Plug-in Energizers are the best choice where you have reliable power. Plug in/Battery Powered Energizers like Gallagher SmartPower MBX Energizers combine the advantages of power with a battery backup. These Energizers are a practical choice for providing guaranteed animal control and are a must in regions where electricity is unreliable.

Permanent battery or solar powered Energizers are the logical choice for remote areas where there is no electricity. A solar panel charges a battery by converting light into electricity to operate a battery powered Energizer - that operates day, night or during periods of low sunlight.

Gallagher PowerPlus portable solar Energizers have a built-in solar panel and provide an ideal all-in-one solution for lifestyle farmers who want a simple, efficient and cost-effective system to power their fences. They are ideal for strip grazing.

Portable Energizers are generally operated by a 12 volt deep cycle rechargeable battery.

B10 and B11 strip grazers are designed for single reel systems and can be operated by six "D" size (LR20) batteries or a 12 volt rechargeable battery. Batteries need to be recharged. So choose a battery that withstands regular charge and discharge cycles without damage - such as a marine or deep cycle type. We do not recommend using automotive batteries which are designed to supply very high current for only a short time.
