  Solar fence charger recommendatins

Consider the number of strands you will run for the fence (electrified) and multiply by the perimeter distance, then buy a charger appropriate for that distance. Solar versions are about $130. Depending on the amount of sunshine you get you may need additional batteries. Plan to spend an additional $2 to 3 hundred for batteries, insulators, lightning arrestors, gate handles and specialty posts, wire appropriate for electric fencing etc.

I get most of my e-fence stuff at TSC

  Solar fence charger recommendatins

This all adds up, Murfs suggestion of 4 rows with 4 strands each works out to 2.7 miles of fence, assuming 208.75 feet for a side of the innermost fence. Say you have one insulator every 12 feet, that's 1177 insulators, at 25 insulators in a bag that's 47 bags and at $4 per bag you are at $188 ,just in insulators. For that distance wire will run you $ 170, if you decide to use tape expect to pay $425. As you can see the cost of the charger quickly fades into obscurity. As suggested this project will easily cost you over $1000.
