Product Description

The Wi Fi Waterproof Collar Transceiver is extremely small at 2.5"" in width, 1.5"" in tall and only 1.25"" deep. It only weighs 2.3 ounces, yet is packed with advanced electronics. The collar can be preset to one of 4 fixed static correction levels or a Progressive Correction setting. When approaching the preset boundary the collar emits a warning tone. If your dog continues to approach the boundary the preset correction level will be triggered. If you have selected setting 5 then Progressive Correction will be triggered. Progressive Correction starts at the lowest level. If your dog continues toward the boundary the internal microchip will continually increase the correction level based on the speed your dog is approaching the boundary and the distance your dog is away from the boundary. You can monitor this from your Smart Wi-Fi Base Station. In a multi-dog system, each collar can be independently programmed allowing you to customize your system for the temperament of each dog. Should your dog leave the Safe Zone the Correction will halt after 30 seconds. The Perimeter Wi-Fi Pet Fence includes a battery charger built into the Transmitter-Base ""Smart Station"" and two rechargeable batteries. Just put the fully charged battery in the collar and the drained one in the Smart Station. The Base Smart Station charges the battery while it monitors the charge level of the battery in the collar. When the battery in the collar gets low, take the fully charged battery from the Base Smart Station and replace the battery in the collar -- save money not buying replacement batteries. Battery recharge time normally takes 3 - 4 hours. When the battery in the Smart Base Station is fully recharged, it will act as a battery backup for 8 hours should the household power go out. This safety feature allows for continual safe operation and containment of your dog. NOTE: This product may not be used around a metal roof, large metal structures, or buried wires.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perimeter Wifi dog fence, August 18, 2009

I was really leary about buying this fence after reading the reviews, but I have had no problems with it. I have a metal garage door and cars in the driveway and they don't cause any problems. I put the base on top of the fridge so it would be up high. It only took 2 days to train our German shorthaired pointer. She is pretty hard headed and never has left, my only concern is what she will do if a rabbit runs out from under our storage shed. Hopefully she won't take off...I have the collar set on 4. I chose this system over the petsafe because it was recommended for dogs over 60 pounds.

The system kept our dog in the yard even when the rabbit from under our shed took off!

1.0 out of 5 stars Signal is lost on at least one side of the house no matter where the base is located., August 24, 2009

This review is from: Perimeter® Wire - Free Wifi Dog Fence (Misc.)

We recently received the Perimeter Wire - Free Wifi Dog Fence and discovered that there are coverage holes on two sides of our house where signal is lost. We cannot provide our dog with enough outdoor space (we're limited to under 60 feet) without losing reception (which prevents the product from working). We might try a competing product as we'd prefer a wireless fence system.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not work as advertised, August 2, 2009

I have tried repeatedly to make this work using many different locations. Have talked with their reps several times and they all say that there is interference so that there are areas that it will not cover. Station goes off when the collar is off the dog and within 10ft of the base station. The receiver is not accurate so that in one spot where we set the perimeter one day it will go off 10 ft before the flag. The next time it will not go off until 25ft past the flag. Also, once it goes off and the dog moves back inside the perimeter it continues to beep. Impossible to train a dog under these conditions. If you have a garage with a metal door or a car in it the WiFi will not pass and the signal will be lost

Save your money. Does not work.
