Fencing the sun?

Easier to rope the moon, no?

Does anyone know for sure?

I have used Zabera,s sold by Tractor Supply, because they were cheap and had a decent warranty. They're definitely at the lower end of the cost range, but have worked in the applications I used them for. I actually need another solar fencer, because I'm getting ready to do some rotation grazing, and will be needing one. Haven't decided whether to go the cheap route, or get a more expensive one.

I hav 3 of those par mak solor fencers...they seem to work good..I run them on several miles of fence..they have pretty good snap...
Only problem is a grounded wire will run the battery dead ...hasn't really been a problem really as the cows respect the wire till it charges back up..
