Harold I have the 300i and TT25. I do not pair with a watch because it's just too much stuff to manage. I think mine refreshes every 2.5 seconds and it shows Raisin on point pretty regularly and reliably. I have hunted an entire day and never came below 50% on the battery, so yes it seems good. I also have an outlet in the back of the 4Runner and when she's done the collar and transmitter get plugged in and it's always charging in the car and that's worked very well for me. I use Simparica and have had bad luck with flea/tick collars. I was going to use both but my vet said no. Ticks are active above 32-34 degrees I believe so I'm not suprised about that. I have found my best success with Simparica Trio oral and spraying her lightly with a Permethrin spray like Sawyers or Advantage or Adams before a day of hunting. I just don't have many ticks on her after that. A good google search will turn up articles on the safety of spraying your dog with permethrin, but if you have a pointing cat, it's not for use on cats : )
