I need some ideas for some docking stations for collars... 8 T5s and 2 DC 50s gets to be a pain and messy the day before every hunt. Has to be a better way than taking up every available plug in the house and having collars strolled out.

Larry...the one I bought from Walmart has for 10 plug ins and they are spaced apart which is perfect for the collars. The surge protector is about 3.5 ft long...I also have a second one that fits about three collars. I bought a black wire shelf from Lowes and keep all my tracking collars, shock collars and head lamps on it to charge as needed...the protectors are tie wrapped so they won't move... |

I'll have to check it out, the strip I have had 5 and you can only plug a charger in every other 1... Thanks gentlemen.

I'm in the process of making one with a power strip and some pegboard to put on a wall with the hangers to hold the collars

They sell ones on the web that plug into the wall and has 10 usb ports. I bought one, but haven't set up my station yet. I have an old wall mount gun cabinet with glass doors that I'm going to convert when I build my shed

Dogs found both of them. The left one is 324 inches and the other is 237 inches . All my rafters are full of them in my shop.

 Sorry it took so long, it needs a different power strip for all the chargers but that's basically it. Put some little wood strips along the back borders to keep the hooks off the wall. |

I was considering drilling out some of the holes and running the chargers behind the board and out the front...... Opinions on that??

I know it's hard but look below each collar and not at the deer antlers and you will see a hole. Cords and power bar out of sight.

Oh ok, ya I think I'm going to do that. I'll have to keep the power strip in front, but yours looks a lot "cleaner" with the cords behind it all than mine does.
