I have a solar charged battery operated electric fence for keeping critters out of various crops. The solar panel was broken by hail and the battery is ancient and needs replaced. It was 6v 9 A.H.
I have several 12v 17A.H SLAs that don't do well powering an electric mower but I thought might be fine for the fence application. My thought was to use an LM317 to get the 6v for the fence, then swap the battery with a fresh(er) one, as needed.
Any problems you see with this idea, or things to watch out for?
Thanks.
