Durable and Waterproof Tracking System!
The Garmin Alpha 100 with TT15 is a must have for hunters that use dogs. The Alpha handheld device is built with a rugged water proof design, and boasts a 3” color touch screen display that will show pre-loaded 100k US topo maps so you always know where you are. A compact design makes the Alpha 100 simple and comfortable for one hand operation. 18 levels of momentary and continuous simulation provides audible and vibe commands to help train your dog as well.
With the ability to track up to 20 dogs or fellow hunters between 4- 9 miles away (depending on collar selected), you can see on the Alpha display just where everyone is not only to help you navigate to them or near them, but also as a safety feature. See exact locations as often as every 2.5 seconds or manually adjust your notifications to alert you less frequently of where your dogs or hunting buddies are. Depending on the user specified update rates, your Alpha 100 with Standard TT15 Collar battery can last anywhere between 20-40 hours while the TT15 Mini Battery can last 16-30 Hours. The Alpha 100 is so intuitive that when the battery level gets to about 25 percent, it will automatically put itself into a rescue mode which slows down the update rate from about every 2.5 seconds to every 2 minutes, offering more time to locate your hunting crew or your dogs.
Garmin now offers the TT15 Collar in both Standard and Mini Sizes. Designed to not only track your four legged friend but also assist in training him or her. A top mounted high sensitivity GPS/GLONASS receiver allows you to know exactly where your dog is located when paired with the Alpha 100. Rugged and water resistant to 10M the Standard TT15 will track your dog up to 9 miles away, Mini up to 4 Miles and also allow you to train your dog via predetermined stimulation levels from 1-6 or linear stimulation with progressive changes ranging from level 1 to 18. Battery life ranges from 20-40 hours depending on tracking levels being used and can even be switched to rescue mode to prolong the battery. Plus, once it reaches just 25% battery life the TT 15 will automatically slow the refresh rate from once every 2.5 seconds to once every two minutes allowing you extra time to locate your dog.
Garmin’s TT 15 Mini 3/4" Collar Strap weighs 7.5oz (Transmitter, Antenna & Collar) and can be used on a smaller breed dog with a 9.5 inch neck circumference making it perfect for Beagles and the smaller terrier breeds. Whereas the Standard TT15 with 1" Collar Strap weighs 10oz (Transmitter, Antenna & Collar)is designed for Dogs with a Minimum Neck circumfrence of 9.5".
From a mapping standpoint, simply download the Basecamp software from Garmin and utilize the Basestation software which virtually turns your laptop into a mapping station so you can see a bigger picture of where everyone is. View real time information which makes for a great feature for search and rescue, or simply seeing where you’re dogs are traveling. The built in GPS/GLONASS receivers will pick up under heavy canopies so there is little to no delay in obtaining location information. The Alpha 100 With TT15 is the perfect choice for any hunter or dog trainer.
