FF,

I don't have the fancy stuff, like you have.

I have to keep replaceing batteries in mine.

Just a suggestion, since the wire is probably getting chewed by bushy tails, is there a way you can put a piece of copper tubing around it?

I had to make a metal box around my straight shot feeders to keep them from eating them up. They actually ate the batteries, and the computer board out of mine, but the metal box seems to be working.

I spent last week hunting, but have yet to see the one I'm looking for. Have you had any luck?
