Sorry Greg still not clear, I have two feeders, my main feeder which I was discussing setting the timer is a game country straight shooter which is the bulk of my feeding, the other feeder is a Kenco. I do have alot of 3-5 pound channel cats.

Dave, yes and no. Every year I have had to buy a new motor because the rubber or plastic paddle breaks. Just did this last week so I should be good to go for the summer. The motor is about $35 each time. Luckly I have a Basspro near by which carries them. After using the Kenco for 3 years I finally figured out how to put the batteries in upside down both on the right hand side where they easily fit. Kenco is a perfect example of you get what you pay for.
