Batt-Latch

Automatic Gate Release Timer

The Batt-Latch is a pocket sized timer which will release an attached spring or tape gate at a preset time and day. This device is absolutely brilliant for dairy farms using feedpads or for those who regularly break feed supplements before or after milking. The unit has a very low capital cost and no maintenance expenses.

Using the BattLatch, you can allow the herd access to the feedpad at very early hours before even the most energetic farm worker would care to rise. It also suits medium to large farms and herds, and those with long raceways to the dairy.

  • Features of the Batt-Latch Timed gate release, at the right time, every time.

  • Labour saving, less trips down the farm (maybe even a sleep-in!).

  • Fuel saving, less trips on the farm bike.

  • Less lameness and stress on livestock, they can shift at their own pace.

  • Reduced pasture pugging, can release stock before pugging occurs.

  • Easy to read, full message display lets you know exactly what you’ve programmed in.

  • Simple to use keypad programming up to four release times which can be daily, weekly or a once only event.

  • Noise of spring gate being released alerts stock that the gate is now open.

  • Now with solar panel so no battery charging required. This allows 100% usage.

  • Durable webbing belt easily attaches the Batt-Latch to posts and gateways.

  • Comes with heavy duty spring gate and power jumper lead.

Budgets in place?
Hope you now all have our budgets ready for the coming season, if not use a rainy day to do this. Breaking it down makes it easier. For example; do not ask yourself how much you are going spend on feed, but asking questions like; Am I going to feed grain, how much do I need, how much per tonne? How much silage do I need to make?

If you need any help setting up or monitoring a budget please to not hesitate to call, Evelien is available for one-on-one tuition, either at your place or via Internet.

Training organised?
Have you got your computer and software training organised for this winter?

Think about what you need to do to get ready for the GST change on October 1st 2010 and plan in advance!
You will need to either make changes to your current software (which should be possible) if you do not want to upgrade or upgrade your software. If you need help email info@compusense.co.nz or call 03-3719077

If October falls in the middle of your GST return you will need to make a split return. When you GST report coincide with your financial year, yu will be fine if your financial year end on March 31 or May 31, but for a June 30 year end you will need to think about this!

Although budgets are usually made excluding GST, GST does influence your cashflow, please check your budget after the changes and talk to the bank if needed.
