User questions & answers

Question:	What are the dementions on the box
Answer:	The box is 5" wide at the base, 6" in height and 2 3/4 thick. The box tapers a bit at the top. Jim
Question:	Will this unit electrify a normal sized mailbox
Answer:	Yes, this unit is strong enough to electrify a normal sized mailbox. I have never seen it done but this charger can do it if it is set up correctly.
Question:	I have two chihuahuas that I am trying to keep away from a section of my yard. Is this too much voltage
Answer:	I have this although I have not used it yet due to snow. It is similar to the Hartz model in voltage. It is not a steady current. I have 4 small dogs 7-10 pounds. All touched the line they yelped. I held the line and it surely tingles didn't hurt. One however did get stuck on it however still not sure and it left a wound not bad but a mark nonetheless. They did learn to stay away from it after three or so zaps. It is not strong like for large animals but I would supervise your dogs to be certain nothing bad happens until they learn to keep away.
Question:	Will it work for a Trump yard sign
Answer:	I used a much more powerful unit and it worked perfectly. Our sign is the only one still in our neighborhood.

Product description

The Patriot PE2 electric fence energizer is a 110-volt AC plug in 0.10 Joule model. Low impedance energizer designed to deliver power to the end of the fence, even under heavy load (foliage, undergrowth). Has a LED indicator that pulses when energizer is working. Easy installation. Distance range: 2 miles Distance range: 8 acres Peak Output Energy: Up to 0.1J Peak Stored Energy: Up to 0.16J Combine the PE2 with a 250ft spool of Patriot Made n the U.S.A. 17 gauge aluminum wire and you've got the ideal solution for containing pets and keeping out small nuisance animals. Make sure your electric fence charger meets the requirements of your electric fence, refer to your Patriot installation manual for guidance. This will vary depending on the type of fence, the number of fence wires, how much vegetation is growing around the fence and the climate. Remember, if you extend the length of the fence by adding to the fence or subdividing it with temporary fences, you need to make sure your charger is powerful enough. If you use a more powerful charger, make sure you increase the number of ground rods in the ground system. Avoid using different metals in your electric fence. In damp conditions, when an electric current passes through the differing metals, electrolysis will occur. For example, using stainless steel ground rods and an aluminum leadout wire will cause problems. In a short space of time, the aluminium will disintegrate. If possible, keep the wire joints above the soil to improve airflow and reduce electrolysis. Seal the wire joints with thick paint, epoxy or tar to keep moisture away from the joint area. Use identical metals in your electric fence will avoid problems with electrolysis altogether.

• Set includes 1 Patriot Electric Fence Charger plus 1 250ft spool of Patriot Made in the USA 17 Gauge aluminum wire and Quick Tip Guide. Does NOT include a ground rod. Only effective for small nuisance animals.
• PE2 Output Voltage: Up to 5 kV max, 2.8 kV @ 500 ohms;Patriot Wire tensile strength 38,000 PSI; Fi-Shock Breaking load: 90 lbs; Fi-Shock aluminum wire Will not rust; Will Keep Dogs from Digging Out of Their Pen; Keep Rabbits and Deer Out of Your Garden; For Use as an Electric Dog Fence
• If you test the wire to see if it will shock you, don't be standing in boots that insulate you from the ground. It will not work then! The ground system should be at least 33' (10 m) away from electric or telephone ground systems to avoid interference.
• Moist soil conducts electricity much better than dry soil. If possible, locate the ground system in a boggy area. In dry weather, wet the area around the ground system to keep the soil moist.
• Make sure there are a sufficient number of ground rods. See your charger’s user manual for recommendations. If in doubt, use at least three ground rods. Use more ground rods if your soil conditions are not ideal. Ground rods should be at least 6'6" (2 m) long. One long ground rod works better than several short ground rods.

User questions & answers

Question:	I just need to cover the back of my yard. The dog only digs under the fence in the very back of my property. Will this work for me
Answer:	The dog needs to cross the circuit in order to shock.The ground stake is one side and a hot wire above the ground where he digs is the other side.While standing on the ground, if he touches the hot wire, he's zapped. It can be done.
Question:	I know this comes with 250’ is 17 gauge wire but if I need to can I add more to travel the intire circumfrance of my yard
Answer:	yes you can add more wire. I think that the range of that transmitter is about a quarter mile.
Question:	Is this waterproof? I cannot mount it inside my home
Answer:	They are sturdy but not waterproof; most manufacturers recommend installing under shelter but you can make your own cover out of a milk jug or plastic container to fit over the top, just cut out holes for the wires and cord or plug to come through. You will have to replace occasionally as they break down but for a small price (or nothing if you recycle a container) you will extend the life of your charger.
Question:	I want to add this to a 6-foot chain-link fence is that possible
Answer:	Yes it is and there are insulators to attach the wire specifically made for chain link fences.

Product description

With the Zareba 5 Mile Solar Low Impedance Fence Charger your fence can have power from anywhere. This fence charger runs up to 2 weeks without sunlight and is powered by an internal rechargeable battery. With 0.15 output joules, this energizer will support animals and livestock such as cattle, horses, pigs, and goats. This charger energizes up to 5 miles of fencing, although if using poly products, you should expect about half of the power. The more material along the fence line, the harder the energizer must work to pass voltage through the line. To prepare the 5 Mile Solar Charger for first use, place the unit in full sun for 3 days in the off position. After this charging period, the unit is ready to use and install. Set the charger's integrated mounting bracket onto a T-post, Y-post, or round-wood post. On T-posts specifically the charger can rotate 360 degrees to face the suns changing directions.

User questions & answers

Question:	how big is the box
Answer:	Little smaller than a breadbox.
Question:	Is this unit waterproof? Can it be left in the rain
Answer:	yes. I left it out all summer without any problem. If you have a lot of thunderstorms, might want a lightening protector, otherwise it works great in all weather.
Question:	Would this jolt a bear? Am looking for something to protect bees in bear country
Answer:	While electric fencing is a great option for several different types of animals, we apologize as we do not recommend it for bears.
Question:	Would 1" polytape and this charger work for a horse
Answer:	Using polytape on the fence will lower the voltage you can expect from a charger. For shorter polytape fences, this charger will work well to contain horses. If fencing in a larger area, a more powerful charger may be needed. Please feel free to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-855-5-ZAREBA (1-855-592-7322) for assistance with your specific setup.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why is this charger not good for rabbits and dogs
Answer:	This energizer outputs more voltage than is typically needed to contain small animals such as rabbits and dogs.
Question:	Is it easy to install
Answer:	Yes, it is easy to install. With some basic knowledge of how hot fencers work. Make sure you have good ground rods and insulators. We have about an acre with two strands fenced and dangles on the bottom for goats. It pops enough that it has earned their respect.
Question:	What would someine estimate the monthy cost to run this charger?y
Answer:	Our energizers are very cost effective to run and would typically be no more than $5 extra on an electric bill.
Question:	Is this unit cat safe
Answer:	Perhaps other methods should be considered this charger would probably not harm a healthy large dog but cats are rather small and if the cat is very young or old it may harm them. Only a guess but error on the safe side.

User questions & answers

Question:	Would you please be willing to clarify the warranty? The manufacturer states 2 years. Your description says 1. Thank you
Answer:	The one I purchased in 2013 had a 1 year warranty. It had to be returned for service twice during the warranty period.. The second time they sent me a new one. So far that one has worked fine. It was painful to be without the fence charger for weeks during each failure though. Hopefully it was just a bad initial unit because it is a great charger and mine was still producing a significant charge even after deer had broken several of the wires.
Question:	Will this charger work for horses and can i use a poly wire with it
Answer:	Mine works for bears so I would assume horses would be impressed by this charger. I have had no experience with poly wire but I would think that their website can answer.
Question:	How many jolts does it put out
Answer:	I use the fencer to keep critters out of the garden. I run one wire about 3 feet above the ground that is about 500 feet long, The meter reads 15.6 kilovolts. The other wire is 6 inches above the ground with all vegetation below that wire removed. This wire is for raccoon and woodchuck control. When I connect the two wires together, the meter shows 14.5 kilovolts but I know the voltage on the lower wire is much less as indicated by the spark length when shorting the lower wire to ground. This is likely due to capacitance between the lower wire and ground bleeding off the high frequency component of the pulses. The longer the wire and/or lower the wire the greater the drop in voltage along the wire regardless of the fencer make and model. Regardless, garden raids have gone from about one per night to zero. I've got about 60 years experience with electric fencers and this is the best I've ever seen.
Question:	will this work for a very short fence? I am not using it for the farm. I am using it for the house so no animal will get near the house
Answer:	I agree with all previous answers. It should work just fine, although it may well be overkill, and it will definitely give you a jolt if you touch it. Be aware of laws in your area pertaining to the use of such fencing. Also, you will want to make sure you have it grounded properly. I have four ground rods attached to mine. Our fence keeps the moose and bears away. Using an electric fence tester, I will pick up the electrical field before I even touch the fence so do not set a metal tool or pail near it. I had my horses' 70 gallon Rubbermade water tank too close to the fence. The horses had stopped drinking. I touched the water and got zapped. The Energizer 5 is a very powerful fencer.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a pulsed shock or constant shock? Thanks
Answer:	Pulsed...though I am not an authority...I believe intermittent chargers are the only chargers now sold. And, you'll find this particular charger as being quite shocking!
Question:	Is it effective on bears
Answer:	Yes. I needed to keep a 600 lb. bear out of my fruit orchards and vineyards. I used 2 strands of aluminum wire, one hot, one ground. Marked the hot wire between each post with a small piece of red caution tape tied on as inducement to "nose it". Bears are curious. Worked great, and worked immediately. Before, I had massive destruction of both trees and fences every summer and fall, after installation, no disturbance at all. Used one 6' ground rod, with insulators holding the wire out from a T-post and 6' turkey wire fence with top rail so deer won't jump it. Effective for deer, bear, any animal because once they touch the wire, they learn real quick to leave it alone. The steel turkey wire plus steel T-posts also act as additional ground. If they put a paw on the fence, and touch the hot, zap!
Question:	does the battery come with it
Answer:	Yes, the battery does come with it. However after I received mine it worked for a couple of days and quit. The manufacture is providing warranty work after I pay the expense of shipping.
Question:	I just ordered this charger but I plan on using HorseGuard tape fencing... I just read a review that said the charger does not work well with tape
Answer:	We have never used it with tape, but one thing we found that REALLY helps with the connection between the box and the fencing is good copper wire. It helps transmit a very hot shock. It might be worth a try with the tape before returning the box!

User questions & answers

Question:	We only want to secure one side of our property. Do we have to make a loop with the fence
Answer:	We have it under our inflatable hot tub and it definitely adds some padding. I’m not sure about keeping heat in because the hot tub came with a bubble wrap style round mat also. Ours is on concrete and we’re able to maintain the heat with no issues, I’m not sure if the mat makes any difference with temp. Happy we bought this though.
Question:	How does the system hold up in snow
Answer:	Thanks your question. The wall will be reduce the distance. But my max theory distance is 300m, and please keep the transmitter in charger. I think the wall is not problem. Thank you
Question:	How do you recomend getting the wire under an asphalt driveway
Answer:	Yes it is circlular ，30m 60m 90m 150m 300m adjustable, but samething will refudce the distance. For example walls,trees.
Question:	Will this work on goats
Answer:	Setting the mini distance is fine

STANDARD GRADE KIT - 1 Dog on Up to 1 Acre (500' of 20 Gauge Boundary Wire)

An electric dog fence is the perfect way to keep your dog safely contained on your property, while giving him freedom off the leash at the same time. Here is how it works. An invisible boundary is created by the dog fence wire, which encircles your property. Your dog wears a special receiver collar, which activates when he or she approaches the wire. After several days of training, your dog learns to respect the boundaries that you have established.

The eXtreme Dog Fence Standard Grade system is the premiere D.I.Y. static correction pet containment system for the dog owner with up to 6 acres of coverage needs. Unlike other dog electric fence systems, this electric dog fence kit is manufactured in the USA. This underground dog fence package comes with everything you need to contain 1 dog, on up to 1 acre. If you purchase additional 20 gauge dog fence wire, the transmitter will accommodate up to 6 acres. There is no limit to the number of dogs you can have on this system, and each collar's correction strength is individually programmed, with 7 correction levels, and 1 'beep only' level to choose from, based on each dog's individual need.

When shopping for dog fences, some people wonder if an electric dog fence wireless option would be a better choice than a wired electric fence for dogs. Although a wireless dog fence takes less effort to install, their signal is not as reliable as a wired underground fence. If you are looking for the most dependable solution to contain your dog(s), this wired electric dog fence is the way to go. This wired dog fence allows you to create the border exactly where you want it to be.

THIS KIT INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:

• Digital Transmitter w/ Power Supply
• 1x Waterproof Collar Receiver
• 1000' of 20 Gauge Boundary Wire
• 1x Set of Short and Long Contact Probes (5/8", 7/8")
• 1x Set of Conductive Rubber Comfort Covers
• 1x 6v Collar Receiver Battery
• 100x Training Flags
• 4 Waterproof Splice Kits

Digital Transmitter

Dimensions: 4.5" high x 5.5" wide x 1" deep

The fence transmitter is the brain of your eXtreme Dog Fence. You not only set your signal field width here (which is the distance from the wire that the collar will activate), but you also program your collar's correction level here.

You can also change AM radio frequencies here, if you have a neighboring fence system that is causing interference with your fence.

The transmitter should be mounted indoors, so as to avoid any moisture getting into the electronics, and at least 3' away from any large metal objects.

Waterproof "Active" Collar

Receiver Dimensions: 1" high x 2" wide x 1" deep

Strap Dimensions: 3/4" wide (fits necks from 10" to 30")

Contact Probe Dimensions: small = 5/8", large = 7/8"

The "Active" collar is waterproof and submersible to 10 feet, with no impact on the receiver's performance.

It includes a long set of contact probes for dogs with long neck hair, and a short set for dogs with shorter hair. A set of metal infused rubber comfort covers are included to help keep the contact probes comfortable on your dog's neck.

The receiver weighs a mere 1.1 ounce and runs on a proprietary 6v battery, which lasts an average of 4 months (after the battery used during the training period).

The collar receiver has 7 correction levels (1-7) and a beep only level , to accommodate a wide range of dog sizes, breeds, personalities and temperaments.

20 AWG Boundary Wire

Specs: 20 gauge, solid copper core wire

This lightweight wire is easy to work with and is a good entry level wire to use on your eXtreme Dog Fence. The lifespan is usually between 2-5 years as long as you install as directed:

Burial: You can bury the wire from 1" to 3" deep

Above Ground: Above ground installation is not recommended with 20 gauge wire

Existing Fence: Attaching to an existing fence is not recommended with 20 gauge wire

Waterfront: Wire can be submerged in water, but a protective conduit like PVC or garden hose is recommended

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you connect to receivers for larger boundarie
Answer:	Yes, it's easy. If you place two units the perimeter will be the shape of a figure 8. Moving them closer together changes the shape to a 0. The area inside is free range. Three can make the shape of a three petaled flower or a long potato. Four makes more of a square. An issue to consider is interference caused by buildings and such. You just need electricity and protection from weather.
Question:	how to set up the fence
Answer:	Hmmm, this is a whacky system of Q&A, as I see nothing relating to the product in question onscreen. I can only assume that it's for the petsafe wireless fencing system, because I reviewed it a long time ago. In which case, I'd recommend searching youtube "how to set up petsafe wireless fencing system" or something along those lines. That is what I did, and found not only that but also visuals on how to train the animal to it....and, just to add to my last review a year ago, thank you, Petsafe, for continually providing some of the best customer service that I have ever experienced.
Question:	Can the range of the system be reduced to something less than the 90 feet? We want to use in our RV so area for containment would need to be smaller
Answer:	Yes it can be reduced to a very small area. The PetSafe company has a video online that explains it very well and how to test the exact distance you have set by changing the dial on the transmitter. Some friends of mine take it camping ( when an electric outlet is available) to contain their dog within their campsite. Main thing to remember that the broadcast area is round. Also follow instructions on training your pet to understand the system which is also on the afforementioned PetSafe video.Hope that helps.
Question:	Has anyone noticed this unit messing with their wifi signal? If so what type of wifi are you using (802.11a/b/g/n/ac
Answer:	If you have Internet through a cable company, it is possible for it to mess with your modem (not the wifi but the actual cable signal coming into the modem that gives you internet). It's really close to the upstream frequencies and could potentially cause problems

User questions & answers

Question:	what are the 2 modules or plugin devices, not the color thanks john
Answer:	Hi there John, the large white unit is the transmitter. The wires in the ground connects to this and it controls the signal. The smaller unit is a lightening protector that reduces the risk of power surges.
Question:	How much wire will I need to get for about 2 acres of property
Answer:	Hi there, for 2 acres of property you will need a minimum of 1,200 feet of wire. It will probably be best to have a total of 3 spools of wire (500 ft. each) so that you don't run out as the layout may call for extra.
Question:	How many feet of wire is included
Answer:	This system includes 500 feet of 20 gauge wire. However, I did a good deal of research before purchasing this system and I found that this is was not going to be enough for my yard and more importantly, this 20 gauge is a very light weight wire and many people had to replace it after just two years. As a result, I did use this system, but I did not use the cheap wire that came with it. I, instead, went to FlexPetz.com and used their "Heavy Duty 16-Gauge Dog Fence Wire (1000 ft)". The SKU number was HD-16AWG-1000. It cost me $117.95 and the shipping was free. They also have a good selection of various lengths if you do not need 1000 feet. I finished installing my fence myself two weeks ago and it is working great. I have no complaints and I feel confident knowing that I will not need to replace the wire anytime soon.
Question:	how many feet of wire can the device accommodate? I would like to run 3,000' (6 acres) but I could get by with just 1,400' (3 acres
Answer:	I have it around 5 acres and it works great. I have it attached, about afoot above the ground, to our regular wire cattle fence.

Product description

Poultry Netting Electric Fence (48" H x 164' L)

• 🐓 Keeps predators and unwanted animals out (Stray Dogs, Fox, Raccoons, Bears, Wolves, Rabbits , Skunks etc.) and keeps your Poultry safe and enclosed (Chickens, Peafowl, Ducks, Geese, etc. )
• 🐓 Energizer is not included - DOES NOT WORK WITHOUT AN ENERGIZER - We recommend 1/4 Joules of Energy Per Every 164' Roll - Use only low or wide impedance intermittent pulse energizers. Warning! Do NOT use continuous current energizers with electric netting.
• 🐓 Very easy to set up - Posts are pre-fastened to fence making setup less than 15 minutes - Stakes are placed every 12 Feet (Any less is unnecessary because this kit includes four guy-lines which prevent fence from sagging) Watch video to see the crisp lines of the fence
• 🐓 Double spiked posts provide extra support - Trimming grass and vegetation along the line of the fence is a must. When vegetation touches the horizontal wires of the fence, the current is lowered. If enough vegetation is touching the fence, it will render the fence useless. We recommend purchasing a fence tester and keeping your fence above 3000 Volts to prevent predators

User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have to make a square for this to work? Or would it work in a L shape
Answer:	An L shape or any shape for that matter is just fine. You don't need to connect the 2 ends together in order for the fence to produce a strong charge. An L or a Square produce the same charge. The RentACoop Team
Question:	What keeps predators from digging under
Answer:	Nothing, they will likely get hit by the power 1st trying to go through the fence but if they are persistent enough (dogs most likely) they will dig under. I have not had an issue with a dog digging under but many have been zapped by the fence and ran away.
Question:	Are you able to connect more than one roll together
Answer:	Yes, you can connect many rolls together. The more rolls you connect the more powerful your box will need to be. The RentACoop Team
Question:	Would this be effective in keeping squirrels out by surrounding my fruit trees
Answer:	I would doubt it. In order to get the shock, an animal has to be in contact with the ground and fence at the same time. If the squirrels jump on the fence, they won’t get shocked.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why do you recommend 10 pounds or heavier for the critters? Why would it not work for rats and squirrels
Answer:	Our electric fence systems will work best and be most effective for animals over 10 pounds.
Question:	Does this unit only provide a small shock to squirrels, but not enough to kill them? I just need a small shock to deter and not kill squirrels
Answer:	We apologize as we do not recommend electric fencing for squirrels. Our products can only be recommended for animals heavier than 10 pounds.
Question:	The specifications say "AC" is that just 60 HZ or is it pulsed? If pulsed how long and frequent are the pulses
Answer:	Standard AC plug for power but the fence is charged about once every second for about 6000 volts. I don’t know if that is AC or DC volts.
Question:	Does this unit provide a pulse-surge or a constant electrical shock
Answer:	This energizer has a pulsating output.

Product description

Protect your animals with the Zareba 25 Mile AC Low Impedance Fence Charger. This powerful 1-joule energizer controls a variety of animals, from rabbits and pigs, to horses and cattle. Besides keeping livestock in it will also help to keep predators out. The 25 Mile Charger will power through heavy weeds with its strong output, although a well-kept fence line is ideal. Extreme vegetation and poly products will reduce the overall power of the fence energizer. The more material along the fence line, the harder the energizer must work to pass voltage through the line. This UL-listed energizer will plug into any standard, 2-prong electrical outlet and should be protected from the elements. Built in the USA, this energizer is tested with a full load at our manufacturing facility and comes with a 2-Year Limited Warranty which includes damage from lightning.

• Energizes up to 25 miles of fence
• Works in heavy weed conditions
• 1 joule output at 75 ohms
• Built in USA Full load tested in the U.S. after manufacturing
• UL Listed, fuseless design
• 2 Year Limited Warranty including lightning damage

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this strong enough to kill rats? I want to mount this on my privacy fence to stop rats coming over the brick wall from my neighbors yard
Answer:	This energizer is a pulsating unit. When an animal comes in contact with the hot wire, they will be able to break away and run free during the off pulse. It is not designed to kill animals.
Question:	Will this charger work on raccoons? Can it be used on a net laying on the ground or does it have to be suspended off the ground
Answer:	This charger can be used to deter raccoons. Electric fencing is not able to be placed directly on the ground as it will short out the fence line.
Question:	If an animal gets stuck in the wire will it shut or cut off so it wont kill it
Answer:	This unit is a pulsating energizer, which means voltage does not continually flow through the wire but rather pulsates. The animal would have an opportunity to break free.
Question:	Can this be mounted outside, un-protected from the elements
Answer:	No. All of our AC-powered chargers must be mounted inside or in a waterproof enclosure.
