I've got a review for you guys...
I picked up one of these from the Bucee's in Terrell this summer and put it out in Knox County. It was easy to set up and ran great for a few months but the last time we went out it wasn't throwing. After messing with batteries, swapping timers, etc., I figured out that the large "varmint-proofing" plate that sits under the spinner needs to be adjusted down about another 1/2-3/4" away from the base of the feeder box. This will prevent the spinner plate from letting the corn kernels get jammed up between the plate and the bottom of the feeder. I think this is mostly due to the weight of all the corn on the bottom of the feeder box and lack of support.. otherwise when full it will bulge/swell enough to get the spinner plate & corn in a bind.
Not sure how long my feeder was locked up but I think I've realized the biggest design flaw with these cheaper ASF stand & fill feeders. I plan to replace the bolts holding the plate with some that don't have the sleeves (threaded 100% of the shaft) and add 2 nuts to act as spacers.
Anyone else run into this issue yet?
