Highlighted Reviews

— Candy

"I had bought 2 last year in June and just now needing to replace them. My puppy likes to check out the yard at least once a night/early morning. This is a great way to see where she is, even without my glasses on."

— Homer

"Bought two. The first one broke the second time I used it. The little on/ off switch broke off and made the light nonfunctional . The second light did the same thing after one time use. Very poorly designed since the switch is so fragile. Do not waste your money."

Bottom Line

If you're looking for a reliable LED safety tag for your pet, consider other options that have better durability and functionality. This product is not recommended due to the high likelihood of failure and poor user experience.
