Customer Reviews
It worked the moment I hooked it up, so easy to use, I will be getting another one in the near future. I have used all the top brands in electric fences and this has been the best in as far as set up, no fiddling around and works straight away.
Kellie
I had a unit for the past 15 years and it simply died. This updated model seems better and is keeping our horses off the fence. Very happy with it.
Peter
This is my 5th unit the oldest is about 6 years old. All are in excellent working condition. A couple of years ago I return one of the units for repair by post. To my delight it was returned 6 days latter @ no cost to me.
Mike
I bought one of these about 16 years ago and it has finally given up the ghost which is why I have bought the same again. They are a great bit of gear and have been brilliant to use with my horses.

Antitheft system is also a great idea. Has everything you need.Read More9 years agoReviewed byE Maynes00The one I already have has worked reliably so far.I like it but I don't love it. [ EDITOR: Thanks for clarifying your "don't love it" comment with Brad this morning. I understand your steel posts are already installed, and when you attach the energiser it is facing south instead of north. The solution, and this is common practice, is to have a dedicate steel post for the energiser. Then you can face the energiser north! Hope it goes well, and good to her you do like it! ]Read More9 years agoReviewed byC Sand00Installed, very happy indeed.I installed my energiser on the weekend and I'm very happy with it.

It certainly stopping my 2 Jack Russells continue digging the tunnels underneath the fences and escaping through the neighbour side. However, it can't stop chickens to get in and eating the veggie gardens. I'm guessing probably because they all have thick feathers and scales on the feet and legs (but at least they don't escape from my property like those two dogs). I did accidentally stunk on those fences a few times. So, I know they 100% work. Thank you to Brad as well for his promptly phone call after I placed the order. I'm certainly satisfied your products and services.Read More9 years agoReviewed byA Heilbronn00Horse stays put now.We are extremely happy with our purchase so far, fast and friendly service with what I believe is a high quality solar system pack that hasn't let me down yet, the horse hasn't gotten out at all which for us is very important being on a flood effected property with minimal safe paddock room.Read More9 years agoReviewed byJ Van Gameren00Terrific, just what needed.The unit is terrific!
