Premier HotShock 5 Energizer
A low-cost 0.5 joule low-impedance electric fence charger which is recommended for temporary, short-length fences for sheep, goats, poultry and wildlife. Also temporary medium-length or permanent short-length fences for cattle and horses.
Common Uses
Use to keep out deer, raccoons and rabbits from garden/orchard areas and keep in poultry, cattle, sheep, goats, horses, and guard dogs. Effective at protecting against coyotes, stray dogs, bear and fox.
- For temporary, short-length fences for sheep, goats, poultry and wildlife
- For temporary, medium-length fences for cattle and horses
- For permanent, short-length fences for cattle and horses
Should Power**
- 1 mile of 3 strand cattle fence
- 1/2 mile of a 5-7 strand sheep fence
- 6 rolls of 164' sheep/goat nets
- 3 rolls of 164' poultry nets
**All distances are dependent on amount of grass/weed load on the fence. Low-impedance circuitry produces a short, very strong electrical pulse designed to cope with moderate weed load.
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 46 milliampere (mA) per hour. With this energizer a 12V, 100 ampere hour deep-cycle battery will last approximately 54 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.)
Installation
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.
Battery Unit
- Attach wiring harness.
- Attach the bare end of the wire with the red clip to the fence terminal. Attach the red clip to the fence.
- Attach the bare end of the wire with the black clip to the ground terminal. Attach black clip to the ground rod(s).
- Attach red clip from the adapter to the red “+” terminal of the battery.
- Attach black clip from the adapter to the black “–” terminal of the battery.
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.

In service for 4 weeks now and seems to mildly deter squirrel problem for now. Need to read the fine print is meant to be housed indooors and can not be left outdoors unprotected. Used this to energize 1 in poly tape on 120 ft of top rail on top of 2x4 rail of fence. Mild pulsed shock is enough to deter all except the most determined squirrels after tangerine, avacado, and apricot trees inside my yard.

Using with 20" garden netting, works wonderfully. Nice bright light so you can see from a distance that it's on.
