Solar Powered Electric Fence Charger 5 Km 0.25 Joules Output (9-11KV) Electric Fence Energizer Containment & Protection of Livestock, Horses, Cattle Sheep, Pets Easy Installation

Arrived promptly and after a charge on the mains to get it started it was out and on duty. It replaced a smaller unit so I did not have get a fence and stake. It has worked for the last 48hours and the flash and tick from the fence showed that it worked on a drizzly October day and stored enough for overnight. I still expect to top it up in the winter. So top marks for ease of set up and functioning as designed.The smaller unit was replaced as the seagulls and heron treated it with disdain, it really did not bother them. This morning I watched on CCTV as the heron received several jolts as it went through the fence, you could see it flinch, but it still got to the pond. I will be extending the wire of the fence but the learning is that there is not sufficient power to stop or deter the bird, only to teach it some respect. It did keep its distance from the wire as it took off when I appeared.So a good bit of kit but for some purposes it serves only as a warning not a solution. That is were the final star was lost as the description did include protection against herons, which it isn’t.UpdateSix months later and over the winter I only had to recharge it from the mains three times so that exceeded expectations.I have added a star as after its initial casual approach the heron has only been back a couple of times and then it kept a distance from the fence. It flies over most weeks, being chased by the gulls, but does not stop. So it appears that the unit is now earning its keep as intended.

Absolutely brilliant piece of equipment! Saves so much time recharging car batteries.I gave this a charge using electric before using it and haven’t had to charge it all winter. So it has gone Dec, Jan & Feb on solar. I can personally confirm it gives a good shock too! Highly recommended and easy to set up and use

Excellent, easy to set up and works lovely

Is very easy to set up and has kept my pony at bay from breaking through fence - definitely worth the money

I will be buying another one of these as it works well and is simple to use . The only small problem I had was working out how to mount it onto the spike supplied as not in instructions , but I managed it . And give the seller their due , they said any problems to contact them . Which is great to know .

A well priced item, easy to set up apart from the stand which has no instructions. The flashing light that shows when the unit is on is tiny and very hard to see in most lights.Saying that, the item works well and is far better value than many other solar energisers so if you want a deterrent that works without spending too much this could be for you.

I love the product but I can’t find the charger for boosting the charge and so I need to buy another plug. Hopefully you can advise me as to where I can buy a new one

Bought this to electrify 50m of netted electric fencing. Initially I was concerned it may struggle with the multiple strands of electric wire in the net but not a problem at all, it’s also in a shaded spot but that also hasn’t been an issue. Super easy to set up, does exactly what it’s supposed to, the solar charges it sufficiently and the price in comparison to similar products is wonderful, very pleased with my purchase and cannot fault it.
