Default Deer Feeders

Tired of fighting these POS On-Time deer feeders. I've got 6 of the Lifetime feeders, and at any given time, half aren't working. I keep taking them to get worked on, and its the same problem every time. The clock keeps stopping on the trip switch. And yes, I make sure the batteries are good.
Any suggestions?

Moultrie feeders, get the ones you can set the time on and not the ones with eye for dusk and dawn. I try to buy at end of season for $20-30 but get price is around $40 at Academy.... usually get at least a few yrs out of them and we mount them on a 55 gallon drum but try not to leave timer running with no corn since it seems like they burn up when running with no load.

Not cheap but worth the investment.

Default All Seasons Feeder

Go to there website. Been using these for years. They are the best. All replaceable parts so you don't have to buy a whole new feeder if one thing breaks (which usually takes a long time to do).
