If the battery fails it should be recycled, not sent to land fill. Return it to the
manufacturer if unsure.
7.4 BATTERY REPLACEMENT (SV5/SV10 ONLY)
The JVA SV series of energisers contain a sealed lead-acid (SLA) or LiFePo4
battery that is charged by the solar panel. If the unit indicates a depleted
battery it will flash the red error LED twice. The unit should be turned off
and placed in full sun for 2 to 3 days to allow the battery to fully charge.
If after this time the unit still indicates a depleted battery, or the life of
the battery is reduced, the battery may be damaged or at the end of its
life and should be replaced.
To replace the battery
1. Check the fence voltage using an electric fence volt meter. The JVA
fault finder will also detect faults and direct you towards them.
2. Remove the three screws attaching the bracket to the unit. Remove
the six screws securing the case back to the front of the unit.
