This added level of visibility provided peace of mind, assuring me that the electric fence was functioning properly and maintaining a deterrent effect on potential intruders. The energizer was straightforward to install, and the build quality was evident. The unit felt durable and essential for outdoor use in varying conditions. Its low energy consumption was also a notable advantage, ensuring cost-effective operation over time. In terms of animal prevention, the energizer's power output proved to be effective in dissuading wildlife from encroaching on my property. The added security and protection it offered were invaluable, especially in the presence of wild animals in the vicinity. In conclusion, the Briidea 2-Mile Electric Fence Energizer has proven to be an excellent solution for preventing wild animals and safeguarding property. The incorporation of a blinking status light, along with its durable construction and effective performance, makes it a reliable choice for anyone seeking to protect their property from wildlife intrusions. I highly recommend this energizer for its functionality, ease of use, and reliable animal deterrence.

I have a small square yard in my townhouse and two sibling cats. The female is an escape artist. I have been looking for a top of fence solution to keep them in, because the invisible fences are of course circular, which would keep the kitties from roaming the corners of the small yard. I originally bought a discontinued havahart kit, but when i tested it it was so strong my finger hurt for hours; i could literally feel the current flowing - i think it pulses very slowly. Scary. So I was hoping that this unit would be less dangerous and thankfully it is. When the unit is plugged in, you can hear it tick as it sends the pulses. (So it doesn't actually matter if the pulsing red light on the unit is hard to see.) And the pulses, while strong, are very quick. So it’s literally a quick zap... it will quickly repel a small animal right off the fence without trapping them in flowing current. Installation: a many people do not realize how to make an electric fence work. That’s why lots of reviews say it doesn’t. Single wire: If you run a single wire (with a ground wire from the unit to a grounding bar) the animal HAS to be on the ground to feel the fence. This is because the animal itself closes the electric circuit and the current can then run through the fence, through the animal, and through the ground to the grounding bar. ZAP. But if you have a very long fence, then you need to have more than one grounding rod spaced over the length of the fence or else the circuit diminishes the further you get from the unit. Double wire: a top of fence solution like mine can't use the ground as part of the circuit and so requires two wires: one neutral and “hot” one. The neutral wire is fulfilling the role of the ground and grounding bar. When the animal touches both wires, ZAP. You need to string both wires so that they are close enough that an animal will touch both of them. But you install them so that they otherwise DO NOT TOUCH each other at all. You can see in my photos that I strung the hot wire through the insulators, and I strung the neutral wire on the bottom portion of the insulator so that the two lines never meet unless touched. If you want to save yourself literal hours of installation, I absolutely recommend poly wire over stiff steel wire because it is flexible and extremely easy to install. For safety, I connected it to green insulated wire to run directly to the unit itself, and from the unit to the grounding bar. The unit is not rated for outdoors, so a simple, waterproof enclosure should keep it safe. For the first time ever, my cats have been able to spend hours out there, without my worrying that the female will escape. The fence has only been up for a day and she is not even trying. I can only think she touched it once while unsupervised; that would’ve been all it takes. She’s not going anywhere, she can be out there with or without me, and I don’t have to be on high alert over her using the furniture to climb over. The beauty of this type of VISIBLE fence is that it only takes one or two shocks and your pet will likely be well trained. I expect that I will be able to leave it off and the cats will still stay in their space. COST: compared to wireless systems where your pet has to wear a special collar, this system is incredibly cost-effective - it's a fraction of the cost. All you need is the unit, polywire, insulators, and a grounding bar. CHEAP! *I should note that an Australian product called “Smart Cats Stay Home” sells this EXACT solution…for $400! PROS: Effective. Cheap. Quick to install. Safe. (For birds too.) Can be used in square spaces. Doesn’t require a collar. CONS: Needs a waterproof box. Difficult to find resources on how to install a fence with a double wire solution; an installation manual with diagrams would make this product a standout. (Hope my pics help!)

A good charger, provided you know what to expect, and know what you are doing. To address the most common complaints I see here: > This is a low-cost, low-power solution. It's a garden charger, not a livestock fence charger. The output is .1 joules, so when they say 2 miles, they are talking a single strand of steel wire under ideal conditions. > You need to have good grounding. I can't stress this enough. > The posts lack washers, which would improve contact with the wire. I put in a couple of 1/4 inch washers per post. > It is moderately weatherproof; I recommend a shield or cover for long term. > Lifespan is good for a squirrel charger; I have 2, one failed after 3 and a half years. I am repurchasing. All that said; I do use it for horses, for small-to-medium enclosures; it works well for 3 strands of tape up to 20 by 30 feet. It keeps in my rowdy draft stud colt. Overall: I give it a solid 4. Pros: cost for performance; good lifespan for a cheap charger. Cons: mediocre contact with the posts, solvable with washers or a ring connector; not particularly weatherproof; indicator light is tiny and hard to see.

The deer in my neighborhood are real jerks and love to eat my hydrangeas so I have had this electric fence going for about three weeks. It was very easy to set up and seems to put out a pretty good shock. I have not had any issues with the deer since I put it up. A neighbor was walking early one morning and saw the deer going out of their way to avoid the fence now. I cannot speak to its longevity, but it has been good for a few weeks. I saw another review where someone connected the fence to a smart plug. I thought that was brilliant so I did the same thing in hopes of getting more life out of it. Now it automatically comes on at sunset and turns off at sunrise. This way it doesn’t hurt any people or my dogs.

it is send without any parts. You need to go and buy wires to connect the fence yourself. After spending extra money, I find out this is still not working and return it.

I bought this to deter SQUIRRELS from my fruit trees. It works great if you install it correctly. Many people are complaining that it doesn't work on squirrels or other small climbing/flying animals, but that is because they install it incorrectly for that purpose. In order for any electric fence to work, <b>the animal must become part of the electrical path from the positive wire to the negative wire.</b> If you install this with the negative wire grounded, it will only work if the animal is touching the ground AND the positive wire. <b>To work for squirrels and other small climbing/flying animals, you must run BOTH the positive and negative wires such that the animal touches both at the same time.</b> For squirrels, I ran the wires with about 2 inch spacing (see photos). The wires cannot touch each other and do not ground the negative wire. Other Points: - It is not rated for outdoor installation, so if you need to mount it outdoor, you will need a weatherproof enclosure. - It is pulsed, so it will not shock constantly. This is a positive as most animals will jump and flee. With a constant shock some animals will get stuck and killed. You might touch it to test it and not get shocked for a couple seconds. - Installation of the box is easy. Running the "fence" wires is the same as every other electric fence.

Works well good price

Works like it should! Power cord is very short and you have to put it at a receptacle or add a receptacle

Fue muy fácil su instalación

Facile à installer et efficace.

Lo conecte despues del tiempo de devolucion, no funciono, del terminal de corriente no sale energia por lo tanto no hay energia en los cables, lo he conectado de todas las formas posibles y nada, esto es un fraude. Amazon deberia de calificar a sus provredores. Ya no lo puedo devolver y el problema por el cual lo compre.persiste. porque no sirve. No lo compren no lo recomiendo.pierdo $600. y tantos pesos. Abusados del engaño.

Works great to keep the cows out of the hay storage area!

Muy bien 👍
