The minis will feature a sleep/wake mode. What's it do? It saves your battery if you are traveling between hunting spots. Put the collar to sleep, then when you are ready, wake the collar up (it will take between 35-40 seconds for the Handheld to re-acquire the collar). The dog does not have to be at your feet to do this (but, it does have to be within range). Because the mini battery life is less than the battery life on the standard TT 15 / T 5, this sleep/wake mode allows you to save battery without having to remove the collar to turn it off. (**Note...make sure your collar always has a full charge before you go to the field and make sure you turn it off to charge it when you're done in the field.**)
Screen that allows you to access the collar sleep/wake mode (access it from the dog info screen, select the dog, then select the 3 bars at the bottom):
What it looks like on the dog info screen when you put the collar to sleep: (notice the update rate says SLEEP MODE)
Just one more feature to make your Mini T 5 or Mini TT 15 meet your needs in the field. More fun...less hassle!
