Probably the most
durable cattle and shock prodders available today.
Revolution in animal control A Humanitarian Electric Stock Prod.
Ever since the
invention of the electric stock prod they have always indiscriminately shocked
animals with no regard to different sensitivity levels.
Not all
animals are the same. When an animal refuses to move an electric stock prod is
invaluable. To meet the needs of the few, very stubborn and insensitive animals,
electric stock prods have become more and more powerful. When these high power
electric stock prods are then applied to sensitive animals, abnormal stresses
can be induced. This is a sledge hammer approach when all that was needed is a
small rubber hammer.
Now WASP
prodders have developed the “Progressive” power electric stock prod. This
is a world first. The patented system gradually increases the power level over a
short period of time. The probes are applied to the animal and the button is
pressed. As power increases, the animal will determine the point when it is time
to move. Only provide what is sufficient and not an overkill. (Patent pending
number 560460)
There are many
benefits of lower stressed animals while handling.
·At abattoirs animals
are calmer until point of slaughter, resulting in more tender meat.
·Loading stock trucks
allows animals to be more co-operative instead of overexcited.
·Any situation where
animals are un-cooperative, they do not become hypo agitated after receiving an
excessive electric prod.

Wasp prodders
We produce a robust range of output power levels using our robust housing.
Please note this animal prodder uses progressive power technology.
This is different to other makes of prodders. (Other prodders are full power
from switch on) Protected by provisional patent number 560460
NOTE: At time of manufacture the units are
pre-programmed with any of the following operating modes.
Chose this
Full power from time of
pressing the button.
Or this
Medium power from time of
pressing the button.
Or this
Ramp up power from 20% to 100% over 2 second
period from pressing the button.
Yes/No here
Time out after 2 seconds after pressing the
button. Then button needs to be let go for 2 seconds before it can work
again.
As standard we supply this product as progressive power with no time out.
Variations in setting has to be specified at time of order. (Minimum order
quantity required)
Benefits:
When ramping power is used, the animal decides when to move.
This reduces stress to the animals and the operators of cattle prods.
Battery life:
We use a high efficiency switched mode inverter. This produces an effective
shock yet conserves energy for long battery life. Average current draw = 450mA.
Using good quality alkaline batteries the batteries should last about 18 days
continuous. This is based on working a full 8 hour day with a duty cycle of 3
seconds on and 20 seconds off.
If used less, say 2 hours per day batteries should last over 2 months.
Features of
the Max.Pro WASP shock prod.
Progressive power output option.
Strong, almost unbreakable flexible wand.
(Made from Aluminum and spring
steel.)
Sounder confirmation. (Pitch increases with power
level)
Notes.
The electronic module is a capacitor discharge
system.
There is a memory effect. The probes may remain charged for some time after use.
Instructions:
Use ONLY on animals and not Humans.
Recommend the use of alkaline
batteries size “D” (4 required) Normal heavy
duty batteries will also work but will last shorter time. See above
The Wand must be fully screwed on.
(See instructions on back)
When shorted out, and the button is
pressed a sparking will be heard inside the unit.
This is wet animal circuit operating. This is normal.
Do not submerge in any liquid.
Make sure the back cap is screwed on
tight.
To achieve less stressed animals,
apply probe to animal BEFORE pressing button. After probes have made contact,
press and hold button. Animal will move at its discomfort level. (Progressive
model only)
As standard we supply this product as progressive power with no time out.
Variations in setting has to be specified at time of order. (Minimum order
quantity required)
PRODDER NOTES:
Product Feature note:
The electronic module
provided a captive discharge system at high voltage. There is a memory effect in
that the probes remain charged for some time after use. We also have to option
or supplying the units without the memory effect.
