IntelliShock 20 (Plug-In) Energizer Kit

IntelliShock 20 automatically adjusts battery draw down by as much as 80% if the fence isn’t touching green weeds (e.g 1–2 strand horse, cattle, anti-deer fences; also most fences during the winter or when grass is dormant). Need to recharge battery is therefore much less in these seasons or situations.

IntelliShock 20

• Peak output: 2 joule
• Pulses per minute: 38
• 110 AC draw: 3.3 watt per hour
• 12v DC draw: 32-196 mA/hr. With this energizer a 12v 100 ampere hour, deep cycle battery will last approximately 13 days* on a weedy fence or 78 days* on a clean fence. *Assumes being drawn down to 40% between recharges.
• Includes: 12v battery leads, 110v adapter and wiring harness.
• Impedance type: low
• Should power 2.5 miles of 3 strand cattle fence, 1 mile of a 6 strand sheep fence, 16 of the 164' sheep/goat nets and 6-8 of the 164' poultry nets. All distances are dependent on amount of grass/weed load on the fence.

Kit includes:

• IntelliShock 20 Energizer
• 100 ft insulated wire
• Two 3 ft ground rods and two clamps
• 5-light tester

Versatile. Can be used as a plug-in energizer or as a battery energizer. Adapts from one style to the other in a few seconds. Can be moved around easily. Low cost.

To use the energizer as a plug-in unit:

It 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.

1. 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.
2. Then run a second length of cable from the ground terminal (with ends stripped again) on the energizer to the ground rod, or use the negative part of the Wiring Harness.
3. Secure to ground rod(s) with a clamp.
4. Plug into outlet and test fence.

To use the energizer as a battery unit:

1. Attach wiring harness to energizer.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Connect the energizer to the battery.
5. Insert battery adapter into the Patriot unit. Attach red alligator clip from the adapter to the red “+” terminal of the battery.
6. 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 should be serviced.

To determine if the fault is with the fence or the energizer...

1. Test the energizer first
2. Turn off energizer.
3. Disconnect ground wire and the fence wire.
4. Turn energizer back on.
5. With fence tester, put the ground probe (or clamp) to the ground terminal on the energizer and the metal loop (or positive clamp) at the top of the tester to the fence/positive terminal. The reading you get tells you how well the energizer is working without any other variables. If there is a very low voltage (under 4000v) or no voltage, then the energizer may have a problem. If the voltage is high (greater than 4000v) then the trouble lies with your fence. Most energizers put out between 5000v and 8000v when there is no load (i.e. no fence hooked up).

If the energizer is faulty and you're using it as a 110 volt plug-in unit...

1. Check that the 110v outlet is "live" by using a plug-in drill or test light.
2. If the test light works and the energizer does not, call Premier.

If the energizer is faulty and you are using it as a battery unit you need to learn if the battery or the energizer is the problem…

1. If it's a 12 volt energizer carry the unit to a nearby vehicle and attach the input cords carefully to the vehicle's battery.
2. If the energizer now works, then your fencer's battery needs to be recharged or replaced.
3. If the energizer does not work, then you should call Premier re. repairs.

If the fence is at fault, then you must find the fault(s) and fix them. Here's how to start this process:
If you have a Fault Finder you can simply touch the fence with the Fault Finder at various points along the electric fence(s). The Fault Finder will tell you at each point which direction to go in to locate the problem. Move in that direction testing as you go and you will arrive at the problem.

If you lack a Fault Finder…

1. Walk or drive along the fence looking for any point in which the energized wires touch the soil, a steel post or a steel wire. On HT wire fences, check the wires at braces to see if they are touching a hot wire. On netting, look for a hot wire touching the metal stake at the bottom of the plastic posts. Also look for damaged insulators.
2. If the fence can be separated into several parts (by switches or by disconnecting parts of it), you can locate the problem by beginning at the far end and then progressively turn off or disconnect the sections of fence. When the voltage on the remaining fence rises sharply, you've located the section(s) that's causing the problems.
3. The alternative to (2.) is to begin at the fencer and progressively turn on sections of the fence. When the voltage suddenly drops you can assume that the problem is in the section most recently connected.

2-Year Warranty

When you buy an energizer from Premier, you purchase more than an energizer. You obtain these benefits:

1. If an energizer fails within 2 years of its date of purchase, we will replace the failed module or unit at our cost. Your credit card will be charged for the replacement but you will receive full credit when the failed item is back at Premier. Your only cost is shipping the failed item to us. If the original energizer is over 2 years old, we will repair it, but you pay for the repair cost and freight.
   Note: Policy does not apply to failure due to abuse or neglect.
   Warranty does not cover batteries.
   
2. Free next-day air shipment of warranty replacement energizers. A unit can be shipped by 11 a.m. Central Time to be received the next day. (Calls on Friday after 11 a.m. will ship Monday.)
   If you think your energizer has failed, call us at 1-800-282-6631. We’ll help you test your energizer to ensure that it has truly failed. This is important because we’ve found that 25% of the units returned to us work fine. The fence was at fault, not the energizer.
   
3. Free technical support. We provide free advice before you purchase an energizer and free support afterwards for as long as you wish. This applies to energizer repair issues as well. If you are not sure how to replace/repair a module, we will “walk” you step-by-step through the process over the telephone.
   
4. Solar energizer packages. With larger energizers (over 1 joule), the panel, battery and energizer need to be correctly sized for each situation. Call us and talk to our consultants.
   
5. Five-year assurance against energizer obsolescence. Premier’s “contract” with our customers includes repair or replacement of any nonworking units for up to 5 years whether the unit is “obsolete” or not. During the 2-year warranty period, Premier pays for the replacement cost.
