When you say 1000 ft does that mean 1000 feet of wire distance or 1000 ft from the transmitter in any direction?? What happens if I need to cover a larger distance? Thanks for the vid!
@bleepinjeep A recent upgrade to the locator now allows location out as far as 3000' in a single direction. Considering you can locate in both directions from the source that would effectively cover up to 6000 feet of wire. Also because the unit is completely self contained you can actually take it out along the perimeter and cut into your wire and connect it mid way around your system if necessary.
@doctordennish cool thanks! I did some testing with a meter and it looks like my wire is not broken but just corroded somewhere (I found a lot of resistance in the wire). Will this locator help to find that?? The fence still works a bit at about 6 inches no matter what setting I have it on but my dogs neck is about a foot off the ground! Thanks for the help!

@bleepinjeep You have a what is commonly referred to as a "partial" break. Yes this will locate it. Please call me with any additional questions.
