The GOOD & BAD - Evolution Aqua auto feeder - Is it complete junk?

[@HumberKoi]

Cheers for the credit Dave took a while to get it to where I could put the video out to help people but the amount of messages I’ve had since I did it is mind blowing. Should be that adjustable out the box.

[@susanschonauer8487]

That’s a great net over your pond. Where did you get that?

[@fozdotfoz]

Youll be suprised how quick the fish associate the noise with dinnertime. Nice video 👍🏻

[@koibreeding]

Use your Fishmate P7000 and put an air stone to move the food across the pond or put in the flow into pond!

[@scottcannings2746]

Good video Dave, EA need to up there game, ❤

[@KoiBoyUK]

Thanks for sharing this! I find I can only use this in the height of summer when the koi are at their hungriest, any other time of the year and half of it ends up in the skimmer! I’ll give it a try, thanks again!

Hey Dave, I have the unoverpriced and unbranded feeder ( same control and motor), mine has the built in solar panel and us very good, never needs to charge, run button does a set amount, about a number 3 size feed (huge), I always feed at setting 1. I may look at the mod though, good idea.

[@AddictedToKoi]

Hi Dave. Great video mate. I use the linn profi auto feeded. Had it years. You can put as much or as little in as you want. Expensive but worth it. All the best 👍

[@mykoiobsession]

I have a Fishmate P7000 on my pond and it works very well for me although I do like the fact the EA feeder broadcasts the food rather than dropping it. I have my Fishmate positioned to drop the food in front of a return to the pond so the food is dispersed pretty quickly and the koi don't seem to mind. Too bad that you have to modify a brand new product right out of the box. Of course the simplest solution would have been to double your pond size and triple the number of fish so no mods necessary. 🤣🤣🤣

[@Spike064]

Cue A Team music - the three of should patent it! 😂🎉v well done on the mods

[@ArtemkaPannat]

A great honest review, thank you ... The only way to test it with your own settings is through the timer. The run button ignores your settings and fires it for 3 seconds ⏰ which does not help its reputation If you take your Fishmate food dropper and have smooth curved surface of an appropriate shape/size fastened underneath it, will the food not roll off that surface over a better area ?

[@danielgodden8216]

Something to be aware of with the EA feeders is the flap to the control panel tends to open. I woke at 5am one morning hearing the auto feeder continuously going off. There was a slug on the run button! Thank God I heard it otherwise it would of dumped the whole hopper into the pond.

[@Brand-Family-Koi-Adventures]

Nice one davo handy to know as I was going to buy one soon so at least I know what I got to do with it lol hope all is well

[@andygoddard525]

Hi Dave you should have kept my JLB feeder ! Great vid as usual. ATB Andy

[@jamieskoipond]

Great update I got the all pond solutions auto feeder and that was the same I couldn’t send it back so sold it on eBay for half the price I paid for it and took the loss. I’m still finding an auto feeder that’s going to work on my pond as it is a lot smaller then your pond.

[@stephenlaming3288]

Hi Dave, A other great update on the feeder project that you have done mate mate I have got one of them as a spare incase my one on my main pond go's wrong mate. Steve

[@kerrielove7608]

Hi Dave, I am still feeding by hand but am still unsure of the cheapest but best quality winter wheatgerm feed to give?

[@asterixborden-koi6881]

Great video Dave yeah definitely some teething problems there mate being it’s a EA product and at a cost of £££ you would have thought they EA would be interested in Feedback for customers and try to make mends with the product and rectify the issue 🤷‍♂️ thanks for sharing mate 👍

[@samhirschfield853]

Wheyyyyy ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

[@StevenCurtis-Koi]

Dave when you press run it runs for 3 seconds 👍

[@UpNorthKoiPond]

I'd say EA should be all over this knowing how many reports online there is about it, but then I remember this is EA we are talking about!😂 Thanks for the crotch view, one for the bank👍😬

[@lindosbay]

We've spoken to EA and they are not interested. They just say they don't make them! Sadly I wasn't there when my husband spoke to them, but it makes not a jot of difference, they don't make them! BUT they do sell them, and they are making money out of them, under false pretences. Your contract is with the seller not the manufacturer! I wish everyone who has ever bought one had sent them back, perhaps we wouldn't all be in the situation we are all in!

[@koipond6266]

Great video, it’s very annoying to spend time on modification, when you have paid so much

[@philhorton1827]

Hands that do fishes that are large as a plate with Evo....lution Aqua 😁

[@Wally_wals_koi]

Fucking great hands 😂😂 brilliant

[@scrag68]

Thanks for the Shoutout Dave Lad, great feeders tbf and the battery life is superb, I miss the noise tbf I always knew the feeder had gone off when I heard it. Ponds looking good mate 👍🙏

[@HumberKoi]

Mate I love the noise of it I hear it then just go over

[@scrag68]

@HumberKoi I do miss the noise lol simple things and all that lol

[@jakeshaw5422]

I have a 3d print nosel for mine I've sold quite a few drop me a dm if you need one 👍🏼

[@nippinkoi8924]

I’ve got early version I now control it with timer to the second 240v feeding up to 20 times a day if needed

[@brentpowell7889]

Interesting video, poor product development design 🤦‍♂️

[@nippinkoi8924]

I weighed mine got 33g per second

[@colinholland3156]

Why buy something that dont work for your needs and you already modding it ? What's the saying Buy cheap buy twice JBL all the way for me

[@edenkoipond]

I brought it not knowing it wouldn’t be suitable. I’d filled it with food and put a screw through base to hold it down. I should have tested it first. Trying to take it back would have put my local dealer in an awkward position as really the fault was my own. I’ve played around with it and it’s working well and I’m happy with it. Would I buy again, definitely no. Like you say, should’ve just got a JBL feeder. Thanks for watching 👍🏼
