Back in the 1960s my father wired up a HO Train set transformer to our birdfeeder. The transformer was from of the kitchen window with a forest view of the feeder . Once a squirrel could be seen on the feeder (and the birds had flown away) he would turn up the transformer knob shocking the squirrel..to our glee.. and probably explains why I turned out like I did .. LOL😂

My daughter's cats were tearing up her Christmas tree three years a go so she called home in a panic. I took one of the farm chargers over and wired it to her tree. Three years later they still don't climb that tree. :)

I guess you know by now but your wood will be slightly conductive once it gets wet.This causes DC resistance and will load your power unit down. You can make small insulators from many items. I like plastic tops from drink bottles Just drill 2 opposing holes through the sides and run the wires through those holes Drill them so that the wire will run off center. Then drive a small nail through the top wo touching the wire. This a free upgrade which will keep the load caused from the resistance of wet wood from harming your power source. Plus, it will be more effective since the potential difference between ground and your live wire will be higher.

I made a couple of chargers from auto ignition coils. One was a coil on plug coil from a VW. I use a "tilt switch" made from a wire with a fishing weight hanging through a heavy wire loop. It is hooked up so when shaken, the tilt switch makes and breaks switching the primary on an off causing the secondary to fire. I just use a 9 volt battery to drive it since it draws no current if not disturbed. I can just be hung from a fence wire or hung from the bottom of a bird feeder.

If two conductors are paralleled up the pole, the grounding rod is completely unnecessary. And as you've discovered, a lucky squirrel will occasionally miss the conductors. A standard poll collar will keep them from climbing the pole and is maintenance-free. But, I'm always amazed at how far and high the squirrels are willing to jump from other objects (trees, roofs, and such) to get to the top of feeders. Good luck with your squirrel-proofing. It seems as soon as one comes up with a solution, the squirrels figure it out.
@Aspano0033 жыл бұрын
I threaded my feeder pole thru a slinky. Allow the slinky to hang 5ft high and at least 2ft off the ground. 100% squirrel proof if there isn’t a tree or fence near it. They cannot climb up a slinky.

Put electricians dielectric grease on any mechanical connections on everything, especially outdoors , like NoKorode, AntiOx, etc. and they'll last a heckovva long time! Worth it to never have to clean & redo connections. I'd have made tighter winds after going up the pole a ways, so you can watch.

I had a feeder with a 9v powered shocking circuit on the bottom of the birdfeeder but that gave out over time. I wish i could find another circuit to replace it. The perches were metal and if the squirrel touched two perches they got a shock automatically. It worked great.
