Common Questions

Does it need any external power source or battery?
No. The S16 is fully self-contained — the built-in solar panel charges the internal 6V battery during daylight hours. No mains connection and no external battery required.

What area will it cover?
The S16 is designed for strip grazing or paddocks up to 3 acres (approximately 1km of fence line) under good conditions. For larger areas, the S25 covers up to 6 acres and the S50 covers up to 12 acres.

Will it work during winter or in low light?
The S16 uses a smaller 1.35W panel and a 4.5Ah battery. Performance may reduce during extended periods of low daylight. For year-round use in Irish conditions, the S25 with its larger 10W panel and 12Ah battery is better suited.

What's the difference between the S16, S25 and S50?
The three models increase in output joules, battery capacity and coverage — S16 for strip grazing up to 3 acres, S25 for up to 6 acres, S50 for up to 12 acres. The S25 and S50 also have significantly larger solar panels (10W vs 1.35W) for better performance in lower light conditions.
