A 12-volt timer switch would be better. Then you can use the backup batter to power the timer.

Great Idea that you have used the feeder mechanism... Also you are very creative that you have constructed using the simple pipe fittings. Congrats!

@smo0812 9 лет назад

What a great idea thank you... When I build my own I believe that I will use a much smaller "drive wheel" on the motor and a larger wheel on the spring auger so I can eliminate the 4 sec black box and just use the 1 min. timer. Thank You so much you have an excellent feeder

Very creative David. I liked the way you made improvements as your project progressed. I live in Upstate NY and am cruising RU-vid for ideas to make my own fish feeder. Thanks for sharing. Fred

I used 2 pieces of 110mm pvc pipe with each a reducer of 110/40mm - these two parts are slotted into one another with a 40mm washer linear solenoid arm in the middle to close and open 40mm holes. Think of it like 2 cones stacked if one hole open the other closes.

Super cool - love the hardcore DIY of this!

@SSLFamilyDad 10 лет назад

Very cool, have been thinking about designing something like this for my system. Thanks for the ideas!

Sorry, I hadn't read your previous reply. Got it now, thanks

Hi thanks for the video. Is there anyway you could attach a diagram of the whole control circuit of this feeder please? Also what is the yellow board that you attached the circuit on called? Kind

@randallbayer1688 10 лет назад

Yes, a wiring diagram would be very helpful. I have the components, but it is hard to see how you have connected the wires. Please give us a diagram.

@trevorparnham 10 лет назад

A wiring diagram would be useful, As I don't really understand how everything connects. Sorry to be so dumb

@CaptainSavageAquatics 8 лет назад

Awesome job I'll have to try it on my fish tanks!

@SuperSeki007 10 лет назад

great video, but just can not figure out which wire goes where!

@hezelmet 9 лет назад

Hello David! Do you think you can come up with a quick wiring diagram for this project? Thanks a lot for the awesome idea brother.

@vincentpaul1316 9 лет назад

Very cool! Great job on the build & video!

@porrascarlos80 8 лет назад

Amazing job! I will try to do one myself.

Hi! can you provide a block diagram or wiring connection guide on this project?

@fj55tyrant 10 лет назад

@nathanadams6820 8 лет назад

Also the next time you are doing a project try out AliExpress.com i prefer the App but it all whole sale electronic items imported from china straight to your door I've used them many times in the past. Strongly recommend giving them a quick look around before starting your next project.

@AeroSport103 10 лет назад

Great imagination! Thanks for posting.

@xrogi2961 5 лет назад

Hey. Your project is still working, have you made changes?

@modelmodz 8 лет назад

question. your final product I noticed the motor turns so much slower.and the big wheel does too..so are u now using a motor controller circuit..how did u get the motor to turn slower. to the previous very fast speed before your final mod

@nealebbett 7 лет назад

Hey David, whats the voltage you're running through the "switch" side of the timer? I'm trying to do something similar - power the unit with 220v, but the unit I'm trying to control/time/switch is 12VDC.

@PramodMani1 7 лет назад

Hi David...Can you please share the wiring diagram?

@juaads5712 8 лет назад

Bom. gostei. Parabéns pela iniciativa.

@simpledate 7 лет назад

Cool, but you could have used a simple 555 as a timer that gives you the 4 seconds. 25 cents instead of 8$. Many ways to skin a cat. By the way, be careful with those timers, if the power goes out and comes back on they sometimes go to the ON mode and stay on till the program goes to the OFF time.

@thecocared 10 лет назад

Awesome video, thank you! I was wondering if you had a diagram of the timer set up that you could email? If so, that would be awesome! Thanks

@AztecWarrior69_69 5 лет назад

No need for wiring Diagram if you just use one of these Din Rail TM-630S timers. They are already 12VDC (They have a few different voltage options). You can set them from 1 second to hours. There is a power side and motor side the switch and jumper are internal. This $6 timer take care of mostly all the wiring. www.aliexpress.com/item/32956262816.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.2f753c00Qww6Mu&mp=1

What is the voltage of the output signal from the timer

@randallbayer1688 10 лет назад

BTW, you can get the timer from Amazon for $5.79. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GIBTQMI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

great video! how did you make the coil?

@gregorsidler3962 9 лет назад

Awesome........ thank you!

@instalemong6498 7 лет назад

This is very informative,THANKS Do you know how to change time format from 24 hours to 12 hours?

@AztecWarrior69_69 5 лет назад

You long press the clock button for like three to five seconds.

@ivanhajovy8576 9 лет назад

Where did you get the box and what is it made from?

@davidcarr4464 9 лет назад

Hey David, I realize this was a year ago so I don't now if you will respond. I'm trying to keep the neighborhood cats out of my boat. I cant cover it, long story. Anyway I am building a PVC shower stand that consists of a 5 gallon bucket of water with a marine bilge pump submerged in it. I need to cycle the 12 volt DC pump on for a bot 10/15 seconds once an hour. I like your set up, good job. Do you think it would work for my application? All responses are welcome. Thanks in advance guys... Dave

@vincentpaul1316 9 лет назад

How many RPM's is the motor that you are using?

@busigh Год назад

Very nice

@trevorparnham 10 лет назад

This is excellent. Do you have a link or model for the programmable timer, please?

@AztecWarrior69_69 5 лет назад

No need for wiring Diagram if you just use one of these Din Rail TM-630S timers. They are already 12VDC (They have a few different voltage options). It is DIN Rail and Panel mountable, makes it easy to secure. You can set them from 1 second to hours. There is a power side and motor side the switch and jumper are internal.
