This review is from: Lentek PB1TC Pet Boundary Additional Transmitter (Kitchen)

It's a proximity device that is composed of a base unit and a fob to attach to the pet's collar. The base unit is purported to emit an ultrasonic sound when a pet wearing the fob gets within 10 feet. It has a switch that toggles to "cat" or "dog."
My experience:
1. Its proximity sensor is sporadic at best.
2. The base unit's reception is hindered by doors and fluorescent lights. Its range is not adjustable.
3. The ultrasonic sound is perceptible throughout the house, and despite the "cat/dog" switch, is ALWAYS heard by dogs. Not nice at all.
4. The fobs require nickel-sized computer-type batteries that require bi-weekly replacement to the tune of 4 smackers per.
5. The technical support is paltry. In fact, they ditched two of my four calls!
