Can this feeder be electric, or both battery and electric?

It's a piece of crap, don't buy it. It quit working while I was away, and my cat nearly starved to death. Had fresh batteries in it, it just quit. Lasted about 6 months before it died. I bought another type, it seems to be working fine for the past 3 months. Don't remember the brand, but email me and I will look into it and make a recommendation. Oh, and it's battery only.

For those that purchased an ac adapter...where on the unit does it connect? I can't seem to find a plug connector anywhere. Also, what model adapter did you purchase? This unit would be perfect IF I can power it thru an outlet. Thank you very much! - Brian

Yes. The feeder doesn't come with an electric cord, so its set up for battery power. I ordered a compatible electric cord (wasn't sure of the size so order one with interchangeable connectors) for maybe $13. Works great and don't have to worry about battery power failing.

You can plug the feeder into an electric plug. I just went to Radio Shack to get one. Bring the manual so they know what Volts/Amps you need and the connector type.

I remember that there is an AC apapter that you can purchase for the feeder. I just use the batteries, because we get occasional power failures. I really like this product and my cat loves it.

This feeder is battery-operated only. You may be able to purchase an electrical plug separately.

It is electric. The motor sits in a bracket that you attach to the grill. Can easily be removed when done.

It is electric. It broke right after I wrote that review. I only had it 1-2 days and it just stopped working. Total waste of money.

It is not at all powered by electricity. There is a battery operated monitor but I don't think that would be an issue. We don't use that feature anyway.

Ours is battery operated, but we've had our feeder for what seems like forever and can only remember changing the batteries once.

It's electric. The cord is a little short so you may need an extension depending on where you want to put it.

It is electric with. 120 volt A/C cord that is not detachable. It has no battery-operated option of any type.

It is electric. It comes with a short cord, so you must supply your own extension cord.

A long time. My feeder has the dual battery option. I've been going for months feeding corn twice a day and it still shows 100%. I had the 6volt solar panel on it for awhile, but the raccoons tore it down and something chewed the cord through. Now, when I'm up at my land working, I just hang it up and plug it into the charging port for a couple hours. This is one thing Moultrie has down. I can say my land isn't accessible (Florida in wet season) from July - September, it wasn't throwing corn but continued to cycle all summer. Showed 100% when I showed up in September, to do maintenance and start feeding those hogs/dear again. Good unit. A long time. My feeder has the dual battery option.

It is made for electricty, but I took a simple power inverter and hooked it up to a car battery to make it portable.Very easy to do.The power inverter was only $40 and it runs the Bulldog for hours.

Electric, but it's not good. Get a Medela. I got this one for free from my insurance and ended buying a Medela Pump In Style anyways because it was ineffective

It's powered by air pressure. If you want to cycle a feeding schedule, you would control the air pump. I leave mine running continuously.
