I'm just waiting for an auto feeder that handles frozen.

Unless you're into seriously hardcore DIY that's going to be quite the long wait!

I'm picturing something like a crushed ice dispenser from a fridge...

I think it's doable as long as you don't have a rimless tank!


Somehow I don't think that's my ticket to Easy Street.

how does this sit on the tank? does it fit braced tanks as well as braceless/rimless tanks?

 

[Jeremy B.]

The bracket that it comes with will allow it fit on a rimless or standard trim tank. It can also fit on a eurobrace tank as long as the eurobrace isn't very wide. Once we get them in here in a few days I can confirm just how wide of a eurobrace it will fit on with the bracket. If you do have a wider eurobrace you could easily remove the bracket and just use a piece of velcro with no problems, or even a diy magnet setup.

very cool!

Thanks Jeremy, it would be awesome if you can post some pics when you receive stock... maybe have one fitted over a rimless, and another over a braced tank so we better understand the mounting possibilities... thanks again.

 

[Jeremy B.]

No problem, will do!

hi jeremy,
any chance you can send us those pics?
thanks...

Unfortunately they came in and all went right back out the door immediately before I had a chance to get any photos as they were all presold. As soon as the new shipment shows up I'll make sure I post some, sorry about that.
