Designed for multi-season use, this 10-pack of Acebinte repellent stakes uses a mix of ABS polymer for the housing and an extruded spike body. This combination is built to handle daily outdoor exposure while maintaining a consistent 400Hz to 1000Hz sonic pulse. The bulk quantity is specifically intended to help eliminate "dead zones" in the yard where vibrations might otherwise be blocked by underground structures or dense root systems.
The power system features a 1.2V Ni-MH 600mAh battery, which is a standard capacity for solar-powered outdoor lighting and tools. These batteries typically provide 300 to 500 charge cycles before a decrease in capacity is noticed. To ensure the unit remains functional through the night, it is best to place the stakes in locations that receive at least 8 hours of direct sunlight during the day.
Practical reality indicates that the effectiveness of the sonic pulse is directly tied to soil density; vibrations travel most efficiently through packed earth and less effectively through loose, sandy, or tilled soil. The units are designed to be weather-resistant, though it is a good practice to ensure the stake-to-head junction is clear of debris to maintain a proper seal against ground moisture.
Summary: A comprehensive kit for creating a perimeter of vibratory irritation in standard soil, provided they are positioned for maximum solar gain.
For a different approach to installation, you might consider the screw-top 4-pack which offers a slightly different assembly style.
