Title: Garmin collar Post by: 7Mhunter on May 08, 2014, 09:24:06 am Had one i used coon hunting the night before it broke school 30 working fine got home it still had a full battery. Never got wet that night. Turned it off went and put it up got it out the next morning. Went hog hunting put it on the dog turned it on and it connected. Pulled away from the truck with the dog still on the box. Now it wont turn on or light up on charge. Is it worth buying a new battery?

It still worked, I just couldn't tell if it was on/off and whether it was taking a charge. I had to use my handheld unit to tell if it was on and whether or not it took the charge. You may want to see if your handheld will pick it up.

I have no clue whats wrong with it. If it worked we would have 8 collars but it's not hurting me none with it being broke but would love to find out what happend. All we did was pull away from the truck lost communication with the dog and he was on the box. Will not light up or connect to garmin.
