Solar Charger and Electronet
Author: Harley Soltes

I am looking for a portable setup for goats trained to ENet already.
I am confused by the solar batter charger listing on the website.
What would a good working battery and solar charger combo be for
goats used to graze brush with 160 feet of Electronet or similar fence?
I would probably buy my battery locally to save shipping such a heavy item.
Thanks.

Our most popular unit for this application would be the Intellishock 20 b.
With solar and battery # 117313 $ 346.00

Thanks. I will take a look. Is that a unit I can buy a local battery or when I need to replace
or for the original? Is there a standard deep cycle size that fits the case?

What kind of length grounding rod will I need to use for that unit with 320 feet
of ElectroNet? Our ground is moderately moist (pacific northwest).

I would hate to drive a 6 footer every time I move the fence.

A small 12 volt motorcycle battery would work.

The 20 b comes with it's own ground rod thart is about a foot long.
This is all that is needed in moist .
