We bought this to replace a similar product from our local feed store.
This does great at containing all our animals. We have goats, dogs and wild prey (primary use) , chickens & ducks (secondary use). Our goats stay contained as well as the dogs, they don't stick their noses through the fence any more and as for wild prey that tries to get in well THEY DON'T ANY MORE!! We ran a top and bottom wire along the containment fence for the wild life that liked to come over and kill our livestock and we've not had any issues with this for 5 months!! After loosing a set of baby goats this past spring and $400 worth of chickens and ducks we now have a new set and they are doing well because of this charger!! I also ran some around our home gardening area and the chickens have learned to stay out and we've not had any rabbits or deer come around eating up our crops!!
As for the dogs we ran a top wire along the fence line and they don't jump up on the fence any more stretching it out of shape.
I would highly recommend this to any one who keeps the fencing within the recommended area of 5 miles or under.
Once animals get used to the 'tingle' and believe me it's a good 'tingle' they learn to stay off of the fencing. We installed extra ground rods along the fence line to increase/keep the shock factor up to a good 'warning' jolt.

I have 2 horses & a pony. My "old" fence charger was way better. when I tested it, it would lite up ALL the lights. This charger will only light up 1 light and flash the next light. My "old" charger when it was broken or touching a pole popped and my horse's would NOT go near it. They feared my old charger. I only have maybe a mile of single strand fence. Very disappointed.

| Dear Horse Rider,
Thank you for taking the time to submit an online review for the Zareba® 5 Mile AC Solid State Charger (Model # A5). We are sorry to hear about your disappointment with the charger and appreciate your feedback. The Zareba® 5 Mile AC Solid State Charger has an average voltage output of 2,600 volts when tested no load. The voltage can drop to 2,000 volts or less with one wire running at a length of one mile. The recommend voltage output on the fence wire for horse containment is 2,000 – 3,000 volts. It would be suggested that you consider an upgrade to a more powerful charger for your application. The Zareba® EAC25M-Z would be a great fit to suit your needs. The charger is rated for 25 miles and it would provide you the power needed to contain your horses as well as the freedom to expand your fence if your needs should change. We would like to provide you with assistance regarding this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact us at 1-855-5-ZAREBA (1-855-593-7322) so we can help. |
