    12v feeders batteries

    How long does a 12v battery last in a feeder with about 16 seconds of run time daily?

        It will last right up to when you get your kids excited to go hunting and wake them up early to go. Or, if you take days off during one of those perfect, cold, overcast, days during the rut when you have it in your mind you are going to sit all day.

        Either one of those will drain it asap.

        You probably want to get a solar panel. You may also try to lower the spinner plate and cut the seconds back.

            I have a 12-volt battery with a 20-year-old solar charger that put out almost nothing now. It will usually last till the end of January or a few weeks longer. When it gets cold the battery goes pretty quick.

                A new fully charged battery should last the whole season.

                      Before solar panels, mine would last about 6 weeks running 20 seconds a day.

                        What is the battery chemistry?

                          Mine usually last until the first good cold spell and I'm sitting there waiting for the feeder to go off and nothing. Probably won't last the whole season

                            Don't know but buy a name brand battery instead of foreign.
