how do they work

OUR SUPER FEEDERSŽ ARE VERY DIFFERENT THAN OTHER BRAND FEEDERS. BEFORE ORDERING YOUR SUPER FEEDERŽ, YOU SHOULD REVIEW THE INFO AND QUESTIONNAIRE BELOW TO FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH ITS VERY UNIQUE AND UNLIMITED MODES OF OPERATION. If you need personal assistance, you may reach us at (817) 453-8688 or info@super-feed.com

First, do you already have some type of programmable lamp/appliance timer, home automation module (X-10, HAI system) or other type of timer into which you can plug the feeder's supplied power adapter into? Or, do you have an automation system and/or timer/transformer like ones used for outdoors/pool lighting with anything from 9 to 12VAC pr DC output? Or, do you have a sprinkler timer with 24VAC output? If the answer is YES to any of the above, then you may only need to order a "basic" feeder package, which only comes with a low voltage power adapter. If the answer is NO, then you will need to order, along with your Super Feeder, a programmable timer from our list of timers, or you may choose a combo deal with your preferred timer, which will include everything needed, even domestic shipping and handling. If you cannot keep a regular timer and the supplied indoor power adapter out of the rain using an enclosure, garage or otherwise, make sure you choose one of our outdoor timer/transformer combination, or our outdoor power adapter which you can use with just about any outdoor timer with a 120V outlet. PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT THE REMOTE TIMER WILL ONLY BE USED TO POWER AND "TRIGGER" THE FEEDER'S INTERNAL ELECTRONICS AT A PROGRAMMED TIME. IT WILL NOT CAUSE THE FEEDER TO FEED CONTINUOUSLY, NOR WILL IT FEED FOR THE LENGTH OF TIME THE REMOTE TIMER IS ON--THE FEEDER WILL ONLY RUN FOR THE AMOUNT OF TIME YOU PRE-ADJUSTED YOUR FEEDER'S ELECTRONIC FEED SYSTEM.

NOTE: In addition to the above, if you are ordering an outdoor feeder, you may want to consider ordering hook-up wire, or you may order a combo deal. Furthermore, if you are ordering a cat feeder, you will need a mount/platform, porch 4x4, or other type of post to which you will attach the feeder's metal bracket and strap, unless you purchase our indoor platform/mount with a combo or by itself.

All of the Super Feeders will feed anything from flakes to pellets and cat food. The advantage of a Super FeederŽ is that food exits out of a side chute, not out of the bottom (like most other feeders) where moisture can (and will!) enter the feeder and contaminate the food, especially flakes when used on an aquarium. DON'T LET FEEDERS WITH AIR LINES OR SIMILAR GADGETS FOOL YOU! Have you ever seen what is CREATED with forced air in a humid environment? MOISTURE!! Our aquarium feeders deliver flake food with our patented Moisture Trap Funnel. The funnel DOES NOT ATTACH TO THE FEEDER. The feeder's chute is placed next to the edge of the funnel's opening, not over it, so that the neck of the funnel remains in the open air. FURTHERMORE, OUR SYSTEM STIRS THE FOOD INSIDE THE HOPPER AT EACH FEEDING CYCLE TO KEEP IT FROM CLUMPING TOGETHER.

Thank you for your interest in our product!

If you would like to use any outdoor timer with 120 volt output, then you can use the outdoor power adapter shown at left which is weatherproof and can be mounted to a wall or post.

2. If you are wanting to purchase a Super Feeder and use a 12 Volt battery (we do not sell batteries), you can purchase any of our 12VDC timers at: http://prostores1.carrierzone.com/servlet/super-feed_com/Categories?category=Programmable+Timers Some wire is all that you will need to operate your Super Feeder. Most dc timers are available with an indoor housing, outdoor enclosure, or just "basic." Any small 12 volt battery source will work any Super FeederŽ and last a very long time. The feeder and timer use an extremely small amount of power to operate!
