Testing Your Fence
To ensure your fence is operating properly, and your animals are contained safely, it is important to test your fence regularly. Using a Zareba Systems Electric Fence Tester you can measure fence line and fence charger voltage.
Lightning And Power Surge Protection
Lightning is often the cause of fence charger failure. To prolong the life of your charger consider the following:
- Disconnect the charger from the power source when storms are near
- Install a lightning diverter/arrestor to divert lightning to the earth
- Use a lightning choke to dissipate power surges caused by lightning

I have a 193 pound Saint Bernard who was jumping on a fence and wreaking havoc. I installed this at the top of the fence (~800ft). It corrected his behavior after a few shocks.

This little charger works like a champ!Super easy to use (especially if you rent an electric ground rod driver). Keeps our chickens safe from all the bobcats, coyotes, bears, and Bigfoot.All at a much better price than I could find.

Not super powerful, works great for controlling small animals- doesn't poke too bad! I bought for minihorses, and it let's them know it's there, although wouldn't trust it would keep in a large animal

Last summer the unit worked OK and keeping Deer out of the garden.I stored the unit indoors for the winter.Set it up for use this summer and the unit didn't work. Battery is OK.It appears the output transformer failed. Looks like I'm out $140...

I like that it does not have to be protected from the weather. I am using it to keep my two horses out of part of the pasture so the grass can have a chance to grow.

So powerful and so easy to install. Literally took 2 minutes. Put screw in wooden fence post, attached fencer, attached 2 ends of fence wire and turned button on! Been through 6-7 heavy rain storms. Battery already inside. You just have to charge it for a day. So just set it up anywhere you have sun a day before you want to install and let it charge up

If you bought this charger to keep deer out of your garden only to find out when you received it that it is not recommended for deer(like me) and further found out that it is not returnable(like me), take heart - all is not lost. Nowhere in its ad (that I could find) does it say "not for deer" ; only says it is for small animals. The only place it does say not for deer is in the multiple pics provided in the ad. Unless you have scrolled thru every one of these you would never know. It also disingenuously shows a pic of sheep...similar in size to deer. Misleading I would say.Since I now owned it I was determined to make the best of a bad situation and here is how to do that.Do NOT scrimp on the grounding procedures but rather go beyond what they recommend. Your house's electrical system is undoubtedly grounded with a huge copper stake and copper wire. I used the same. My fence wire is ALUMINUM..critical for its superior conductivity over stainless steel. My run is as short as I could make it, charging only one outer strand on my 3d fence and cutting off the excess. I cut everything down in terms of grass or weeds from touching the fence. Use good cinching metal connectors and not just wrapping wire around wire. Electricity hates air between wires. Leave your charger turned off during the day if possible to get the best charge and point it primarily west to get full afternoon and evening sun. I did all these things and the shock I get touching the wire even with running shoes on is so uncomfortable that I can only stand to receive one pulse of energy and have to jerk my finger away. Deer test things by smell and they get the same treatment only on their nose(usually). I have only had my charger in operation for 3 days but so far have had NO deer incursions. Is this due to my 3d fence setup or my outer charged wire? Who knows? Will update.

bought this for my domestic pig (100+pounds) and boy should i have installed this 10 years ago when i first got him. would have saved myself a hundred headaches!!!installed it on wooden pickets with the insulating rings, bought the zareba poly wire and grounded it with some old stripped copper electrical wire.big baby tried it twice and understood. haven't had a single espace attempt since!i was scared for the dog (miniature bull terrier) since she's much smaller , 50 pounds, she caught it once and she also got the message loud and clear.i expect nothing but good results from now on if i trim the weeds regularly

I like the fact that when the deer stuck his head through the fence he left immediately.
