Splitter cables for older units
It doesn’t come with a splitter. Depending on your unit you’ll need the 5-5 splitter or the 5-3 splitter. The 5-3 is for older serial numbers, so check the label or ask us.
Charging tips
Charge somewhere cool and dry, not on the dashboard or next to a heater. Wipe the charging port dry before you plug in if the unit’s been in water, and push the rubber cap back in as soon as you unplug. Your model’s manual on Dogtra’s website has the exact charging times and light codes.
Is it the charger or the battery?
Chargers fail more often than people think, usually at the cable where it bends near the plug. If wiggling the cable makes the light flicker, that’s your answer.
A spare for the truck
A spare charger in the travel bag means a forgotten plug doesn’t end a hunting trip. It’s one of the cheapest bits of insurance in the kit.
Looking after the charging port
Check the charging port now and then with a torch. Green or white crust on the pins means moisture has been getting in. A dry toothbrush usually cleans it up. Then make sure the rubber cap seals properly, and replace it if it doesn’t.
Off-season storage
Store chargers with the units they belong to, ideally in the original case or a labelled bag. If you own several Dogtra systems, a strip of tape with the model name on each charger saves a lot of guessing later.
Why a genuine charger
We only sell genuine Dogtra chargers. The voltage, current and plug match what your unit was designed for. A charger that’s close but not right can charge slowly, run hot or never fully charge the battery.
