Notes…
Red numbers (in chart)
indicate energizers with
a “wide” impedance
output curve.
The larger the number
in column 2 the longer
the fence can be, the more
weed contact can occur and
still have an effective fence.
2 joules will cope with
twice as many weeds as a
1 joule unit.
The higher the number
in column 3 the better
this unit will perform in
dry soils and with species
that have high electrical
resistance (such goats, deer
and poultry).
Draw in watts per hr in
column 8 —Plug-in units
use relatively little energy
when compared to bulbs.
A Patriot P5 uses less
than 5 watts per hour. At
13¢ per kwH, that’s only
1.5¢ per day.
The Kube 4000, at current
prices, is an excellent
combination of value and
performance for a plug-in
unit for short fences—
because of its capabilities in
both dry and moist soils.
The Speedrite 12000 units
are not suitable for horse
or domestic pig fences (too
much energy).
The AN90 is not large
enough in output for
electrified netting fences.
Predicts size of battery needed (or solar
panel) and how often you will need to
recharge it. Large numbers mean larger
panels or more frequent recharges.
Note that mA draw of Patriot units is
the same for both clean and weedy fences.
For IntelliShock units, when a fence is
clean (no green weeds), the mA draw is
low. If a fence is weedy, the mA draw of
IntelliShock energizers is higher. Thus
battery and solar panel requirements
(columns 11 and 12) are higher and lower.
Use deep cycle instead of automotive
batteries. Why? Automotive batteries can
only be drawn down 5% before they lose
premier1supplies.com • 1-800-282-6631 recharging ability. DC batteries can be
drawn down 60%. DC batteries recharge
slowly (1 to 2 amp/hr).
Do not go below a 40% charge on a DC
battery whether in use or in storage.
11. Days between recharging for
clean and weedy fences
Predicts when a 12V 100 amp hr deep
cycle battery will need recharging under
clean (no weeds) conditions. Assumes
being drawn down to 40% between
recharges. (An equal size vehicle battery
must be recharged 3X more often to
prevent damage to battery.)
12. Solar panel for clean and
weedy conditions
Predicts solar panel size (in watts)
advised for each energizer under clean vs
weed-laden fence conditions.
The low number of a range assumes 6
average solar insolation hours per day
(southern US or summer in north).
The high number assumes only 4
insolation hours per day. Using a larger
panel allows a smaller battery to be used
and vice versa.
Note regarding columns 10, 11 and 12
Clean fences have no contact with green/wet weeds. Wires
in contact with green weeds 6" from soil cause 7 times more
energy drain than wires contacting weeds 30" from soil.
