The 12V Hotline HLB500 (was P500) Falcon battery powered electric fence energiser is a high power fencer for multi-purpose use.
The Falcon energiser is suitable for all farm uses where mains power is unavailable. It is ideal for sheep, (up to 15 electrified sheep nets), protecting crops from rabbit infestation, (up to 10 lengths of electrified rabbit netting), pigs, poultry and cattle (beef and dairy).
The Hotline HLB500 Falcon energiser has two output levels and is powered by a 12V rechargeable leisure battery. The amp/hr rating of the battery will determine the charging interval, for example a 75 amp/hr battery will require charging every 2-3 weeks.
When animals are first introduced to the electric fence the fencing energiser is set to 'high' for about seven days. This allows the animals time to become accustomed to and learn to respect the electric fence line.
As the Falcon energiser is designed to be used on long lengths of electric fencing, an earth stake at least 1m in length must be used. If the animals are being fenced for the first time, the energiser should be set to 'high' for the first week and can then be switched to 'low' after this initial period in order to conserve the battery life. If however, the electric fence is being used to keep animals out of a protected area, the energiser should always be switched to the 'high' output position.
The LED will flash GREEN when the unit is working correctly, but will change to RED when the batter requires re-charging. A buzzer will sound if the battery terminals are connected incorrectly.
Please refer to the section 'Installation of Battery Energisers' in our Guide to understanding modern electric fences for more information on connecting your energiser.
