Revainrating 3 out of 5

Efficient, highly visible, versatile but needs a better plug or latch

Product comes with LED dog collar (made of silicone which is a soft flexible plastic according to instructions), screwdriver, 2 extra screws and a USB -Cable (Micro USB to Standard USB). In the photos, the red button toggles the collar's LED light on and off, constant or flashing light, and various color options (my photos show a multi-colored option, but you can also choose from multiple options of the same color). The black gasket hides the micro USB port for charging. When the device is charging, the main body will light up red during charging and green when charging is complete. The first charge was fairly quick, maybe 15 minutes for a full charge (I'm assuming the device arrived partially charged). The instructions state that it takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the device (probably from a fully discharged device) and takes 6 hours (flashing) or 4 hours (steady on). The collar is 26 inches long and will need to be trimmed. (unless your dog has a giant neck) with regular scissors. Before cutting, remove the screw and connector part and save for later. The cutting process is easy but make sure you don't cut it too short as once cut you can't lengthen it (but if you cut too little you can always cut more) (one of my photos shows a LED -Tie in cropped collar). I would prefer a collar with a buckle and holes (like a belt) or a buckle that allows it to be adjusted (like a nylon strap on a helmet or backpack). Instead, it is an arrangement by size. After you cut the cuff, reattach the fitting and replace the screw (and if you remove the screw, two extra screws are included with the device). The screw needs to be inserted very straight to make a good connection which is not easy but seems to hold. A single screw keeps the connector attached to the flexible strap (I'm not sure the strap stays attached to the connector for very long, but it seems to hold up). The instructions say you should not attach a leash to it. Collar; This collar is not strong enough to withstand pulling on the leash, it is for lighting purposes only. My photos show the illumination of the collar at night. The collar is very bright and noticeable but doesn't bother my dog or me. I find the end of the collar connector to be easy to insert into the main unit but difficult to remove (eventually I can separate the ends but it's not as easy as it should be). This removal step is necessary every time you remove the collar from your dog, so this step really should be easier than it really is. Pros: 1. Very bright and visible from afar but not too bright to bother my dog.2. Light weight, which is good if the dog already has a separate, regular collar around its neck.3. Fast charging and long battery life.3. Button control and charging port are intuitive and easy to use.4. The instructions are clear and simple. Disadvantages: 1. The collar cannot be adjusted without cutting it. A buckle or nylon strap that allows you to shorten or lengthen it as you need, which can be used for different dogs and allows for adjustment.2. Not sure how long the flexible collar and fit will stay together. 2. The connector does not easily slide out of the main body, which is necessary to remove the collar from the dog. I would have liked a more convenient connection.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
