I think you'll need a few more solar-panels than mentioned with the first photo.

little extra sleep, a little more slumber,

a little folding of the hands to rest—

34then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit;

scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.

How many solar panels would you need to power a 15 foot high electric fence? I want to stay environmentally conscious while I zap the zombies.

Unless you are a military base or you raise genetically modified cattle that can jump really high, putting up a 15' electric fence definitely qualifies you for the looney bin. I like how you have it between "Hunting" and "Get to know your neighbors." Very sly way to plug your electric fence and barrier company Mr. Gunther

3) Build a 15-foot-high electrified fence

Hopefully the zombies that pop up after the uprising will be the slow and shuffling kind, not the fast and jumpy ones. A 15-foot-high electrified fence should just about do the trick for the slower undead, but you still might want to add a few spikes to be safe. You might have some issues with your zoning board getting a 15-foot-high electrified fence installed. As with any home improvement project, just check with your local building inspector's office on that one and don't be afraid to make compromises.
