If we really were as smart as we keep telling our kids...


I had one of those conversations with the Captain, "If we really were as smart as we keep telling our kids we would...."

In this case it was come up with a way to back-feed each other's fence in the event that one of the chargers failed.


We agreed upon a place where our fences were 60' apart.

I ran the wire 12' up in the trees so I would not find the hot wire with my face.

If you squint, you can see the ladder I used to place insulators up in trees.

The clamps on the end are ordinary, locking pliers. I made a pigtail for the pliers with a short run of copper wire and a few washers.

We may never use the capability but it gives piece-of-mind to have it in place, ready to go.
