I haven't looked all that hard, but also haven't noticed them anywhere I travel on the internet and haven't heard any discussions here? Has anyone seen them? I'm going to be in the market for a new collar here shortly and would rather wait to get the new stuff if it's good. Thanks.

Hey kristie,

I saw one about a week ago, I train with a TT rep and he has one. Don't know if they are on the open market yet. They are pretty nice, the transmitter is slightly smaller and lighter. The collatr it self is a little bit smaller as well. Best feature and improvement as I see it though is that the collar and transmitter have a charging cradle and can both go from dead to full charge in 2 hours. They have also changed the batteries as well so you can put both on the charger everyday when you get back in and never end up training and have your collar die part way through the day. I may see him training today, I will ask him when/if they are going on the market. Should be anytime I think.

Thanks, Kevin. I thought the ad said June 2005, so I've been looking for them. If you find out, that would be great. Thanks!

Hey Kristie,

Trained with him on Sunday and he said that the release date has been pushed back to early August. I was looking at his again on the week end, they are nice. Wish my collar would quit so I could justify a new one.
All the G2 collars will also carry the same price tag as the current pro series collars so I am told.

Kevin,
Could you ask him if the batteries last as long as the ones on the XLS models? And if they'll be offering a car charger also? I also here they're supposed to be waterproof. Is submersible in that equation also? I've been asking around and can't seem to get any answers to these questions.
Thanks.

Not sure about how long they will hold a charge, but since you can put it back in the cradle every night if you want it doesn't matter as much. I think I heard him mention that they will be selling an adapter for charging in the car, I will ask him this week.

It will be late summer or early fall befor you can get your hands on one I think. Not sure if I would want one of the first few off the line anyway. Give them a few months to work the bugs out.
