Hotshock N500

This is the updated version of the Hotshock N50 which we have sold for years. It's still the same very powerful mains energiser with TWO output levels and both maintaining a high voltage with that extra 'oomph' where needed.

Essentially it's the big mains unit that has 2 power levels that is the most poular with livestock farmers who just want a big unit with plenty oomph to cope with long runs and hairy beasts.

The lower output is 3 Output Joules & the higher is 5 Output Joules. The running voltage is high in comparison to other models and when taking 500 Ohm resistance into consideration, the shock delivered is more effective with longer coats & horse rugs. Despite this, the running costs are quite low drawing only 9 watts

Effective for fences up to 40Km long if clear of vegetation and suitable for fences of 10Km if there is some growth and we'd recommend using it on the lower setting unless either the fenceline is very long, the foliage quite high or the animal very stubborn.
The series of LED lights on the front has been replaced with a single LED which flashes with every pulse and but this will drop away if there is considerable earthing on the fence letting know there's a problem.

As with all powerful units we recommend using a superior quality / spec of insulator & conduction line as lower/medium spec of components won't have the same insulating properties and damage may occur through arcing. It's best to use with 3 x earth stakes at least 1m in the ground for maximum effectiveness and insulated lead out used should be the larger 2.5mm diameter.

Perfectly suited for the insenstitve animal, long runs or where there can be quite high vegetaion touching the fenceline.

Our Opinion
This has always been the energiser we've used when somthing with a good push behind the zap is required. It's had a makeover, a new sticker put on the front but it's still the one to go for if you want a big mains unit that does the job and has the capability to boost the power if needed. German, solid build quality & 3yr warranty ticks all the boxes.
