Zareba 2 Mile Solar-Powered Electric Fence Charger

The Energizer You Need for Your Garden and Flowerbeds

Use the Zareba 2 Mile Solar-Powered Electric Charger to keep small animals and pets out of your garden and away from restricted areas of your property. For farmers, it’s perfect for containing poultry and protecting them from predators when used with the right fencing. Since this low-impedance charger is solar-powered, it does not need to be located near an outlet. Use its built-in handle to move it around your property whenever you need to protect a new area.

Solar-Powered Fencing

For many property owners, the best option for an electric fence charger is solar, which allows you to operate a fence in remote areas that aren’t close to an electrical outlet. A fully charged solar energizer can last two weeks without any sun exposure.

Options for Your Fence

This energizer is interchangeable with any electric fence line – wire, polyrope, polytape or polywire. Just mount this energizer on a wood post or set it on a flat surface, then hook it up and its ready to deliver the animal control solution you need.

Garden Solutions

If animals are wrecking your garden or flowerbeds by digging holes or devouring your plants, then an electric fence is the solution. A simple electric fence system can keep out some of the most troublesome animals – one zap and they never return.

Animals Controlled

Poultry

If you’ve got chickens to protect, then this energizer offers just the right amount of shocking power to keep them inside the space you’ve provided.

Pest Animals

Are critters ravaging your garden? This energizer is just right for the electric fence used to protect your plants from rabbits, skunks, groundhogs and more.

Pets

Another problem for gardens and flowerbeds are cats and dogs that aim to do their business in areas they shouldn’t. With this energizer, they’ll learn their lesson!

Testing Your Fence

To ensure your fence is operating properly, and your animals are contained safely, it is important to test your fence regularly. Using a Zareba Systems Electric Fence Tester you can measure fence line and fence charger voltage.

Lightning And Power Surge Protection

Lightning is often the cause of fence charger failure. To prolong the life of your charger consider the following:

  • Disconnect the charger from the power source when storms are near
  • Install a lightning diverter/arrestor to divert lightning to the earth
  • Use a lightning choke to dissipate power surges caused by lightning
