Hi,
I am told that campers in Africa have a novel way of protecting their campsites from predators.
It is said that a car ignition coil a battery and some tinned copper wire is all that is needed? A single wire is run about a foot from the ground through poles with insulators and somehow connected to the coil. Is this possible or merely folk lore.
Sounds a little simplistic to me, any thoughts as to how one could construct an electric fence with an ignition coil?
Cheers
Andrew
