I inherited a digital fence tester. I've only got about 300 ft of 
netting on it. I take the reading at the 'far end.' I'm using a 
plug-in-the-wall charge that cost about $89. It's the housebrand from 
Family Farm, I believe. I also have a battery-powered charger that 
will also reach the 6-7k range. I was using a solar charger for a 
while, but it didn't hold up for long.
