Auto Feeder Recomendation

[fio1022]

Hi all,
I'm going a well deserved vacation soon.Taking wife and kids to Disney,first time for all of us.can't wait!
I was thinking of using an automatic feeder this time.Last time I had a close friend feed.Enough said...
I'll have friend check on system daily and MAYBE feed frozen once or twice during the week.

Is anyone familiar with this product?Good or bad?

James,
We use them all the time to maintain tanks.
For me, a pain to program but not too bad.
Use a better battery than shipped with unit.
Can be used with either flake or pellets.
Fill the hopper & check the amount fed.
We crush flake if too large.
Remember when the food supply gets low the feeder will dispense more.

When I have someone feed I leave containers with food to be fed on a schedule. You can use a plastic bathroom cup.

Feed heavily a week before to fatten them up and have your friend come over 1 or 2 times that week.
