With the American Farm Works 0.04-Joule 2-Mile Solar-Powered Electric Fence Energizer, your fence line can have power from anywhere - even in remote locations with no access to electricity. This fence charger runs up to 2 weeks, day and night, without sunlight and is powered by an internal rechargeable battery. With 0.04 output joules, this fence energizer supports a variety of animals and livestock, such as cattle, horses, pigs and goats, and can be used with all types of electric fencing wire. It energizes up to 2 miles of fencing, and the season guide will help you choose the perfect angle to maximize sunlight. A durable case helps protect this reliable energizer against the elements. To prepare your new solar-powered electric fence charger for first use, place the unit in full sun for 3 days in the off position. After this charging period, the unit is ready to use and install. Built in the USA, our electric fence chargers are tested with a full load at our manufacturing facility and come with a 3-year limited warranty, including damage from lightning. Get yours today to maintain a safe, controlled perimeter.

For additional information on this product, please see the Product Documents section for all downloadable user manuals, installation guides, brochures and warranty statements.

    Q: is it waterproof

    21 days ago
    1 Answer
    • Woodstream Team
      A: This energizer isn't rated or marketed as waterproof — it doesn't carry an official IP (waterproof) rating. It does have a weather-resistant cabinet that protects the internal circuitry from the elements, so it's designed to handle normal outdoor conditions like rain. That said, avoid submerging it or spraying it directly with high-pressure water, since it's weather-resistant rather than fully waterproof.

    Q: Re: solar system, I usually turn-off system each day. Of course this allows me access to work in the garden. Does turning off during the day also benefit the system - that is by fully recharging battery and extending serviceable life?

    • Woodstream Team
      A: Thank you for contacting us. Regarding your question, there is no need to turn it off solely for battery maintenance if the fence is being used; the key is to keep the solar panel in full sunlight and allow the battery to maintain a good charge.

    Q: Why isn’t it marked On AND Off? Such a simple thing to do. Why isn’t there a manual in the box or one specific to this unit?

    2 months ago
    2 Answers
    • Woodstream Team
      A: Hi there! Thanks for reaching out, and we understand how frustrating it can be when the switch and instructions aren’t clearly marked. For this solar fence controller, the right side of the switch is the “ON” position. The solar fence controllers are designed to work the same way across the different models, which is why there isn’t a separate manual specifically for each individual unit. We hope this helps clarify how to operate your controller!

    Q: Can this charger be mounted on a t post which would also be used for grounding?

    2 months ago
    2 Answers
    • Woodstream Team
      A: No. While the American Farm Works 0.04 Joule 2 Mile Solar-Powered Electric Fence Energizer can be mounted to a T-post using the appropriate mounting hardware, the T-post should not be used as the grounding system. For proper operation, the energizer should be connected to a dedicated galvanized ground rod installed according to the owner's manual. Using a T-post as the ground can result in poor fence performance and reduced shock output. For the best results, mount the energizer securely and connect the ground terminal to a properly installed galvanized ground rod.

    Good Investment

    8 days ago
    Bought this ten years ago to protect my garden from wildlife, including groundhogs, raccoons and squirrels. I ran the wire one inch from the ground and wrapped it around the fence. Never had a problem. Highly recommend this product. After ten years, it finally needs replaced.

    I cannot get this to work. I put it in the sun for almost a week to charge and nothing. I returned the first thinking it just might have been bad, but the second one is the same. Fence tester is not detecting anything

    Hi there, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear you’re having trouble getting your electric fence controller to work, especially after trying a replacement unit.

    There are several possible reasons why an electric fence tester may not show a reading, including the setup, grounding, connections, fence condition, or charging of the controller. Since there are multiple factors that can affect the reading, we’d like to help troubleshoot the issue with you.

    Please contact us directly at 855-592-7322 so we can assist you with the setup and determine what may be preventing the fence from registering a reading.

    Thank you for giving the product a try, and we hope we can help get your fence working properly.
