Duluthian Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 Does any one have any information on replacing the rechargeable batteries in an older collar and transmitter? I have an old 200 lite that the batteries are dead on. Specifically I'm trying to find out how to open the old metal style collar housing. I hope that if I can get it open a battery supply store could rebuild the packs with new batteries. The only other option I know of is to send it to the collar clinic in MI and pay premium to have them do it. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

gundy89 Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 Setterguy,My neighbor gave me an old tritronics - "Flyway Special" The catch is, he lost the receiver in a corn field. Do you know where I can find a replacement. Is it even worth replacing? Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setterguy Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Does the collar have a number on it anywhere? If it does they can look back and find the frequency used for that collar and program a transmitter for it. I have an email in on the first question and am just waiting to find out. After rereading the post, I have one question. Did he lose the collar or the transmitter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gundy89 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 He lost the transmitter. I have it at home and will see if I can locate that serial number. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duluthian Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 Just an update I did get into the collar this weekend. I'm taking the battery packs over a battery specialty store to have them rebuilt. I will post again with the end result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
