Review on Field Guardian Super Lightning Protector: Unbeatable Protection for Your Field by Freddy Hammonds

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The arrester is designed incorrectly, the spark gap cannot be adjusted.

The disadvantage of this design is that the black end insulator cannot be moved back or forth through the slot in the bottom of the metal like other similar products, which allows you to set the critical air gap according to the minimum distance between two metal tongs. As it is the distance is about 1 inch when it should be much closer, about 1/4 inch instead is enough to prevent the electric fence charger from jumping over the gap, but no further. I lost my electric fence charger a few days ago due to this design flaw. That's what the spring is for, allowing that black insulator and top button to move forward or backward. This product attaches the isolator to a fixed hole rather than an adjustable slot. It didn't work for me because of the large factory installed air gap between these end pliers.

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
Cons
