What's the max number of times this autofeeder will feed? I plan to go on a vacation for 30 days, and I want to feed 2 times a day.

It will do three feedings per day. I do three per day myself because I'm feeding fry and they need more feedings as they grow.

4 times a day and it can rotate once for a single feed or twice for a double feed

This feeder is not the right one for you if you're going to be gone that long. to get it to feed for a month twice today you would have to have it feed a very, very small amount each time. I think you could go comfortably 2 weeks, twice a day on the feeder. Hope that helps!

It depends on how much you want to dispense at a time. I personally wouldn't let it go for 30 days without someone checking it.

If you are feeding a big tank with many fish probably not but a small tank I'm sure would be good. I know I have gone close to 30 if not 30 days feeding twice a day.

It depends upon your environment. I wouldn't do it everyday maybe...twice a week? One or two spritz?

It is adjustable as to how much it feeds daily each time. So the answer would be how much you feed your pet a day. My problem was it was not reliable, so if you are counting on this feeding your pets be sure you or someone is around to make sure they are being fed daily. Neither one of mine were reliable. I honestly would not feel comfortable relying on this to feed my pets. One I don't use at all anymore and the other one my husband took apart and turned it into a free feeder works with just gravity flow and maybe a shake now and then.

This is not a one day feeder. It has a timer that operates both feed bins. I have a 125 gallon tank and I have used it on vacation up to ten days with no problems. I would say that the amount of days would depend on the amount of food and the number of feeding you give your fish each day. The only problem I have had(and is true of other feeders also) is that it does a better job with pellet food then with flake food.

I have never had an issue with the autofeeding part and I have never tried a different spool/line assembly. I am 77 years old and have owned nearly every brand of trimmer and this B&D; GH710 is the best that I have ever owned. In fact I will buy two of these if anyone can tell me where they are available.

Yes, that is correct. You can input up to three feedings per day, and designate the time the food drops to the minute.

Depends on how many fish you have. I use it when on vacation with a 36g bowfront and 30 fish. I've gone 12 days and had food left even though it tends to overfeed.

I used to live on a few acres and I used it everywhere. Unless I was using it next to a metal edge (something like hogwire), I would usually get a month or more of usage before I had to re-spool. I still have quite a bit of line left on my .065" x 300Ft pack that I bought over a year ago. I would give the auto feed a 9 on a scale of 10, as long as use wind the spool "firmly but not tightly". I buy a new one about every 3 years - that seems to be the battery life. Would buy it again.

I break the flakes and feed two time at they two portions and in other tank I feed little 4 time at day. Also I try to not add to much food (for 7-9 day) if I will be in home. I notice the food began compact because the humidity. Some time I remove the food and dry it in the over or add new food after clean and dry the food chamber. I have several feeder some of my feeder use rechargable batteries is an option if you need to feed several time at day.

I believe you can dispense 2.5 cups max in 1 feeding. You can select in increments of 1/4 cup. When setting the dispenser you select "1" for 1/4 cup, "2" for 1/2 cup, "3" for 3/4 cup..etc. It goes from 1-9, and I believe 0 is for 10...which would equal 2.5 cups.

Can't say specifically. We have a Philips Saeco and I use this when the indicator comes on. Generally though, once every 4 -6 weeks and we grew 3-4 cups daily. So maybe 100-150 cups?. Just an estimation though.

This is a 2-meal feeder only. I set if for morning and evening for my dog. And yes, you have to reset it after you refill it. It works great. But there are also 5 day feeders, which would probably work better for you.

I have my feeder set up to go off twice a day. The instructions were easy to follow to set the times and the amount of feed. You program it once and you are good to go but can easily make changes if you need to change times and amounts of food.

I believe you can program it to feed 3 times a day. We have it set for twice a day. You only have I program it once unless you want to change it. It may have to be programmed again when the batteries die. I don't know about that yet.

Good afternoon: and thank you so much for your question. Once desired results are achieved: twice weekly useage would help maintain the results. Please let us know if you any more questions. Much regards;
