Why You'll Love It
The R425 is the feeder of choice for property managers, avid hunters, and serious fishery operators who can't afford downtime or guesswork in their feeding program. American Feeder has built a reputation for quality that stands up to real-world conditions, and the R425 is their flagship large-capacity model. The included solar charging system means you'll spend less time maintaining the feeder and more time focused on results.
Whether you're managing a trophy deer property or keeping a productive lake stocked and feeding, the R425 delivers the capacity, control, and durability to get the job done season after season. The bank and dock mounting compatibility, combined with the Vari-Tilt base, gives you the flexibility to set it up exactly where you need it. This is a feeder built by experts, for experts - and it shows in every detail.
Is the solar panel enough to keep the battery charged year-round?
In most climates, yes - the included solar panel is designed to maintain the 12-volt battery under normal sunlight conditions. The panel is mountable on all 4 sides of the feeder, so you can orient it toward the best sun exposure for your location. In extended periods of heavy cloud cover, you may want to periodically check the battery level using the built-in battery estimator.
Can this feeder be used for both fish and deer feeding?
Yes. The R425 is rated for 250 lbs of fish food or 425 lbs of deer corn, making it a versatile option for multi-purpose properties. Many customers use it primarily as a lake feeder but find it equally effective for deer feeding programs on the same property.
What mounting options are available for the R425?
The R425 comes with a Vari-Tilt Base that allows directional adjustment for optimal feed scatter. It is also compatible with bank mounting and dock mounting, giving you the flexibility to place it where it will do the most good - whether at the water's edge or out on a dock above your lake.
How do I set the feeding schedule?
The R425 includes a programmable digital timer that lets you customize when and for how long the feeder runs - up to 60 seconds per feed interval. You can program multiple feeding times per day to match the natural feeding patterns of fish or deer on your property.
Does the feeder require assembly?
Some assembly is typically required for large outdoor feeders. We recommend contacting us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for specifics on assembly requirements and to confirm freight shipping details before your purchase.
