Product Information

The Garmin Alpha 200i and Alpha 200 Dog Tracking Handheld is a GPS tracking and training unit for sporting dog handlers, built around a 3.5 inch sunlight-readable touchscreen that tracks up to 20 active dogs or handhelds at up to 9 miles (14.5 km) depending on terrain, with preloaded TopoActive mapping and an IPX7 water rating. Two configurations are offered here: the Alpha 200i handheld on its own (part number 010-02230-50) with Garmin inReach satellite messaging, and the Alpha 200 handheld bundled with an Alpha TT 25 tracking and training collar (part number 010-02447-63).

Who it is for

This is the handheld for hunters and dog handlers who need to see where every dog is on a topographic map, run training corrections from the same screen, and keep working in rough weather and cold. The Alpha 200i adds a layer for people who hunt outside cell coverage: two-way satellite SMS, location exchange with other inReach devices, MapShare and interactive SOS to a 24/7 emergency response center over the Iridium network, all on an active satellite subscription.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Garmin Alpha 200 and the Alpha 200i?

Both share the same 3.5 inch sunlight-readable touchscreen handheld, TopoActive mapping and 9 mile MURS tracking for up to 20 dogs. The Alpha 200i adds Garmin inReach technology: two-way satellite SMS, location exchange with other inReach devices, MapShare and interactive SOS to a 24/7 emergency response center over the Iridium network, which requires an active satellite subscription. Expect about 15 hours of battery with inReach enabled versus up to 20 hours.

Does the Alpha 200i come with a dog collar?

No. The Alpha 200i option listed here, part number 010-02230-50, is the handheld only, with no collar included. The Alpha 200 option, part number 010-02447-63, is a bundle that includes the Alpha 200 handheld and an Alpha TT 25 tracking and training collar. A microSD card is not included with either configuration.

Which Garmin dog devices work with the Alpha 200 series?

At launch Garmin listed the Alpha 200 as compatible with TT 15 dog devices and the Alpha 200i as compatible with TT 15 and T 5 dog devices, and the Alpha 200 bundle here ships with an Alpha TT 25 collar. Compatible training collars support 18 levels of continuous and momentary stimulation plus audible tone and vibration. Call 888-701-4017 if you need a specific collar confirmed.

Is the Garmin Alpha 200 handheld waterproof?

The handheld carries an IEC 60529 IPX7 rating, meaning it withstands incidental exposure to water of up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes. It handles rain, snow and incidental submersion to 1 m for up to 30 minutes, not sustained immersion or diving. The unit operates from -4 to 140 degrees F (-20 to 60 degrees C) and charges between 32 and 113 degrees F (0 to 45 degrees C).

Review summary

4.8 11 ratings across the web

This is the Garmin Alpha 200 series dog tracking handheld, the generation before the Alpha 300, and written reviews are still few. It has a 3.5-inch sunlight-readable touchscreen, 16 GB of storage, preloaded TopoActive maps with on-device satellite imagery, and tracking for up to 20 assets out to a stated 9 miles. The 200i adds inReach two-way satellite messaging and interactive SOS, while the Alpha 200 option comes bundled with a TT 25 collar. Battery life runs up to 20 hours, and both are IPX7. It suits handlers who want full tracking without paying for the newest model.

Great purchase and "Like New" as advertized.

Excellent wetsuit but will it crush quickly like other wetsuits?

I purchased a BARE 5mm Reactive wetsuit (open box), which was like new, to replace my 1.5 yr old BARE 5mm Velocity wetsuit which had collapsed to only 2.5mm after 3 diving trips (~100 dives). The Reactive wetsuit is well constructed and very flexible. I had to increase the size of the Reactive suit, as it was smaller than the BARE Velocity suit of the same size. Tremendous customer service by Dive Catalog to exchange the wetsuit for proper size. I hope the Reactive suit does not crush so quickly like my other wetsuits (BARE, Henderson, Pinnacle). Hoping that the new technology in this suit will keep me warm below the thermocline.

Perfectly Built

Best of the many many diver hangers in my life. Easily supports my steel-plated BCD, while still donned with all of my accessories. No cracks, bends, or dents. Has even supported my BCD w/ a steel 100 tank attached (not recommended, for safety purposes, though).

Will continue to use this hanger for the long-term. No brainer.

Go-to Dive Hanger

This is a must-have for every diver. It's the quintessential hanger for all dive gear in one small package.

DiveCatalog's "Quick Dry Multi Accessory Dive Gear Hanger for Boots, Gloves, Hood" is set at a great price for a great product. Versatile enough that I've purchased extra hangers to organize my BMX racing gear.

Must-have for divers and anyone looking to organize their adventurous outdoor activities equipment.
