Petsafe RFA-188 3 volt Lithium Battery September 27, 2009 J. Morris (Marathon, Florida) Great product and great price other internet sites were twice as much for the same product, but really what else can you say about a battery, to review? What I do what to review is Amazon.com *****Thank Goodness for Amazon.com because we can't find these where we live down in the Florida Keys. How did people shop down here before the internet? : )
CHANGE THE BATTERY YOURSELF FOR 3 BUCKS! June 5, 2009 pronoman 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
OK, so scrolling through the reviews here there are endless 1-star, "the battery dies in a month reviews". No kiddin! We saw it the first, second, third, fourth, etc... Time! I had a Petsafe collar with a red blinking light... I took out the Petsafe battery and figured out what needed to be done to replace it within a minute, so can you. When you remove the battery, the positive terminal (silver top of the battery with a "+" on it) will have a plastic ring around it that holds the battery in the holder. If you look carefully, you will see a couple of tabs and a seam that runs around the top lip. Just use a small screwdriver, or pocket knife to pry this ring off. It will break off...No matter - it was only glued on to begin with. Now get a pair of needle-nose pliers and grab gently along the side of the battery (where metal is exposed on the sides)... It may take a tiny bit of force to pull out, but it came right out for me. Now install a new Sanyo (or other brand) CR-1/3N battery (I picked one up at WalMart for $3.OO) by pressing it back in. You don't need to worry about gluing anything, it will hold just fine and will be that much easier to remove next month when it dies again. Now plug that joker back in and you're GTG. Petsafe makes a great product, but they should be ashamed of themselves for trying to sell this battery off as proprietary - BS!! Good Luck!
Petsafe Battery April 13, 2009 Stacey Kelley (Maine) Great delivery time and the batteries are the correct ones for my cats receiver collar. I can't seem to find this type of battery any place else so I'm very happy to know I can get them through Amazon.
Thank You
PetSafe Battery Module March 27, 2009 Eugene C. Deputy (Katy, TX) These battery modules are too expensive and do not last very long. I am figuring out a way to get a new battery in & out of the module so that I can save $20 a month for 2 dogs and won't have to order them everytime I need one. I would not buy another one of these bark collars because of the expensive special battery it requires. They sell a $3 product for $10 because it is the only one that will fit. I am looking for another brand of collar that utilizes a battery I can buy locally.
Cheap alternative replacement! November 2, 2008 L. Whitney 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Thanks W. Jiang for the idea! My husband just replaced the inner battery of this Petsafe RFA-188 battery with a Duracell 1/3N battery found in our small town local hardware store for $4.00! He said he broke off the seal holding the old 1/3N battery and popped in the new one without tape or glue. We love the Petsafe Little Dog Receiver but after reading all the reviews about how fast the batteries died, I was a little concerned. We turn the batteries (2 dog collars) off at night and back on during the day and the first collar lasted about 2 months. Replacing the battery every 2 months at $4.00 a pop is, in my opinion, no big deal. What freedom for us and our 2 dogs!
