[QUOTE="ERNIBIGB, post: 978761, member: 3253"] I have used a few of these for electric fence and found one problem. The ones I used are not very solid in the center (honeycomed?) so I had a problem with weak power on fence and determined that the 20D nail I used to hook the gap handle on went in the post deep enough to contact the moisture that had collected in the center and was killing the power. Took some head scratching to find the problem that day. I couldn't believe a plastic post was shorting out the fence but it was. Fence staples might not go deep enough to cause this but a long nail sure will. [/QUOTE]
