Frequently Asked Questions
What material is The Feed Ball made of?
The Feed Ball is rotomolded using medium density polyethylene. Rotomolded MDPE offers a range of benefits that make it an ideal material for various applications. Its excellent durability and impact resistance allow it to withstand harsh environments, making it suitable for outdoor use. MDPE is also lightweight yet strong, facilitating easy handling and transportation. Additionally, its flexibility in design enables the creation of complex shapes without compromising structural integrity. The material is resistant to chemicals and UV radiation, ensuring longevity and minimal maintenance.
The Feed Ball was designed to take a beating and with a UV stabilizer mixed in with the resin, it is made to last for decades out in the elements.
What are the benefits of a rotomolded feeder?
Rotomolded deer feeders offer several advantages over traditional metal feeders. Firstly, the rotomolded design creates a durable structure that resists rust and corrosion, ensuring longevity even in harsh weather conditions. Unlike metal feeders, which can dent and bend, rotomolded feeders are impact-resistant and can withstand rough handling. Additionally, the lightweight nature of rotomolded materials makes installation and relocation much easier.
Furthermore, rotomolded feeders typically have a more versatile design, allowing for various shapes and sizes that can cater to specific feeding needs. They also tend to have better insulation properties, helping to keep feed dry and protected from moisture. Lastly, rotomolded feeders often come in a variety of colors, blending more naturally into the environment, which can be beneficial for attracting deer without causing alarm. Overall, rotomolded deer feeders combine durability, functionality, and aesthetic appeal, making them a superior choice for wildlife management.
Why is The Feed Ball shaped the way it is?
The Feed Ball was designed as a spherical shape for multiple reasons:
The shape allows it to be more aerodynamic than standards box feeders. Its smooth, rounded surface allows wind to flow around it more easily, reducing drag and minimizing turbulence, enhancing stability and resilience against strong winds.
The shape also provides a conical shape at the bottom of the feeder drastically minimizing residual, old remaining feed at the bottom as the feeder empties.
How does the central drive shaft system work?
The central drive shaft system was designed to allow the user easy access to all critical components of the mechanical system at face height. The battery, timer, motor and solar panel can all be conveniently accessed without removing cages, turning the feeder on its side or laying on the ground, while also keeping them out of reach of surrounding wildlife, eliminating the potential for damage to the components that keep the feeder operational.
The drive shafts are custom made in our shop and composed of 1/4" stainless steel round bar with two bearings that allow the shaft to spin freely inside of a protective, schedule 40 pipe encasing the shaft. The drive shaft system is anchored to both the top and bottom of the feeder using flanged locknuts, offering a rigid anchor within the feeder itself.
What is the broadcast radius of The Feed Ball?
The Feed Ball is designed to efficiently broadcast corn to attract wildlife, enhancing the feeding experience. By using a 12v motor system, the motor allows for an ample amount of torque to provide a wide distribution of feed. Feed is broadcasted in a 360 degree radius, ensuring effective scattering over an area of 20~30 feet.
The feed is broadcasted between the two, 24" varmint guard plates at the bottom of the feeder using a 4" bowl spinner plate.
What is the warranty on The Feed Ball?
