Question by Calamitty: Solar fencer do you have one, and did you notice a savings on your electric bill?
I just bought a solar fencer for my horse, and was wondering if you noticed a decline in your electric bill? I bought it due to the conveince of no electirc cord running my yard all yr, can’t do much about winter for the hot water tank heater, wish they would come up with a solar for that as well.

  1. I have one but the one I was replacing was a battery powered one so it was not plugged in.
    I do not have to buy batteries any more and that is ah uge savings.
    I love the sloar powered one.
    A solar powered tank heater would be great

  2. I don’t use solar because they are so expensive! But have always had electric. My electric bill has not changed since using it. No increase at all! But I did with the tank heaters! Ouch! So I don’t use them anymore,..now I man power the ice out..every day during the winter I carry water for them and break the ice out of their rubbermaid water containers. More work but saves a lot of $ $ on the electric bill!
