[QUOTE="Lee VanRoss, post: 1767897, member: 40072"] Murray, No need to go [I]jouleistic! [/I]Unless you are fencing cape buffalo or bison or something of that nature 64 joules might be overkill. I see Cyclops has 'Brute' (8 joule) listed in mid $350's no shipping. If well grounded you will hear the hallelujah choir if get into it. If that is not enough the Cyclops 'Super' (12 joule) will run you in the 5's and is more than adequate. I know from experience a Cyclops Brute will kill a turkey if they try to hop a fence and get a wing hung up on the wire. /////// Note of caution////// When you do get a fencer be sure to install a lightning arrester to protect your investment. Also if you do not have one a directional fault finder is a good investment, It will show not only the joules in the line but the direction of source of short or resistance.
