Will the transmitter stay turned on for a long period of time (so that I can discipline my dog for occasional bad behaviors)?

Yes it stays charged for around 5 full days and then you need to charge it for a few hours. I'm really happy with this product very good value and quality.
165571
Yes for sure. The collar needs to be recharged every few days, we have gone as long as a week and it still works.
165572
Absolutely, but the collar must be charged ever 1 or 2 days. Also, we found that vibrate alone was sufficient for our very unruly beagle.

There is no on/off. The collar stays charged for a couple of days before we recharge. The vibrate works for us in correcting bad behavior. Although we have had to resort to the minimum "zap" on a couple of occasions.

Yes. From my experience, the unit will last around 3 days between charges. The collar goes into a sleep mode when the dog is sleeping and wakes again when there is movement. We charge ours every other night. Hope this helps.

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.

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.

Yes! Set it for 1 min. When it goes off, it automatically resets back to 1 min.

I don't know if it will work inside....I have it outside and never had any problems with the transmitter....the problems are with the collar...they don't work as good..

Kay i think it will stop because the collar do the signal when my dog is howling. I put it in myself and bark and I received the signal.

Nope, not automatically. You don't really want it to power off automatically because you wouldn't want it to just turn off without warning. It is weatherproof with an on/off button and blinking LED (green okay/red needs to be charged). When you charge the collar unit, you also charge the transmitter at the same time.

It depends on how many times you use it. With my Shepherd I only had to use the shock feature a couple of times. After that I set the unit for vibrate. Now, when the collar vibrates she stops whatever behavior she is doing immediately. Generally, using the collar a few times a day, the collar's charge lasts for a few weeks.

No, the transmitter does not turn off. I ended up taking the battery out each time...such a pain.

I am generally charging once a week, trying to watch for flashing of the signal as it says in the manual. If you are like me you are using the stimulation frequently. My 11 month old Lab is very hard headed. Of the 7 levels, I do not get response in a potential situation below 6. I agree with others to be sure and turn the collar unit off after each use. Wish you the best!

I'm pretty sure the stubborn collar will work with the transmitter you already have. But, especially since your Shepard is a puppy, I would recommend just using a standard collar. I have a full grown pit bull and he stays in my fence using the standard collar.

BI do not know if the transmitter is waterproof, but if you call Dogtra on Monday they will tell you if it is waterproof. Battery is good for approx. 2 yrs...

Yes. I have two dogs. I numbered their collars 1 & 2 so I wouldn't get confused. Just set your transmitter to the number of the dog who is misbehaving and then push one of the 3 buttons. When I first got the dog trainer I accidentally shocked the wrong dog. He wouldn't have anything to do with me for awhile. Lol. The Aetertek works wonders. My dogs would bark at the neighbors every single time they would see them coming and going. It drove us all nuts. Now I can be out in the yard with my dogs and it's peaceful. No more senseless barking. I hope I helped.

No but unless you are pushing a button the transmitter is off. If you are asking if you can turn the collar off from the transtransmitter (to make the battery last longer) the answer is no.

The batteries can last for several hours of repeated use but you need to make sure to power both the transmitter and receiver off when you are done. They do not automatically turn off and you will drain the batteries all the way down.

I train my dog to heal when I press the vibrating function. I call his name as I press it, and he comes right back to me. I only use the shock feature if he dosent respond to the vibrations (when he sees a squirrel and starts to bolt into the street). And he will always respond to the shock. Now that I have had it for a while I don't even have to turn it on. Once I put the collar on my dog he is on his best behavior.

Yes the transmitter will control up to four different collars. We have had good luck with ours.
