[huckelberry 114]

what type of collar is used with that unit?

[Ferretman65 2,123]

I don't know mate to be fair a old ferreting mate gave it to me 

[The one 8,396]

The collar is maybe 3 times the size of a current mk1 it was charged with a battery and worked till the charge ran out , Ive  dug mine out i will post a couple of picts tommorrow

Thats the box the bleeper came in how it was packed then you can see how they recharged the collar its maybe double the size of the mk1 collar so if a mk4 collars comes out its going to be a lot smaller as there getting smaller every time a new one comes out ?>
