I had a fence charger that I have subsequently forwarded on to Michoacan. I connected it to the back door knob after 10 PM. One night I was awakened by a scream and a bump against the door. I love it. Now I am holed up in a fortress with two metal door (and get this) razor wire stop the nine foot exterior block wall.
