I don't think they kill, otherwise dead cows, horses... but it does have a 20 mile fence range and burns through weeds and grass. Hmm.

maybe the owner is still lying on the floor waiting to be discovered - with his working charger!!

What ever happened with this electric fence box?

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

i have seen the age BS a few times recently, it's jewtube's AI algorythm applying it based on the descriptions.
unfortunatly in this case the description includes the word "suicide"

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

All three, Bigclive, DiodeGoneWild, and ElectroBoom have nutty videos...

That second one clip has an age restriction on it too. I'm going to pass on it though I thought I seen it before (meaning, the restriction was added later or this was an edit to an old version.) Same reason for passing: no need for even more pinpointed tracking...

not bad,
but you also need this guy.

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

No, no no...We don't need Bigclive to test one. We need ElectroBOOM to test one

oh dear, oh dear, was not aware of this guy, I'm still crying from laughter:

and definitely feel a lot better about my mishaps thus far

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

not testing it fully then?

I'm trying to find the right HTML tags to wire it to this thread using PoE (power over ethernet , anyone posting should feel some jolt depending on their distance from the main servers

PS: Yeah, Internet is not the same as Ethernet, darn, it could work you know if you didn't point that out!!!

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

a spark should jump across the electrodes when its working . best test is set up in the field and touch the fence .

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

and on a related subject, how do you intend to test this device?

good question:

test1: see if NEON yellow light turns ON.

test2: measure Volt difference between the two external rods.

test3: short them for a split second?? like this maybe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ncPc8iNmyU

test4: take it to the fence and hook to wires, and see if it works

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

Keep in mind, 600KΩ is near the resistance of sweaty human fingertips from hand to hand, and that's why it's dangerous to touch live voltages...

If u ask me, it's also dangerous touching a failed resistor; why? b/c I've just embarrassed myself

You probably know the rest, but I'll spell it out for those interested!!

I was measuring my own "sweaty hands" as was struggling to make good contacts with the loose resistor now re-testing over and over, it is OL for sure, no nothing, just ===dead=== cut wire or burnt or something..

Thanks for the remark, learning a lot

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

Probably safer to replace one at a time since you're dealing with not-exact matches.

Anyway no point in replacing the other resistor - resistors usually aren't 'wear' items unlike capacitors...

I was thinking to keep things more 'in balance', but I'll go with that and replace just one with 350 Ohm and see if that works. at this point it's also for educational purposes, sure can order, but that will take few days, until then, folks here are eager to see it work again, farmers are lovely people you know

I think tomorrow we'll know

Thanks folks!!

BTW: tested the existing/good shows exactly 360 Ohm, the bad one, shows upwards to 600K Ohm, and sometimes 1M Ohm, and sometimes OL so, it's bad

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

RJ already done the research for you and found the resistor for you so why not order two of them and just replace them.

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

found another with 350 Ohm / 10W, i think that is close enough to try replacing both

[stormy1777]

Re: Repair Fence Energizer SS-1000E Fi-Shock

smash the faulty one open and check, they arent always wirewound.

OK, took the advice, and it seems like wirewound. Searching I've found THREE very similar resistors, pair of 470 Ohm 390Ohm, 330 Ohm, all 10W, the question is it going to work with either one? probably not want to mix the existing 360 Ohm...

any thoughts welcomed, that would be an instant fix, no need to ship anything
