Is it good for grounders?

My 12 yo son said it can work if you get the ball thrown at the right spot (very top). He then warned that if you throw it at the middle of the net you'll get a line-drive to your face.

It's supposed to be but I found it difficult to hit the sweet spot to make it do grounders so unless someone else has a trick Id say no.

You can make it work. The way we did it, was to use something to prop/hold the net more upright. To get consistent ground balls without propping it upright, one would have to be extremely accurate with their throws, hitting the right part of the net (very bottom or very top). Another option is to have the thrower back up pretty far, but again, then they would need to be accurate enough to hit the net from a longer range. My 6 year old still misses the entire net from 40 feet, every once in a while. Hope this helps. My sons are in love with this thing.

Yes, it has the ground plug acceptance if thats what you mean. You can google pictures of it for further confirmation.

I installed this on a motorhome that has a series wired 12v system from 2 6v batteries. If by negative grounded you mean grounding to the negative terminal on the battery, I have had no problems.

This is not my experience. I found that although not particularly accurate; it does give some feedback.Use a voltage meter and walk the whole length of fence, testing as you go. That's the only way to get an accurate idea of where you're grounding out.I found I can hear the "tick" sound of the impulses grounding through plant matter (fence load).

I have used it without grounding the preamp. It worked perfectly, and, the instructions say nothing about your question, so I don't think it is a problem to worry about.

Actually I would drill a bunch of holes in it and make radials for it to be honest. Or yeah just a basic Earth ground. But radials are going to be FAR more effective.

I called tech support when I first got it and it can be done but there would be a grounding issue. It's designed as portable.

Easy to use but attracts lightening. And should be grounded using a grounding rod. Better to run copper and have a pro soldier the joints

Polarized or not, they are unsafe for use. Please keep in mind that these little jewels only make a three prong device "fit" into a two prong receptacle. That little tab does nothing to provide a ground circuit should the device short out or otherwise fail. The whole reason for the third prong is to prevent an electric shock. These devices circumvent that protective element allowing the surge of current to pass through you.

It so does protect againt surges. Those people writing negative reviews more than likely did not have a properly grounded outlet. It will not work without a ground! Get a circuit tester at any hardware store for about $5.00 (a lot cheaper at Harbor Frieght) and make sure your circuit is good. Besides the ground test, it will test the polarity on your circuits, and any GCFI's you have. Easy as pie to read ... not so easy to fix if you DON"T know what you are doing. Good luck -jay

My brother-in-law uses it indoors without grounding...and gets good results. Mine fell apart during installation. It never worked at all.

No, if your outlets have the little tunnel looking hole, that is the ground. An you receive the device to check the ground.

I have not used this product for ground coffee so I'm not sure if it would work well.

It's ground. And yes, you could use it in a perculator. It's very good, strong but good

I use mine for drilling into the ground to loosen the soil in my gold prospecting hobby. It has held up very well with no issues, and must be of a good quality or I would have broken or bent it by now. A PVC septic line should be easy work for this tool.

Yes. I checked it with a US triple prong plug. Of course the ground prong is exposed and not grounded, so this could be potentially dangerous.
