84 ENERGIZERS & SOLAR PANELS
Speedrite AN90 For temporary horse and cattle fences. Too small for netting fences. Has few equals for ease of use and portability. To install, push it into the soil with your foot and clip to the fence. To move, just unclip it from the fence, lift, carry by handle and reset with your foot. • Peak output: 0.12 joules • Pulses per minute: 38 • 6v/12v DC draw: 31 mA • Impedance type: low • Input: (DC) 6v or 12v battery Uses 4 D-cells or a 12 volt battery.

HotShock & IntelliShock units…
The IntelliShock 10, 20, 31 AC/DC units are
uniquely
able
to
automatically adjust the milliamp draw from the
battery
to a much lower level
when the fence is free of green vegetation.
So these units use much less battery energy when the
fence is weed-free (cattle, horse, deer fences, and most
fences in winter).
Therefore they also require smaller solar panels if needed.
They are made by Horizont, the German company whose
products we have used for 15 years.
Speedrite units…
The 1000, 2000, 3000, 6000i, and 12000i have these extra
features and capabilities:
• AC/DC (110v plug-in or 12v DC battery).
• A switch that will:
> Indicate battery charge level.
> Slow pulse rate to 25 per minute.
> Set a fast day pulse and slow night pulse—which works
well for trained livestock without predator exposure.
> Set a low day pulse and fast night pulse—reduces
battery demand but still deters predators at night.
> Can turn it on or off remotely (only the 6000i, 12000i).
• 1000, 2000 and 3000 include 3 ft lead-out wires to clip to
fence and ground rod. The 6000i and 12000i do not.
• A light bar that indicates approximate voltage. When it
falls into the “red” area, it’s time to check the fence to
identify possible problems.
• 6000 and 12000 also indicate the voltage
at the energizer
digitally (3100 volts is 3.1) in a small window in the upper
right corner.
Energizer Kits (pp. 85–87, 93, 96–97) Why purchase a kit? Users tell us that kits simplify their purchasing decisions—because electrified fences require energizers, ground rods, accessories, etc. And for those with minimal experience, it’s complicated to choose and buy multiple components and build fences. However, we also know that: 1. Many already own an energizer that they can use. If you’re not sure whether it will work well with our fences, call us. We won’t try to sell you anything you don’t need. 2. Many need, or want, larger energizers than those in our kits. And folks rarely regret buying a larger energizer. If so, call us. We’ll help you work out a solution. 3. Seeing helps. View the videos on our website to see how to set up an energizer.Available on pp. 86–89.
