The
Gemini 80 energiser is a more powerful energiser for electric
fencing
than its smaller sibling, the Gemini 40. It is the perfect addition
to
the poultry kits we
supply to get the current flowing through your fencing. Simply plug
the
energiser into the mains or hook it up to a leisure battery (see
below)
and your poultry kit becomes a fully functioning protector of your
poultry.
How does it work?
Your
poultry
net can be electrified with this
Gemini 80 energiser. You can run it from the mains or from a battery
as follows:
- Mains: The energizer comes with a lead that connects the
energiser to
the mains via a normal three square pin plug.
This is the most reliable source of power to your electric
fence, but the mains supply needs to be kept in a dry
environment.
- Alternatively,
connect the energiser to a 12V rechargeable leisure
battery. These are like car
batteries, but whereas a car battery is designed to give a
short-lived
burst of high energy to start a car, a leisure battery gives a
longer-lasting charge of low energy to keep your electric
fencing live. They can
be bought from motoring shops (e.g Halfords) or you can buy them
from camping or agricultural
stores.
If you plan to locate your energiser away from your electric fence
then you will need an
HT
Lead Out Cable
(insulated cable for
outdoor use), which connects your energiser to your netting and
carries the charge.
N.b. You will
need to buy the HT Lead Out Cable and battery separately.
Safety
The energiser
must be housed
indoors when connected to the mains like all similar charge
devices. However, it is weatherproof and suitable for connection
outdoors to a leisure battery.
Suitability
- The energiser will charge up to 12km of electric netting
- It can be wall mounted, mounted on a stake, or on an earth
stake (provided with some models of poultry kit)
- Stores 1.2 Joules of charge and outputs 0.8 Joules
- Output voltage 8.2kV (or 4.2kV under heavy load)
- Gives a battery (not supplied) life of up to 4 weeks assuming
85Ah battery
- Power consumption: 1.6W
Whatever
birds you keep as pets, or farm for eggs and meat, they need
protecting. The energiser to accompany your Poultry Netting
gives your animals enough space to
roam
freely and away from predators. The Gemini 80 energiser is
part of the Gemini family.
