Partial Success in Nonstandard Application
About a month ago I purchased a UDAP Bear Shock Portable Electric Food Storage Fence for Bears. That is the model recommended by the Forest Service to protect their food from bears while in the field. My application was to protect two dwarf apple trees.I secured landscape timbers to form a base for the fence and pinned them to the ground with rebar. Drilled holes in the landscape timbers to place the bottom of the bear fence posts into. Advantages of doing that compared to just pushing them into the ground included: . Avoided high or low spots below the bear fence . Raised the fence about three inches to give more clearance from vegetation which could drain the batteries . Made the fence more resistant to leaning in . After the apples are harvested, the bear fence will be stored away and can easily be reinstalled next yearBlack bears visit our property in Juneau, Alaska most nights. No bears bothered the apple trees until last Thursday night. Then a bear apparently jumped from the top of another fence into the enclosure of the electric bear fence. One branch of one tree was broken. Judging from the way both fences looked Friday morning the bear left the same way it came in.If it was designed for to protect food stored on the ground in an open area. If used in that manner it is less likely that a bear would have come over the top of the bear fence. I speculate that if there had been more distance between the two fences it is likely that the bear would have been repelled before entering the enclosure. Though a bear was heard near our house last night the it did not bother the apple trees again.

49 square feet
That is all you can protect with this fence. That is an area 7 feet by 7 feet. This came as a surprise to me as this information is not in the product description. I need to protect an area that is 20 feet by 20 feet so this unit is unusable for me, and because I got it as a Christmas present and was purchased more then a month ago I can't returned it. Vary disappointed .
