    Huge help. You’re 100% correct that the instructions are not as helpful as they should be.

    You can reset the feed time on the quick set I have one at ten seconds and the other at five seconds. With that said I do thank you for the custom part of this I have tried numerous times to change the time on quick set and now I know how to use the custom part of this thing. I hate to say how many times I tried to set that time and could not. Thanks again and if American hunter sees this please revise your instructions because they suck.

    I totally appreciate your video! The idiots at AH have NO CS, I emailed them, left a VM, asking for CS to call me, put a negative review on Amazon and STILL no assistance. How do you NOT include how to install the battery into the device? And yes, the slop in the "fit" keeps the contact from continuity with the contacts, so I created a wedge, works perfectly now. THANK YOU!!!

    I can't thank you enough for this. There was absolutely no figuring this out for my husband when going by the so called "instructions." You were a life saver!

      Same here, it seems nowadays we need to contact someone from China for instructions on the cheap a$$ junk products some of these companies are pushing on the American sportsmen. What the hell happened to this country?

    Love your video 😍 Thank you so much for making this video. After rereading the custom timers several times I still couldn't figure it out. All I wanted was 2 custom timers and helped me accomplish just that! Thank you, my Dad is going hunting this weekend and wanted his new feeder set up. Now he can go knowing it will work and didn't waste his money on a single timer. ❤ You rock

    Great video. I have these same feeders and I agree with you. Its a lot of trial and error until you figure it out. Custom setting is important so that you can account for daylight savings time and the amount of daylight you get in a day.

    • @texasyardmanandmore3822
      @texasyardmanandmore3822 Рік тому

      Its pretty easy once you figure how the timers work. Custom mode is a must for DST. The instructions how to use it are on the inside of the spreader underneath the cover. Thanks for watching and liking my video. TYMM :)

    Thanks man. Good job. This is the most frustrating timer I have EVER used. I bought two of these feeders last year when on sale for half price... After I put them together and set them up I could understand why nobody was purchasing them.

    thank you so very, very much for doing this video. I don’t enjoy wasting time but I did with this timer. What a joke. They really need to get this figured out if they haven’t yet. Great product otherwise but good grief. If you hadn’t shown me how to program I would have returned it.

    Nice video, easy to follow. IF you decide to do another video, do it over the solar charger addition to this product. The instructions say to remove the enternal battery when using the solar power charger. Failure to do so can cause damage to timer. Makes no sense to me.

    • @Arrow_Army
      @Arrow_Army  Рік тому

      I read that as well but hadn't planned on using a solar panel on it bc I think the plug in spot for the cord isn't in the best place. I think I will try it though.

    You should do some follow up videos giving a follow up reliability report on this feeder. Some game camera photos and hunting videos would be cool too. Keep making your content and I'll keep giving thumbs up.

    Thanks for the tips! I kind of feel like this product is a complete piece of crap so far. Do you know if you need the 6V battery for the solar panel setup to work, or can the solar panel substitute the power to the panel?
    Also if you want 2x a day every day of the week at say 2:00am & 2:00pm would you need to set 14 custom settings?

    • @HoldunReed
      @HoldunReed 8 місяців тому

      I don't know about using a solar panel with it. I've not tried using one on it yet. No, you do not need to set up 14 settings if you only wish to do 2 custom settings.

      Unsure but it's pretty easy. There are plastic pieces that simply turn and click into place. No screws or tools needed.

      Yes, you can set just 2 custom settings and leave the rest alone.

    I really appreciate your video, this Chinese crap peddling company should be paying you for making this video. Whoever they have in charge of quality control at Wildgame Innovations needs to be fired! They seem like just another company looking to make a quick buck and "screw the hunter". This will be the last product I purchase from these lame crooks!
