If you take the rubber grommet off, you will find that the light has 2 loop like handles. Take a blank name take and pass this thru each one and double them over so both holes in the plate match up. You can now rivet them to what ever collar you wish to.

That's a pretty good idea JTWSR, might have to try it. I did think of another way that's I'm going to try. I'm going to take those heavy duty plastic ties and rope them through the loops and then lock them into the collar buckle.

I put a couple loops of electrical tape around just the very end and trimmed what I didn't need on there off. Mine have held up for almost a year.

I had the same problem with mine, they lasted about 8 mnths. I've seen the lighted Marshals, I have a lighted collar i'm trying and I still like my Trackers the best, I just try to be careful i'm not rough on them to make them break quicker.
Theres some good ideas on here of how to keep them on.

go to your local saddle and tack shop and get D-rings, take the rubber part off and rivit the D-rings to the light. then you can slide it on and off the collar pretty eaisly. they make a few different styles of D-rings look for the ones that slide right on a collar strap. there kind of rectangle.

tracker light

You can buy from NITE LIGHT ,page 56.Dog-trader nameplates that slide right over your collar. You do not need the nameplates, just the too ends. Poprivet your lights to it.

lights

I have had mine on for 7 months. No problems.

Are you putting them on a 1" collar?

I love these little lights .
