[QUOTE="fenceman, post: 1243416, member: 23460"] Very good advice for perimeter fence and permanent pasture fence. You wouldn't believe how anal people can be about breeds,feed,mineral,vaccination,etc. Then surround the hole thing with a sorry fence.electric is great for temporary fence or reinforcement of permanent fence. Are you using solar ? I am currently using parmak, and am happy with them. I have three 2 12 volts and 1 6 volt. Oldest one is about 2 years old. I have used zareba solar and it lasted abou 3 years. I carried it around on flatbed quite a bit so it had a pretty rough life. Ive installed the gallagher for a couple of customers, didnt think much of it cheap and cheesy made. The biggest cause early failure is lighting. Use lighting arrestors and try to unhook both wires before big storms. Also its common to hang temporary fence chargers on a permanent fence when cutting a pasture. I do it all the time. Your at risk of lightning strike damage from permanent fence when you do. [/QUOTE]
