I use it in a small area to keep the cattle from eating newly planted trees. This my first solar powered unit and my second fence charger from Gallagher. Both work great.

Used in a small fenced in area for horses as needed when I can't hook it into my other wired in fencer system.The shock is slower but it works. Eventually they got the message and avoid the fencing.

I've always been skeptical about solar charges for fencing.This one is fairly inexpensive, but does what it's advertised to do.I bought this for paddock fencing inside my perimeter fence for my cattle.The cattle had never been exposed to electric fence before, but they sure respected the charge from this. Never had any problems. Easy to turn off and on, moves very easily. Has held up all spring and summer with no issues.

We've been using ours for a couple months so far and haven't had any issues with it. It's very easy to set up. We put up a 3D electric fence to keep deer out of our vegetable garden. No deer, opossums, raccoons, or armadillos seem to have made it into our garden yet. Unfortunately, deer have devoured the row of sunflowers by our house. I'm waiting for this to drop back down in price and I'll probably pick up another for a temporary fence around the sunflowers. Make sure you get a ground rod! It won't work without one. A ground rod isn't included but I was able to pick one up from the hardware store for about $6.

It was easy to set up and it worked well for keeping my pigs contained when it wasnt buried under dirt from their rooting.It gives one hell of a shock and this year im going to use it to run electric around my garden an chicken coop. All in all i say it was a good purchase, might be better out there for cheaper but im happy enough to not go looking

We live in a deer super highway, a clearing in the woods between the forest and the river. The deer like to gather and sleep here. The yard is all torn up. Trees regularly get stripped of their bark. But, the gardens, including delicious spring tulips, hostas, lilies, roses, and other tasty treats have not been eaten at all since using this energizer.Used the energizer and 3+ foot some step in stakes to fence off my flower gardens. Goal was to prevent deer and rabbits from ruining the garden.The step in stakes have at least five places to attach wire. i started off with hot wires on the top (1) and bottom levels (5). The deer leaned over it and then left. Found the wire stretched and some footprints inside the garden but nothing eaten.I added two ground wires at the 2 and 4 positions on the stakes. The grounds go back to the grounding stake. When an animal touches the hot and ground, they complete the circuit and get zapped. Since making this improvement, we haven't had a deer get near our gardens.Rabbits are still able to jump between the hot and ground and get into the garden. I haven't seen any appear to get shocked. But, often they just run around the outside. So, i suspect the fence has had some effect on them. To improve my system, I should get a longer grounding rod. Current one is thin and only three feet. The natural soil here is mostly sand and gravel.Will buy another energizer today. Have a bunch of young trees to plant. Need to keep the deer off untl they mature a bit.Definitely recommend the product for deer. Gave it 4 stars because I'd like to see the rabbits once and a while.... But, my inadequate setup may be to blame.

Just an update that might help someone on this last one that I installed. I used the copper grounding rod, again only one Rod needed, versus the Galvanized steel rod that I used on my first fence. The copper gives a better energy to the fence, it gives a better shock. Obviously nothing that’s gonna hurt any of the animals. My horse is terrified of the fence even if there’s not an electric fence charger attached to it. But keeping out other animals, dear raccoons etc. I just feel that the copper rod performs much better.I’ve dabbled with electric fences, both solar and electric over the last few years never being actually very successful due to the multiple rods. I was a little skeptical when I read this one only needed the one grounding rod and that’s it. There’s a wire with a large alligator clip at the end that attaches to the box itself and then it clipped right into the fence. It is true, it does work exactly that way. You need get a grounding rod from Lowe’s or Home Depot pound it into the ground, I did mine with about 4 foot left above the ground, attached the electric fence box, tighten the end to the box onto the pole, screw the nut and wire onto the back of the box, then clip it onto the tape, cord or wire whichever you put up and you have a working electric fence. Quick and easy. I actually just bought a second one for another area on my property that’s very far away. Probably would work but I don’t want to run that much fencing or poles. You have to put it a sunny place just like any other solar items, even when we had about a week of cloudy rainy days it had no problem with holding a charge. It worked every day. I highly recommend this electric fence option

This device is small and solidly built. It is very easy to install and self explanatory.I use it to electrify my chicken netting.I am confident my flock will be contained within the perimeter of the fence. Above all, I am confident this device will protect my flock from ground predators. Around here we have: foxes, coyotes, raccoons, dogs, lynxs and cougars.

When my old Zareba gave up the ghost, I decided to try this Gallagher because of the price, quality, 3 year guarantee and overwhelmingly good reviews. I'm glad I did. It's exceeded my expectations.Setting it up was stupidly easy and it's footprint is so compact it almost blends in with the scenery. Having the ground rod double as a pole to connect the unit to is a stroke of genius. Instead of 2 wires, I only needed to run one. In addition, they supplied a wire that connects directly to the unit on one end with a clamp on the other end, making the connection to my existing fence easy peasy. It's also easy to turn on/off and the blinking light is easy to see, even in full sunlight.I thought at first I had received a faulty unit as I couldn't get it to turn on after 3 days in the sun, but quickly realized I have to hold the button in for a few seconds before the unit powers on.I couldn't be more pleased with this little baby.
