    Energiser Spotlight - Gemini Range

    The Gemini range of dual-input energisers remains a constant bestseller for good reason - compact and straightforward to use, these energisers give a serious zap despite their size! Their versatility means that they are suited to a wide range of applications and feature in a number of our ready-to-go kits

    The Gemini is a dual-powered or combination energiser – but what does this mean?  All three energisers in the range can be powered by either a 12v battery or from a mains power supply.

  4. Are Electric Fences Safe To Use?

    This is a blog post about whether electric fences are safe to use, and things we need to consider when installing them.

    Is an electric fence dangerous?

    One of the main concerns our customers who are completely new to electric fencing have is the question of whether electric fencing is actually safe to use, often in a domestic setting to deter unwanted visitors, but also to keep livestock within a specified area.

    How do you transfer power from a perimeter electric fence to a strip grazing fence?
