This feeder has its own internal feeding electronics timer that can be triggered by just about any type of external remote timing device. The supplied 12Vac INDOOR type power adapter (style may vary) can be used, or any programmable timing device with 9 to 24 volts ac or dc output can be used to trigger and power it such as a sprinkler timer or outdoors lights timer with 12 volts output. If the supplied power adapter will be exposed to rain, an outdoor approved power supply is also optionally available from Super Feed. A 12V battery can also be used with a programmable 12 vdc timer if normal power is not available, also optionally available from Super Feed. The length of time the feeder feeds is totally independent of the length of time the remote programmable timer is on. Each Super Feeder also has a "volume" adjustment to compensate for the size of food. NOTE: This "basic" KSF-2 holds 4 and 3/4 cups of pellets. Its capacity can be increased by either purchasing the KSF-2XL or purchasing the optional 1.5 gallon hopper (24 cups) which stacks on top of the basic KSF-2. Additional 2-cup clear extensions can also be purchased. Once again, The supplied power adapter is indoor type and must be kept out of the weather. Of course, the timer you will use will also need to be indoor or outdoor type for your application. Super Feed also stocks those items. | | | Features: | |

Excellent ProductMar 03, 2010

Works very well at keeping the Koi fed at my home that I am renting. I do not have to rely on the tenants to keep the fish fed.
Great little feederMay 13, 2012

WE purchased one from the manufacture, delivery was swift, the instructional video on the Mfg site was very useful. The end result is a well made feeder that does the job as reliable as you electrical supplier. We searched for a feeder that we could trust, and as you may have found most offered have mixed reviews or poor reviews. The Super-feed K2 is sturdy though you do have to construct your own support. We chose to use 2x4 lumber for the support arm attached to flange mounted on 1.5 inch PVC pipe, this was slipped over 1 inch PVC pipe set into ground. A simple screw pin prevent the set-up from turning, when the pin is removed the feeder can be moved closer for filling and service. We found that by using the feeder we were reducing waste and not over feeding the fish. Since the feed drops gently into the pond our Koi do not go into a mad splashing feeding frenzy, instead they casually move under the feeder and start collecting pellets. Defiantly a system to consider if you want to feed your Koi while away or just make sure that they are served a meal at the same times every day.
