I have about 600 feet (a tenth of a mile) of electric fence to run in a horse pasture. If I get a higher volt (6 volts) that is sufficient for 10 miles of electric fencing, will there be enough power and am I able to connect a tank de-icer for about 15-20 gallons of water to the fence charger? If so, how can I do that?

Don’t try this. The cord for the de-icer isn’t the same as the output from the solar charger. Your solar charger is probably also a pulse, which would also be very bad for your de-icer.
There are solar water buckets that even work in Maine. I would recommend one of those if you don’t want to run extension cords. That would cost about the same as a higher voltage solar charger.
