I’ve had my 1825 for 6 years and have had it take unplanned muddy swims, dropped on the wet floor of a boat and subjected to below freezing late goose season hunts and it has always come out swinging. I have the upmost confidence in this unit and find the multi dog switch very useful when training with multiple dogs and operating launchers from the transmitter and the dog. Thanks SportDOG for the rugged tools we hunters and trainers need.
