Energizer Output

0.5 Joules* output (0.7 Joules stored)

*The shock strength of energizers is measured in Joules. Our 0.5 Joule energizer represents a powerful shock strength in accordance with bear deterrence guidelines for portable electric fences. Whereas other portable electric fence energizers are usually rated at only 0.05 Joules, which is 10 times less. A very long energizer runtime on batteries usually indicates a low shock strength.

Lightweight Electric Bear Fence Energizer - Bearwatch Systems

Energizer powered by:

  • 8 AA batteries or rechargeable batteries (not included), or;
  • 12 V power source (such as car, ATV or motorcycle battery) using the included alligator cables, or;
  • USB power bank using our USB to 12 V Adapter (add on purchase)

Runtime with AA batteries: up to 5.4 eight-hour-nights (43 hours total run time) - see full runtime details here.

Run time can be increased by bringing extra batteries.

Fast and slow energy modes help to preserve the battery if needed.

Low battery alarm feature lets you know when the batteries have to be replaced. 

The option to setup as a three-hot wire fence or alternating hot-ground-hot wire fence. Alternating hot-ground-hot wire fence greatly improves fence performance in dry ground conditions.

"I really like the fence. It gave us a good sense of comfort. The first night we had a bear walk up to camp and hit the fence while we were sleeping and it ran off."

Larry (Missouri, USA)

"Really like your product! A friend had a different brand and yours was superior in every way."

Peter (Alaska, USA)

“The bear fence worked and saved all our stuff. When we went for a ride yesterday, we were gone for several hours and came back to bear tracks and the fire pit rummaged. The bear didn’t touch the coolers or the tents inside the fence.”

Gayle (Alberta, Canada)

Bearwatch Systems Portable Electric Fence is primarily intended to deter black and brown bears. Our fence (and most portable electric fences) requires suitable terrain to set up where the fence poles can be inserted into the ground and the terrain is a suitable electric ground. Our fence is not recommended for polar bears as semi-permanent or permanent electric fences are usually recommended for polar bears in part due to the difficult terrain they inhabit, whereas Bearwatch System's fences are portable electric fences.
