What kind of battery? How large is the receiver? Is it too bulky to put on a dog's collar?

AAA and 2 Lithium dime size bateries 2,5"x2"x0.75" receiver No emiters are OK on collar. I can NOT recomend product. It is unreliable to actualy track and find emiters and whole process to do it is way too complicated! I am sorry but I think it is waste of time and money.

standard battery i believe; receiver can clip to belt- not too bulky; haven't tried it for dog, but should be able to clip on without a problem.

Common button battery. The receiver is smaller than a pack o cigarettes. It will be fine on a medium or large dog's collar.

It has a built in battery that last for a very long time. I have been more than pleased with the battery life on this collar.

The big unit takes 3 "C" batteries, and the "ringer button" takes one "AA" battery. I would NOT recommend this unit though. It worked only sporadically! Also, the "light" on the door ringer is very weak. I would not purchase this unit again.

No more than an inch. I put a magnet on the back to secure to my metal trailer door. It does use up the C batteries in the receiver fairly rapidly. If you have a lot of visitors, you might want to get a unit where the receiver plugs into the wall.

I forget but it wasn't costly and it's general battery. Please note that this has a shock on this collar. I was unaware of when I bought one. My dog was doing well with it but then he got shocked and it scared him. He started crying and the shocks got worse Never heard such agonizing sounds before

Once the dog gets the hang of it, I've found that I can set the collar to beep only (no shock) and it's still effective. I assume that extends the battery life because it doesn't have to charge / maintain the shock system. The real problem is dead batteries from a new package.

The transmitter takes a cylindrical shaped alkaline 23A 12V battery. It is very small: approximately 3/8" in diameter and 1" long. I have hardly used the unit since I bought it and, therefore, have not had to replace the battery but I assume that it is readily available.

I have a three collar system that I use several times a day. The transmitter holds a 9-volt battery and simply won't work when it's low. The collars don't have a "low battery warning" that I'm aware of. I charge mine once a week on a regular basis.

If the supplied collar is too big you can buy a collar that will fit your dog and attach the receiver to it by making two mounting holes.

The transmitter batteries last nearly 6 months if it's not placed on the higher output settings. The receiver (collar) battery duration is totally dependant on how often the dog challenges the restricted zone. My transmitter batteries are lasting about 3-4 months at this point.

the collar is a regular collar with the reciever attached to it. The reciever is a bit bulky, but my dogs wear them all the time unless we leave the premises. Three years going strong.

My two dogs have Dog Watch collars and the batteries are compatible. My Dog Watch installer was quite surprised that they were so reasonable! I'm sure you will be pleased!!!!!!!!

I would say so. You would just have to turn the transmitter down but the collar itself is big so not sure how big your dog is but that could be a factor.

I threw it away, if you get the chance to return this collar I would do so. you have to do something with the batteries and pushing a button...every single time. the batteries don't last long. Get a groovy pets controller.

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.

PetSafe sells the special batteries for the receiver. They last us about 2 months. Amazon can put you on a subscription for delivery of a new battery every 2 months.The transmitter ONLY plugs into a 110V AC wall outlet.

Sorry to hear this, I have had to contact PetSafe regarding the prongs being to long and the collar strap that holds the excess collar at the end and each time, customer service was most helpful. I believe they also said that since I had the collar less than a year, they would send me a new collar strap, they also sent me shorter prongs, both free of charge. I have never had a problem with the remote or the electronic part of the collar. Customer service was extremely helpful and very pleasent every time I have had a question and it appeared that Customer Satisfaction was their number one goal. Have you tried to contact them which resulted in poor results? I do not want you to think I have a half of a brain but was the plug inserted correctly? I charge both the collar and the remote at the same time. I wonder if the battery in the remote could be bad, it is rechargeable but who knows for how long its actual life is. Hope this is helpful but do try to contact Customer Service @ Toll Free: 1-800-941-4200, this # is from the Pet Safe web site," contact us". Hope you will have satisfactory result. I always have. Good luck and I would not mind hearing if they would help. Thank you
