  • 4-5 of the 164' poultry nets.
    • All distances are dependent on amount of grass/weed load on the fence.


Can be used as a solar energizer

  • See options under accessories tab above.

Benefits
  • 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.
  • Easily moved around.
  • Quickly mounts to a wall or fence post.
  • The decision is yours as to pulse rate and battery consumption based on your needs.

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.
  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(s), or use the negative part of the wiring harness.
  3. Secure to ground rod(s) with a clamp.
  4. 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:
  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 green clip to the ground terminal of the energizer. Attach green alligator clip to the ground rod(s).
  4. Connect the energizer to the battery.
  5. Insert battery adapter into the energizer. 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/battery should be checked.

Precautions
When working on the fence, make sure the energizer is turned off before working on the fence or the energizer.

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
To determine if the fault is with the fence or the energizer...
  1. To check—first turn off the energizer.
  2. Then disconnect the wires going to the fence and ground rod system.
  3. Turn the energizer back on.
  4. Then measure the voltage on the energizer between the 2 terminals (fence and earth) with a Digital Fence Voltmeter or other fence testing device. Touch one end to “–” earth terminal and the other end to “+” fence terminal.
  5. If the tester reads under 4000v, the energizer (or possibly the battery if it’s a battery/solar energizer) is the problem.
  6. If the tester reads more than 4000 volts, the energizer is working properly and the fence is the problem.

    7. 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 are using the Speedrite 1000 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 the Speedrite 1000 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.

Speedrite 1000 Energizer
★ ★ ★ ★ ★

This energizer is a great value, and has all the leads to connect it to the fence, ground and power source. I love that it is ac/dc so you can use it multiple ways. I currently have two and will be buying more in the future.

I bought several items from this seller; all were great! Everything was as advertised. Fast shipping, and they kept me informed when it was expected to arrive.

We have some of the worst soil in the world to get a good ground in and this charger just doesn't care, it has a charge that will knock your socks off. We have 2 of them, one running goats and mesh and one running line for cows and horses and while we haven't had them all that long (2 weeks), we are super impressed with how easy they are, all the ways we can use them(one is on a battery, the other is on an electric cord) with many options and features. As long as these guys don't die of unexplained causes, you will probably always find these around our farm.

I have bought 3 of these Speedrite 1000 Energizer. I gave 2 of them to our grown children to use on their farms. I use mine on the electric netting so it doesn't drag down my perimeter fences. I really like being able to use it as AC or DC. All of the parts come with it so you don't have to buy extra parts. Very easy to hook-up. Works great with our horses, sheep, and chickens.

Having owned a "plug-in" Speedrite in the past with tremendous results, I knew the Speedrite 1000 was what I needed for my fence. I run two wires along my existing hogwire fence to keep my Anatolian in and others out. It is run off a battery with a solar panel to charge it. Works like a charm. A Speedrite packs a wallop.
