter and collar at the same time.

My dog has gone in and out of a lake with it on, and it still works the same as when it was new. I would say "yes" to your question.I charge it every couple of days. The collar, itself, doesn't tell you when it is about ready to go out, but the control does have a gauge, so you know when it is time to plug it in again.

Thank you for your question! Typically these types of batteries last about 3-5 years when charged properly. To replace a battery, you would need a replacement receiver collar. Please know that these products are backed by a 1 year limited manufacturer's warranty, and we do offer replacement options even beyond that initial warrantied period. If you need assistance with your system, please contact our Customer Care Center at 1-800-732-2677.

The collar has an attached rechargeable battery. The wall charger charges both the remote and the collar at the same time. Just remember to re pair the collar and remote after each charge by simply touching the red dot on the collar to the red dot on the remote. The collar holds a charge for days at a time and blinks red when it needs to be charged.

I have had my collar since May and I have not had to replace the battery this far. It take a small battery 4LR44 6V. It only uses one. I don't know how much they cost. I don't use my collar all the time I take it off of her to give her a break. She needs to bark some, like when a strange car or dog comes into my yard.

Yes....both the transmitter and collar have rechargeable batteries. It comes with a charging unit. Collar should only be "on" dog or no more than 8 hours because of prongs, even though loosely attached. My dog's collar lasts for 3-4 days before needing charging. Really glad I bought this. I first bought a "cheapo" unit.......didn't hold up at all!

Brand new you can get about 2 days but then that depends on how often used.We just plug in at night . This is the second double we have had. Our dogs go swimming a lot and one of the collars got wet one 2 many times lasted about five years with one set of replacement batteries.Here is a tip we did learn to use black electric tape to cover the charge plug on the collars to make sure it stays closed while the dogs are swimming.

I un-clip the transmitter after every use. So far I have been using for 3 months 3-4 times a week for 30-50 min per time and I am still on the original battery.
