The Genius Rug Range launched the Guardian and Hotline Electric Fencing range of electric fence rugs back at BETA, in 2016! This exciting range of rugs offers a dual action as either a 0g lightweight rug for the summer, or it can transform any normal turnout rug into an electric fence rug when the Genius rug is used as a top layer.
Electric Fence Current Transfer
The Genius and Fence Buster range are made using “smart” fabrics used in the chest, which transfer the electric fence pulse through to the inside of the rug; this means the horse will respect the fence exactly as they would if not wearing a rug at all.
6 Quick facts about electric fence rugs
• Helps prevents escapes by transferring the current of the electric fence through the rug to the horse
• Dual use as 0g lightweight OR transform any rug into an electric fence rug if used as a top layer
• The pulse is transferred instantly – the moment the horse touches the fence
• Stops a horse walking into, leaning over or ducking under an electric fence – meaning your fencing will last longer !
• 100% fabric (no wires or batteries)
