"Hitch-Hiker" Garmin Back-up Transmitter

The "Hitch-Hiker" was developed to run on the same collar as the Garmin as a backup transmitter. This little transmitter is no more than the "Ole Reliable" beep-beep collar that you have known and trusted for years. It weighs in at 3.2 ounces, comes with changeable battery , changeable antenna, and under collar magnet. Powered by 1/2 AA 3.6 volt lithium battery that provides 600+ hours of run time and is easily changed and can be purchased at your hunting supply dealer. Comes in most frequencies 155-221 mhz.

"Hitch-Hiker" - one year warranty on transmitter and shipped to you.
$120

'Hitch-Hiker"- Look at these features and compare to other back-up transmitters:

1-Weight- Compare the 3.2 ounces weight of the HH to other back-up transmitters out.

2-Changeable battery- no sending back to builder when battery is depleted.

3-Changeable antenna- Should you have antenna issues like another pup chewing up antenna or antenna get broken somehow easily replaced by user.

4-Under Collar Magnet- No more rubber strips or o-rings to break and magnet falls out.

5-Easy Mounting- Held onto existing Garmin collar by 2 stainless steel screws making it easily removed and placed on different Garmin collar.

Matt
Thanks
You are correct , 75% of these sold have gone to big game hunters. Anyone regrdless of what type hunting they are doing and running both collars and ole traditional beep-beep along with the Garmin can benefit from the "Hitch-Hiker".

The Hitch-Hiker has a transmitter that has output power equal to most of the traditional tracking collars made today so the range will be similar to those. Range will be according to things such as conditions, terrain, and location of the dog to person doing the tracking.
