Negative feedback raises startup errors, power-restoration behavior, app dependence, and pets reaching the probe or cord. These mixed reports are installation and support priorities, not guarantees about every unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"petnf-warning\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtect the probe separately:\u003c\/strong\u003e The metal-guarded power cord does not make the external probe cable chew-proof.
