Long story short, I have an electric fence energizer that is battery powered.
I also have a 120 amp hour 12 volt battery that I can attach to the charger and help it deter bears.
Two questions, as I'm not the most informed on batteries:
1) How do I charge the battery, exactly? Do I just hook it up to my car, using a typical jumper cable setup - and turn my car on...and just let it sit there for a half hour or so? 12 volt to 12 volt, that should work right?
2) Once I figure out how to charge my 120 amp hour battery, how long will it last with a 6 joule energizer? You think I can get it to last 3-6 months on a single charge?
3) Any recommendations on how to block the rain from hitting the battery and the charger?
Thank you!!
