How the 200 Plus differs from the 200

The Plus keeps the familiar 200 layout and collar support while updating the internals. If you already run a 200 and it works, the Plus is not a reason to upgrade; if you are buying new and the price sits close to the 300, compare the two directly on the model comparison before deciding.

Like the base 200, it has no inReach. For satellite messaging you want the 200i or 300i.

Collars and accessories

It bundles with the TT 25 and reads the T 20 and older collars. The usual add-ons apply: a longer antenna, a spare battery, and a case.
