SM, I have used one and own a few and have used them with with some sucess, I have been a dog trainer on the side for the better of 10 yrs now. I prefer using cinch collar (choker) and have had great success. I do like the remote training collars as well and most have variable intensity settings on them ..I am sure the collar will come with some type of handout. But just start out with as low as a setting possible and increase to it has an effect. It is nice having the ability to enforce a command from a distance ,I just find it unrealistic to expect a dog to obey a command if they aren't dead on balls perfect on a leash..But,who says I know anything?? like I said, I prefer training a dog on a 6' leather leash and a fine linked chain choker..
