Wi-Fi Chicken Feeder – Part 1
Suitable for use in the chook run where there is 240V power for the 12V power supply or powered from 12V SLA battery for controlled feed sessions the yard or further out within wi-fi range. The feeder is controlled with the Smart Life app in conjunction with Amazon Alexa. For example to remotely open the feeder ‘Alexa… Open Chicken Feeder’. You can also press the button on the feeder itself to manually open & close.
