[QUOTE="BigBear56, post: 1645440, member: 38461"] So My feeders are walking right through my temp galvanized fence and getting in with the brood cows. None are getting out of the perimeter but it’s been annoying to say the least. I walked the entire fence line and found nothing touching a hot wire. Now it’s been really dry here lately so I added another 8’ galvanized ground rod about 12’ from the other 8’ ground rod (2 total). I have a 2 joule charger. The charger snaps but the light doesn’t flash. I tried 2 different chargers I have with the same result. Power from the outlet is good. I know I’m probably short a ground rod (should have 3 8’ rods total 10’ apart) but this has not happened in the 6 years I’ve had my charger hooked up. It has to be a grounding issue right? Should I be twisting together the jumpers from rod to rod? What am I missing?!?!? [/QUOTE]
