Is there a lower voltage option for people with small dogs?

There is no switch to change the voltage. It is a direct current source. I have a different one on my pasture fences that is alternating current. Both deliver 12 volts. Maybe look for one specifically for dogs. The reality is, they touch it once and they never touch it again. Horses as well.

You will want to ck with fi-shock website & compare models. There are different voltages.

To contain dogs, we recommend approximately 1,000 volts on the fence. With small animals, we recommend a pulsating charger such as the Fi-Shock EAC5A-FS Medium Duty Fence Energizer Please keep in mind that electric fences are not recommended for dogs under 15 lbs.

A small dog would fit on it. Just make sure the cord is covered or that the dog or cat would not chew on the electric cord.

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.

It is not low voltage. I already had the post, so I can't answer that portion of your question.

All those that I have seen are meant for very low voltage, not what you are thinking of using it for.

Hey Kiwi guy you can get a friend electrician to step down power for you, make a dedicated outlet its easy. from a aussie electrician in NYC

Maybe install a WebControl device to remotely control the power to this rex dog

Yes, one is the lowest (conversely 7 is the highest) also, make sure that you adjust the prongs so that they actually make contact with skin, not just fur (we have a border collie who we thought was impenetrable until we realized it was only hitting fur).

It will help. I had a German shepherd and worked well for her. Start off on a low setting and work up. I never had to get high on the voltage with her. I used it more for the barking purposes. If. You train and are consistent the puppy will learn.

You know my dogs went thew streams here and I never had any problem with them not working but I will say get a battery changing regement in place because if I remeber right their can be accadentail discarges as they get low and water is an excellent conductor to excellence what I did because I had three dogs as I look for one that had two collars and then bought the third collarbut it wasn't cheap and neither was the batteries and if your power goes off to the main unit take the collars off the dogs as it might reset the boundaries and shock dogs accidentally I found that out the hard way

Suggestion for you: Buy rope lights that are 12 Volt, then you can use the voltage reducer.

you can purchase an optional AC-DC adapter.it should have an output of three volts with the center negative, and not less than 100mA

No; find no battery well in the unit; uses step-down transformer for 120V to 9VDC 2.5A minimum

There is a place on the transmitter for a 4.5vdc adapter. Maybe Radio shack has one.

Yes, Set it to ac or dc depending on your fence converter. probably ac. 2 alternatives are 1. use the back of your hand. 2. pee on the fence and see if your ding-a-ling gets a good shock.

Yes. There is a setting dial that you can adjust for smaller or larger animals... or younger children.

I'm no GC but I think low voltage is fine so I'd say yes. I'd ask a pro though.
