i just bought this. the instruction manual is very poor on how to set things up. can you explain the high low switches? i def was not getting a ball every 4 seconds, more like 10 seconds - i was running on batteries. maybe it's better with electricity?
I've not run it in batteries. I've used a very strong battery pack that I use to jump start my large diesel truck and it works great. Yes, batteries may be the issue, but I can't say for certain. Definitely try running it with it plugged into a wall outlet. Also, I found the customer support to be very good. Try contacting the manufacturer for more info or guidance.
No. I bought a separate power strip on Amazon that had a remote. It works pretty good and definitely makes it much easier to enjoy the furlihong. Here's a link to it: BN-LINK Outdoor Indoor Wireless Remote Control 3-Prong Outlet Weather Proof Heavy Duty 15 AMP Compact (Black) 3 Grounded Outlets with Remote 6-inch Cord 100ft Range ETL Listed a.co/d/g9ClmSC
Yes, I use Franklin X 40s all the time. I also use the new Selkirk balls as well as durafast and other off-brand balls as well. My machine is still working. It's a little quirky, but for $150 I don't expect more. It's still doing a great job.
Can you like make it do a cross court dink? I bought this one but the speed even on low is pretty high for a dink feed. You always use it from baseline to do dinks?
I've used it on a pickleball court many times now. Considering the price, I can't say enough good things about it. I've been able to practice so many different shots using this. I use it to practice returning serves at the baseline, transition zone drop shots, and volleys at the kitchen. I've also added an additional spiral feeder rack. So now it holds 36 balls. It's a bit top-heavy heavy so I have to be very gentle with it, but so far it's working great.
Hell yeah . That looks great, I wish you would have hit some shots.
The tripod attachment is brilliant! Could you share more details on how you made the attachment?
Good job on improving the machine with the tripod and remote control.
Thanks! Made a big difference!
nice machine！
Agreed. Thanks!

Agreed. Making it dink is difficult. The best I can do is set it up to do drop shots. That's very helpful, but still not a dink
Does it cone with the tripod?
test it on a pickleball court please
