sport dogs didn't hold up... got to the point they could not be turned on and off in less than 4 months.
dogtras hold up good and work correctly, but have longer prongs and can be hard on a dogs neck.
all in all the dogtra has been the best I have found out there. rechargeable is the best way to go.

I have the Sport Dog no bark 10R (the rechargeable one). I really liked it but the second one in just a little over a year just died yesterday. The button eventually pops out and when that happens the unit is shot you can't just get the button replaced. I'm probably going to try a Garmin bark collar next.

I havent tried the dogtra but the sportdog has been great. Four years running over multiple dogs. Charge maybe once a week when in use.
