IntelliShock 10 Energizer
This 1 joule unit automatically adjusts battery draw down by as much as 67% if the fence isn’t touching green weeds or shorted out (e.g. 1 or 2 strand horse, cattle, anti-deer fences; also most fences during the winter or when grass is dormant). The need to recharge a battery is therefore much less in these seasons or situations.
Includes connections to run as either a 110V plug-in or 12V battery (replacements sold separately under the accessories tab).

Should power**
- 2 miles of 3 strand cattle fence
- 3/4 mile of a 5-7 strand sheep fence
- 10 of the 164' sheep/goat nets
- 4-5 of the 164' poultry nets
Miscellaneous
- Requires a grounding system. Inadequate grounding is the most common failure in an electric fence system. We recommend 3 ft. of grounding for this energizer.
- 12V battery draw is 31-90 milliampere (mA) per hour. With this energizer a 12V, 100 ampere hour deep-cycle battery will last approximately 27 (on a weedy fence) and 80 (on a clean fence) days. (Assumes 40% drawn down between charges.)
- To operate as a solar energizer, run the unit as a battery unit (DC) and attach a solar panel to charge the battery. (10 watt panel recommended.)

Benefits
Installation
To use the energizer as a plug-in unit:
The energizer can be mounted either inside or outside of a building, but not where there is risk of fire. The energizer must be mounted vertically. Protect the energizer from direct rainfall.- Connect an insulated cable (stripped back 1 - 2" on ends) to the fence terminal on energizer, run the cable to the fence line and connect, or use the positive part of the wiring harness.
- Then run a second length of cable from the ground terminal (with ends stripped again) on the energizer to the ground rod(s), or use the negative part of the wiring harness.
- Secure to ground rod(s) with a clamp.
- Plug the energizer directly into an outlet and test fence. Do not use an extension cord as it may cause a decrease in voltage and expose the unit to the elements.
To use the energizer as a battery unit:
- Attach wiring harness to energizer.
- Attach the bare end of the wire with the red clip to the fence terminal of the energizer. Attach the red alligator clip to the fence.
- Attach the bare end of the wire with the black clip to the ground terminal of the energizer. Attach black alligator clip to the ground rod(s).
- Connect the energizer to the battery.
- Insert battery adapter into the energizer. Attach red alligator clip from the adapter to the red “+” terminal of the battery.
- Attach black alligator clip from the adapter to the black “–” terminal of the battery.
Unit indicator light should flash and a tic-tac sound will be heard. If the indicator light doesn't flash, then the unit/battery should be checked.
Precautions
To Reduce Risk & Liability
- Never place your head or upper spine near an electrified wire. Accidental head or neck contact can occur when pushing a voltage probe into the soil. Be careful when doing so to avoid head-to-wire contact!
- Never attempt to step over or climb through an energized fence of any kind.
- Never encourage anyone to touch an electric fence.
Troubleshooting
Start by measuring the voltage at the end of the fence line. If the voltage is below 3000V, follow these steps to determine if the problem is with the fence, or the energizer.
Test the energizer first!
- Turn off the energizer.
- Disconnect the wires going to the fence and ground stake/rod.
- Turn the energizer back on.
- Measure the voltage on the energizer between the two terminals (positive and negative) with a digital voltmeter or other high-voltage tester. Touch one end to “-“ (earth terminal) and the other end to “+” (fence terminal). The reading tells you how well the energizer is working without any other variables.
- If the tester reads below 5000V, then the energizer (or possibly the battery) is the problem. If the voltage is above 5000V, then the trouble lies with your fence.
If the energizer is at fault:
- Test the battery with a low-voltage tester; recharge if lower than 12.2 volts
- Check the grounding system
If the fence is at fault:
- Conductors touching another wire, steel post or the soil
- Broken or damaged insulators

Fairly easy to install for a novice. The customer service reps were very helpful both times we called. I do think the ground rod should have come with a clamp to save a trip to Home Depot.

I've only had this installed half a week but it seems great. After I got a seven foot ground rod installed it is charging two rolls of net fence with as high a voltage as my fence tester can register. I wouldn't want to be the coyote that places his nose on that fence!
David H from Florida
Getting great charge to the fence. I like that the back is removable if it ever needs to be repaired down the road. Also comes with everything you need to connect to the fence/battery/etc.
