Great job transforming that old fence electrifier into an electrolysis machine. You got it looking much better too. Excellent work.

[@razorboyXVII]

This has got to be one of the most innovative restorations I've ever seen! Outstanding work! 👍

[@robertbeer2584]

Clutch bits are one of the most unique design in the specialty category. When you look at the tip from the top, it take on a bow tie or hourglass shape. These bits were very popular on vintage motorhomes. If you own one or are thinking about buying one to restore, chances are you’ll need a set of clutch bits.

[@michaelbenzinger2600]

Great restoration! I grew up on a dairy farm in Wisconsin during the sixties. I believe that was the exact model we had in the barn. That brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, what an incredible transformation! It's amazing to see how Lost & Restored turned a rusty, century-old electric fencer into a practical and useful power supply for rust removal. The creativity and craftsmanship on display here are truly commendable. It's inspiring to witness the repurposing of old technology to serve a new purpose. Great work, Lost & Restored! Looking forward to more fascinating restoration projects like this.

When removing that transformer, it reminded me of the Spanish saying: "Desvestir a un santo para vestir a otro" ("Undress a saint to dress another") X-D

[@r8118830]

I would prefer an old fashioned battery charger. They work great on completely dead batteries. An old fashioned battery charger works very well for electrolysis as well. I have also used them to power low voltage soldering irons. A battery charger needs a few extras but they are easily and cheaply obtained. I do like the workmanship.

The red and green indicator lenses look similar to a early1970s Land Rover. Great job in restoring the electric fence. I bet modern electric fences would be weak compared to this vintage energiser and would not be affected by a electro magnetic pulse (E.M.P)

@@lostplanet7046 I'm only 30. I've seen them around the world. Specifically military bases and old factories overseas. Also see them on old electronics and gadgets at yard sales and flea markets. They resemble the safety screw used on a bathroom partition. Like at loves and pilot or rest areas.

[@13DLight]

I grew up on a farm and we had an electric fence charger that looked very similar to this one, same size and shape with the big green and red lights. The green one would flash and the charger would click as it sent current to the electric fence. This would have been back in the late 60's/early 70's.

[@psirvent8]

What did the red light mean though ?

Fantastic, I notice you showed the plastic bag swollen after two days in the sun, it must be nice where you live, in England we're lucky if we have two days of sun all year round. 😂

[@syntheticcheetah]

Those screw heads are what is called a Clutch Bit screw. They were an early attempt at a security screw, but like you did, obviously grinding down any basic flathead screwdriver isn't very "Secure". Either way, you can still buy those bits fairly easily.

not 100 years old, but pretty old. I had one just like it that I bought at a junk sale from a neighboring farm. THe "chopper" inserts would cause it to cycle and burn any weeds or grass that grew into the fence. Does this new one actually charge a fence and burn weeds/grass or just charge a battery? Looks darn good either way.

[@Vault57]

This was a great repurposing. Sometimes, it is hard to justify whether to restore, repurpose, or just junk it. In this case case I think you made a good call. The main thing is that you did not do anything to the case that could not be restored to the original if some future antique addict chooses to do so. It looks the same but has a new function somewhat akin to the original. Cool piece, I was thinking of a lamp or USB charging station.

[@Zeldachief128]

I literally shouted "you suck pal" at that ohm joke. Thank you for that lol

[@mrglowhite2365]

Great job! Considering that the restoration is not authentic (switch on the side) I would put an ammeter and a voltmeter (full of round, retro appliances on the market).

[@john_barnett]

Dashed my hopes of seeing you test an electric fence on yourself

[@PerfectRestore]

👍📻 The craftsmanship with which this restoration was done is simply impressive!!! ⚒️👍

[@brake_4_cake]

Would've been easier to grind a slot in the screws than modify a driver

If this electric fence control was 💯 years old, then it must have been made and used in 1923! This was right long before our time. 💶 💯

[@scottbishop2061]

Those screws are called " clutch head"

[@garymucher4082]

Nice repurposing project. BUT, with a little clever thinking, you could make it do both purposes. A mere DPDT switch and it could also be used as a fence charger. The old high voltage transformer can easily be rewound to make it such a project. And new caps as well. Just an idea since you asked for ideas... Thumbs Up!

[@lostandrestored]

I love it and thank you. I have very little experience with electrical work.
