Garmin ALPHA LTE collar Attachment

[LC Smith]

Does anyone use this unit? I am looking for experience and how accurate it is, etc. I have a coworker that uses the FI Collar for tracking and I ran across the Garmin unit. It requires a subscription service for the LTE tracking capability. I like the Garmin products and have trust in them, but I am not sure if it is better than the FI, etc.

I do not but what I can say is if it works anywhere near as well as the other Garmin products you will be happy with it. I can’t imagine Garmin would release a sub par unit

No I don’t have that collar. I bought a Garmin TT 25 and bought a pro 500 handheld device to pair it with. This system connects to satellites so no subscription needed. I thought maybe I would be out of cell service sometime but that would probably never happen. My collar was terrific. My dog usually stays close but a couple of times in South Dakota last fall I lost sight of her. I looked at my handheld and it showed where she was and which way she was going. I’m sure you’ll like the Alpha too.

Thanks. I am running the TT25 and PRO550+ as well for my training and hunting rig. This device is more of the everyday tracking that has multiple capabilities for tracking with GPS and cell, etc.
