This message is from: "Rose or Murph" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi, I have gone through my woes of the naughty horse breaking hot wire, tape ect. I have a fjord mare, and also an aged 1500lb percheron-quarter horse cross that used to walk right through everything. Tape, hotwire, no problem. That is for sissies he thought. It usually happened at night, I always was woke up to him right outside my bedroom window grazing. My fix was,,,it completely ended the escapes. I bought a 6 joule fencer, the biggest one I could find. Most horse fencers are 1 joule output. No more escapes, ouchy! I think there are also some great new nylon products out there that last a long time for tape, especially if you get a lot of wind. Rosemary

Hoagland Subject: Hot wire This message is from: "Les D" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi everyone well , I need some advise about hot wire. I am replacing my old with new tape. I did some but it only lasted about a week then it broke. It is to only back up what is there. What is the best type to use. I am using the white 1/2 inch tape now but it doesn't seem to be strong enough. What brand and where do you get it? What type charger do you use? I am trying to keep the horses off the fence. What do you keep from chewing the wood? Thanks to all! Les & Margaret H.
