Leuchtie Mini Light Collar

Leuchtie is an innovative, long-lasting and very easy-to-use LED light collar. Completely waterproof!

The Leuchtie Mini model, made for small dogs, has four bright LEDs that burn brightly and evenly (so no annoying flashing). Also popular with working dogs, the German-made light collar is very durable and completely waterproof. A clever automatic function, with which the light comes on when the collar is on the dog's neck (i.e. the battery part is down) but turns off automatically when the collar is removed.

Using the Leuchtie light collar

Using the light collar is easy; the collar is in the OFF state when the battery part is up and in the ON state when the battery part is turned down. The operating idea is based on the automatic ON-OFF switch inside the battery compartment. So there are no extra switches in the light collar and there is no need to open it unnecessarily. The OFF mode comes into use when the battery part of the collar has been facing up for about 1 minute.

The Leuchtie light collar is 100% waterproof, so the dog can even swim with the collar on. It is made in Germany from a material that repels moisture and dirt.

Battery

The Leuchtie Mini light collar works with two AAAA batteries and the operating time with one pair of batteries is up to 50 hours. When the light collar starts to dim, you have to change the batteries and this way the collar shines brightly again.

The choice of the color of the lights

All Leuchtie collars, regardless of the shade, are excellently visible in the dark, so you can choose the color that pleases you the most.

However, a darker-colored plastic shell tints the bright light of the LEDs somewhat more than a transparent or light-colored plastic shell. So when Choosing a color, it may be good to take these points into account:

• If your dog walks close to you most of the time and has short fur, a slightly less bright/warm shade may be more pleasing to your own eyes in the dark. Such colors are e.g. red and pink.
• If your dog often runs free and further away from you or has long hair, you may want to maximize the brightness of the light. The brightest colors are cold tones such as turquoise and neon green.

Choosing the size of the Leuchtie light collar

The Leuchtie light collar is placed on the dog by stringing it over the head. Thus, the selection of the size is made according to the circumference of the head, not the neck.

1. Measure the tight circumference at the widest point of the dog's head, usually in front of the ears. See the model in the image below.
2. Choose the Leuchtie size closest to this measurement. If your dog is between sizes, you should usually choose a smaller size.

If your dog's ears are not particularly large and protruding, you should not take them into account when choosing the size of Leuchtie. The size of the Leuchti should be small enough that the collar does not fall over the ears on its own even if the dog sniffs the ground.

The collar comes with a fastening loop, with which Leuchtien can be attached to a regular collar or harness as a safety measure if desired. This is a good thing to do, especially if you buy a Leuchtie with room for growth for a young dog.

Below you can see an indicative table with example breeds. If at all possible, always measure the dog in question before ordering, as there are differences between individuals.
