Speedrite S3500 Solar Energiser - More Information
The Speedrite S3500 Solar Energiser is a powerful, self-contained solar electric fence energiser designed to provide reliable fencing power in remote locations where access to mains electricity is difficult or impossible.
Ideal for gamekeepers, pheasant and partridge pens, gamebird protection, estates, farms and rural land management, the S3500 combines an integrated solar panel with a rechargeable internal battery to provide dependable electric fence power without the inconvenience of continually transporting and replacing traditional external batteries.
Delivering up to 3.5 joules maximum output energy, with 4.6 joules stored energy, the Speedrite S3500 is capable of powering up to 30 km of electric fencing or an area of up to 20 hectares, making it an excellent choice for larger gamekeeping and land management applications.
Install it, connect it to your fence and allow the integrated solar charging system to take care of maintaining the battery – providing a practical, low-maintenance electric fencing solution throughout the season.
Electric Fencing for Gamebird & Release Pen Protection
Protecting gamebirds from predators is an important part of game and shoot management, and a correctly installed, well-powered electric fence can provide an effective additional deterrent around pheasant pens, partridge pens and other gamebird enclosures.
The Speedrite S3500 is particularly suited to powering electric fencing used as part of a wider predator management strategy.
Electric fencing can help deter animals such as foxes, dogs, mink and other ground predators from approaching or entering vulnerable gamebird areas.
For gamekeepers managing pens away from buildings and mains electricity, the integrated solar system provides a major advantage: there is no need to continually carry heavy conventional batteries backwards and forwards simply to keep the fence operating.
Powerful 3.5 Joule Output
The S3500 sits towards the powerful end of Speedrite's portable solar energiser range.
With 3.5 J maximum output energy and 4.6 J stored energy, it provides the power required for considerably larger electric fencing installations than smaller portable solar units.
This makes it particularly suitable for large release pens, extensive estate fencing, livestock containment and larger rural electric fence systems where dependable fence performance is essential.
Powers Up to 30 km of Electric Fencing
The Speedrite S3500 is rated to power up to 30 km of electric fence or approximately 20 hectares, providing considerable flexibility for larger installations.
This makes the S3500 a versatile choice for:
- Gamebird and pheasant release pens
- Partridge pens
- Predator deterrent electric fencing
- Estate and shoot management
- Farm and agricultural fencing
- Livestock containment
- Temporary electric fencing
- Semi-permanent fencing installations
- Permanent electric fence systems
- Remote areas without mains electricity
Actual fence performance will depend on factors including fence construction, vegetation loading, earthing, number of fence wires and general installation conditions.
Integrated Solar Panel & Rechargeable Battery
The S3500 is a completely self-contained solar powered electric fence energiser, incorporating both the solar panel and rechargeable battery within the unit.
During daylight hours, solar energy is used to maintain the internal battery, allowing the energiser to continue powering the fence when sunlight is unavailable.
For busy gamekeepers and estate staff, this significantly reduces the maintenance associated with traditional battery-powered fencing.
There are no separate solar panels to install and no external car or leisure battery to continually transport, charge and reconnect.
Designed for Remote Gamekeeping Locations
Gamebird pens and estate boundaries are rarely located conveniently beside a mains electricity supply.
The Speedrite S3500 has been designed specifically for situations where conventional power sources aren't readily available.
Its combination of solar charging, internal rechargeable battery and portable construction allows the energiser to be positioned where the fence is actually required rather than where a power supply happens to be available.
This makes it particularly useful across shooting estates, farms, woodland, gamebird release areas and remote countryside locations.
Full & Half Power Modes
Different electric fencing applications don't always require maximum output.
The S3500 provides full and half power operating modes, allowing the energiser output to be adapted according to the installation and operating conditions.
This provides additional flexibility when managing different fence lengths and applications throughout the year.
Day & Night Operating Modes
The Speedrite S3500 also provides dedicated day and night operating modes, allowing its operation to be optimised for either containment or exclusion applications.
For gamekeepers using electric fencing primarily for predator deterrence around gamebird pens, this added flexibility allows the system to be configured around the periods when protection is most important.
Battery Level Indication
Knowing the condition of your electric fence system is particularly important when the energiser is installed in a remote location.
A dedicated battery indication mode provides a clear indication of battery charge, allowing gamekeepers and land managers to quickly check the condition of the system during routine rounds.
Plug & Play Installation
The S3500 has been designed to make installation straightforward.
Its plug-and-play configuration means the energiser can be installed and connected without the complexity associated with separate solar panels, external batteries and charging equipment.
The unit can be mounted to either steel or wooden posts, providing plenty of flexibility when positioning it around existing game pens, fields or estate fencing.
Portable Between Pens & Locations
Despite its powerful output, the S3500 remains a portable electric fence solution.
It can be used for temporary, semi-permanent or permanent installations, allowing gamekeepers and landowners to relocate the energiser as requirements change throughout the year.
This is particularly useful on shoots where fencing requirements may change between rearing, release and later stages of the season.
Built for Outdoor Use
Electric fence energisers spend their working lives exposed to the elements.
The Speedrite S3500 features a rugged, weatherproof enclosure designed for demanding outdoor environments, making it well suited to year-round use on British estates, farms and shoots.
Robust output terminals also provide dependable fence connections for long-term field use.
Less Battery Maintenance – More Time Managing Your Ground
Traditional battery electric fencing can mean regularly transporting heavy batteries from remote pens, charging them and carrying them back into position.
The integrated solar panel and rechargeable battery of the S3500 are designed to dramatically reduce this routine maintenance.
For gamekeepers responsible for multiple pens and large areas of ground, that means less time maintaining fence batteries and more time concentrating on birds, habitat and the wider shoot.
