spark treating batteries with an electric fencer????

(1/3) > >>

MtnTopRebel:
Any ideas on where it would work, blow things up or??????

wpowokal:
I am assuming here you are in America! and suggest you advise your government, it may prevent a retalitory strike from Russia, North Korea or China.

K3CZ:
While such an idea might appear attractive, it has at least the following disadvanctages:   Extremely lo power per pulse; Pulse is AC, not the required DC; hazardous to operator (ouch!!).            K3CZ

nothing to lose:
 I dought it would hurt anything other than maybe ruin the battery, but be SAFE and be far away when you turn it on!!
This is HIGH volts, very low amps, and I don't think it will blow up the battery, but I could be wrong too.
As for being AC volts I don't think so, but again I could be wrong. I have had several  chargers they seemed to be DC, but I never actaully checked them. I have had 120Vac and 6Vdc powered ones. Solar 6Vdc one was lower volts like around 5,000 I think.
If they are AC then it should be easy enough to put a bridge rectifier or something at the end of the wire.
I was going to try this myself long ago but forgot about it after I bought a pulse charger.  I would take the battery way out away from anyting and run a fence wire to it. Keep the charger at the house.

This way if it goes BOOM you only lose one battery, maybe a rabbit or skunk.
Nice thing about fence chargers, mine powers about 2 miles of wire or allot more (forget total now) so that means you don't have to be anywhere near the end of the line.
I was going to put mine in a clearing and let it run for about 5 minutes then shut it off and check the battery, heat, bubles, volts, etc.. and if all seemed fine then run it about 1-2Hrs and check again. If evrything still seemed fine just leave it on all night. Kinda work into it slow, shutting it off and checking every so often.
And I would not SPARK it, I was going to use a solid connection, if it works you should get Hydrogen and sparks will blow up the battery then. Pretty sure you did not mean actually "spark treating batteries" will a real spark there, but thought I should mention that just in case :)

I have been shocked by electric fencers several times. Now I'm more frightened by a fence then even my cows ! But it does restore amazing vitality and energy in a person for at least a few seconds : )
I'm guessing it won't do much for your batteries however.
