Mine is a light grey almost cuboid shape which slides apart to reveal the battery compartment. Edited to add that I've had a look on t'internet and I think mine is the mark 2. Sorry whitefeet. If that one is working and you want to sale it let me know mate.. I've got a couple of the old mk2 they're still OK.. Quote Link to post

Is there a 3 on the back of it? Quote Link to post
diggermad 154 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Hi it will tell you on the back of the collar if it's a MK2 or MK3 cheers Quote Link to post
Neal 1,864 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Thanks everyone. I'll check again and then let whitefeet know. Quote Link to post
Neal 1,864 Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 Whitefeet, mine has a number three on the back of the grey box. The collar goes through slots at either end of the box and covers the box when it's being worn i.e. you see the collar rather than the box. When I looked online, all the mark three collars had a large black cylindrical box but mine is a completely different shape. I can't guarantee it works, as it's not been used for about ten years, but PM me your address if you'd like it for your daughter. 1 Quote Link to post

Collars for the for the Mk 2 ( first version of the Disco Carrot) transmitters are rectangular and made of black plastic with the sliding battery compartment lid. The first "Mk3" collars are the same but made of grey plastic. The most recent "Mk3" collars are the round magnetic - switch type . All three will work with the old grey boxes and Star Trek Carrot receivers. Left; Mk2. Right ; early Mk3. The only proviso is that the black Mk2 collar ticks faster and kills batteries a little bit faster than the others. Hope this helps 3 Quote Link to post
Neal 1,864 Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Thanks comanche. In that case I think I've got the early mk 3. 1 Quote Link to post
whitefeet4190 1,725 Posted February 25, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2023 Thank you Neal but I think I need the black round one, thank you for ur offer though Quote Link to post
Neal 1,864 Posted February 25, 2023 Report Share Posted February 25, 2023 You're welcome. I've been meaning to put it on ebay for years but keep putting it off in the hope that the rabbits will come back enough for me to need ferrets again. Lo and behold my kelpie bitch bushed out two from a huge bramble bank this morning. I think that's the first time she's seen rabbits other than when we go to Dartmoor. I continue to live in hope.
