[QUOTE="aplusmnt, post: 156849, member: 1399"] Yea money is always the problem. But when you look world wide at the man hours used in managing cattle I am sure it could end up being cost effective years down the line. I would say maybe a small round tag with a battery in it that is disposable. You could just cut out the tags every so often (battery life) and replace the whole tag when you work them. So you do not have to be out in field changing batteries...lol. My portable GPS we use when riding mules in the hills only uses a couple AA batteries, but you would have to have some power to send back to your base station. So juice might be the biggest problem. I am sure there is Batteries out there to do it but those small powerful ones are expensive. [/QUOTE]
