Anti-barking Collars - battery, bark collar


These batteries arrived to me dead. Neither from the pack work. I see that several people have had the same problem. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!!! Amazon's policy of no returns on batteries means you are out of luck! Total waste of my money! I even paid for rush shipping, so I am out even more. Lowes and Home Depot carry these batteries. The ones I bought from Lowes worked perfectly. PetSafe 6-Volt Lithium Battery (2 Batteries per Pack)

Amazon shows the wrong battery for the Bark collar we ordered and now we are stuck with the wrong Battery due to their mistake. I am one unhappy customer who has been ordering from Amazon for years and use their Credit card all the time. Now that will end and so will my feelings for Amazon as the women who handled my call were rude and did not seem to care. Amazon fix your discription for the Innotek Bark Collar as the 3 pack you show is the wrong

battery. It takes a 6Volt but in a Alkalinenot a Lithium 6volt.

My wife, myself, and our dog MOSES trust these batteries to keep him safe. They are overly expensive and that does not make sense with the low price of other batteries and that is why only 4 stars. We conserve by removing the batteries when we take off his collar at night and he is inside. When the batteries are in, the unit is in the ON mode and the they are constantly draining power just like a cell phone charger regardless of whether or not there is a shock, so we just remove them when not in use and they last much longer. Of course if he sees a rabbit then he goes brain numb and no battery will stop him.

Amazon had the best prices I found , particularly with free shipping when buying enough to get over the $25 threshold . Don't know how they made money because each package of 2 batteries was shipped separately .



But Petsafe seems to believe in milking the customers for unnecessarily expensive proprietary modules embedding the batteries in the waterproof cap and O ring .



I understand newer models from competitors are now available with rechargeable batteries and in fact greater range . I'd shop for them before getting collared ;) by the Petsafe system again .

I have two dogs wearing collars which require these batteries. Neither really activate them to much so power usage should be similar. In one collar the battery seems to last 5-6 months, the other is changed every two weeks. I would say good battery, one collar not functioning quite right. I was paying the lowest price I could find locally for batteries, to have found them for 60% less is great. It was like buying two packs locally and getting three packs free. Now I am good for almost six months as opposed to two. Additionally, I didn't have to pay any S&H which is a bonus. Definately bookmarked the purchase site in my favorites.

These batteries are required for the Petsafe wireless fence collar. They are very easy to change. They last about three months and when they need to be changed, the collar lights up. This is a very nice feature.

We have five dogs and three bark collars which use these batteries. I have never purchased from Amazon but from several different local stores and more than half the time the batteries are dead when I open the package or very soon after the are installed. The fault is with the manufacturer or their supply chain, not with Amazon. We also have a Trainwell collar which uses different batteries and have never had any trouble with those. - Dog Training - Wireless Fence - Battery - Bark Collar'
