The Hotline Hobby 12v Energiser is a very flexible all-round unit. Good for general farm use, horse fencing and protecting pheasant and poultry pens.

This energiser will power up to 5 sheep nets or 2 poultry nets, or up to 6 km of wire or tape.

The Hobby is powered by a 12v rechargeable leisure battery (link below), which we would always advise you use in preference to a car battery. A 12v 85 amp/hr Leisure Battery would last for approx 9 weeks between charges, depending on use.

This unit has its own metal stand but we would recommend a 1 m earth stake with any 12v unit.

The LED will flash green when the unit is working correctly, but will change to red when the battery requires re-charging. A buzzer will sound if the battery terminals are connected incorrectly.

There is a 2 year warranty on all Hotline energisers.

This 85 amp/hr, re-chargeable 12v Leisure Battery comes with a built-in charge level indicator and carry handle. It also has double terminals so it can take a trickle charge whilst being used. Heavt Duty battery for leisure and marine use.

For use with any 12v Electric Fence Battery Energiser e.g. Hotline Hobby Energiser, Hotline Gemini, Gallagher BatteryMaster, Wolseley Midge etc.

We always recommend the use of leisure-type batteries with electric fencing. They are designed to be discharged and then re-charged whereas car batteries are not. This battery should have a life of 200 cycles so will last quite a number of years.

Although a charge will last approx 6 weeks we do recommend that they are recharged every 2 weeks or so to keep the battery in best condition. This battery has a depth of discharge of 70% and we have found that if allowed to discharge fully it could damage the plates and it will be very hard to get it to take a full charge properly again. Also, we do recommend with this battery that at least a 7 amp battery charger be used if possible.
