1. How does the Dogtra 1900X differ from the 280X?

The 280X is a compact device designed for dogs 10 lbs and up. It has a 1/2-mile range and provides medium stimulation output, making it ideal for small to medium-sized dogs.

In contrast, the 1900X is built for dogs 35 lbs and up, offering an impressive 3/4-mile range. It delivers high stimulation output, making it better suited for strong-willed or larger breeds. It also features a protective metal e-collar cover for added durability.

2. What’s the difference between the 1900X and 1900S?

The 1900X features a redesigned remote with a dual-layered protective front plate, a central command button, tone, boost, and XPP Vibration modes. It also boasts an integrated LED light for improved visibility and can handle up to 3 dogs simultaneously.

In contrast, the 1900S offers a more streamlined design with HPP Vibration, Nick, and Continuous buttons. While it lacks the additional features of the 1900X, it still provides reliable and effective training capabilities.

3. Can I use the 1900S e-collar on the 1900X remote?

Yes, you can pair the 1900S e-collar with the 1900X remote, but certain features exclusive to the 1900X – such as the tone, XPP vibration, and the LED e-collar light – won't be accessible when paired.

4. Is the 1900X more powerful than the 1900S?

The output levels on the 1900X are not directly equivalent to those on the 1900S. For instance, a level 14 on the 1900S is comparable to a level 10 on the 1900X. You can consult the 1900X Level Comparison Chart to better understand the differences.

When upgrading to the 1900X, we recommend recalibrating and finding your dog’s ideal working level for this new system.

Additionally, the 1900X features Extreme Performance Pager Vibration, which delivers a stronger impact than the 1900S’s High Performance Vibration.

5. Can I pair my HANDSFREE SQUARES with the 1900X?

Yes, the HANDSFREE PLUS Squares are compatible with the 1900X. You can pair up to 14 squares with the 1900X or any X-Series Remote Transmitter.

6. Is the vibration adjustable?

No, the vibration strength is fixed and cannot be adjusted. It remains consistent regardless of the level setting, whether at 0 or 100.

7. Can I use my 1900S contact points or Titanium Enhanced Contacts on the 1900X?

The 1900X is not compatible with the same contact points as the 1900S. It requires male contact points, as the X-Series models do not work with the female contacts used in the 1900S.
