I agree with the Parmac solar fencer choice. I have 3 of the 6-volt energizers and have had to only replace one battery in 6 years. They are the best buy for the money. The 12-volt parmac energizers are also very good, but more expensive for only minimal increase in power.
I have two bull calves and a heifer calf out of Amen. Very happy with all of them. He gives them a very athletic look, thick and wide. He worked well on both Angus and maine-angus cows. Bred more back to him this year.
