The American Hunter AH-NF-ECON is a hanging feeder combining a collapsible 19-litre hopper with a digital ECON feeder kit. Its programmable timer provides between 1 and 16 feeding cycles per day, with an adjustable operating time of 1–30 seconds per cycle. Suitable for use Scheduled supplementary feeding of wildlife Dispensing dry corn, grain and suitable feed pellets Small and medium-use feeding locations Seasonal feeding points Monitoring wildlife in front of a trail camera Remote locations without mains electricity Portable or frequently relocated feeder installations Hunting-ground and wildlife-management use Why choose the American Hunter 19 L feeder? Collapsible 19-litre feed hopper Programmable digital timer Between 1 and 16 feeding cycles per day Adjustable 1–30-second cycle duration Feeding schedules for different days of the week Powered by four AA batteries Metal spinning feed plate Integrated varmint guard Durable polyethylene hopper with UV inhibitors Rust-resistant hardware Two-piece construction for easier relocation Collapses to less than 25.4 cm high Designed for hanging installation Requires no mains-electricity connection Technical specifications Product type: Digital automatic hanging feeder Hopper volume: 19 l Manufacturer’s original volume rating: 5 US gal Manufacturer-rated load capacity: 22.6 kg Daily feeding cycles: 1–16 Cycle duration: 1–30 seconds Programmable days of the week: Yes Timer: Digital Feeder mechanism: ECON Feeder Kit Feed distribution: Motor-driven spinning plate Spinner-plate material: Metal Varmint guard: Integrated Power supply: 4 × AA batteries Batteries included: No Hopper material: Durable polyethylene UV inhibitors: Yes Hardware: Rust resistant Construction: Collapsible, two-piece design Collapsed height: Less than 25.4 cm Installation: Hanging Colour: Black Supplied with American Hunter collapsible 19 l hopper ECON automatic feeder mechanism Digital timer Metal spinning feed plate Hanging and connection hardware Four AA batteries are required and are not included. Frequently asked questions How frequently can the feeder dispense feed? The timer can be programmed for between one and sixteen feeding cycles per day. Feeding can also be scheduled for different days of the week. How long does each feeding cycle run? The operating time is adjustable from 1 to 30 seconds. The actual amount dispensed depends on the size, shape, dryness and flow characteristics of the selected feed. Does the hopper hold 19 litres or 22.6 kilograms? Its nominal volume is 19 litres. The stated 22.6 kg figure is the manufacturer’s load rating, not a guaranteed quantity for every type of feed. The actual mass that fits in the hopper depends on feed density. What types of feed can be used? The feeder is intended for dry, free-flowing corn, grain and appropriately sized feed pellets. Wet, frozen, clumped or excessively coarse material may obstruct the outlet or spinning mechanism. Does this model require a 6 V battery? No. The AH-NF-ECON is powered by four AA batteries. It should not be confused with larger American Hunter feeder systems that require a separate 6 or 12 V battery. Is the feeder easy to transport? Yes. The hopper collapses to less than 25.4 cm high, allowing it to occupy considerably less room in a vehicle or storage area than a rigid container. Can it remain outdoors throughout the year? The hopper uses polyethylene with UV inhibitors and rust-resistant hardware. Regular inspection, cleaning and drying are still necessary, and the feeder mechanism should be protected against flooding, accumulated moisture and freezing. Recommended products A larger 114 l American Hunter feeder for longer refill intervals An American Hunter 6 V automatic feeder for a fixed installation Trail cameras for monitoring activity around the feeding point High-quality AA batteries Dry, free-flowing wildlife feed Secure hanging hardware suitable for the feeder’s loaded weight When is the American Hunter AH-NF-ECON the right choice? This model is suitable when a small programmable feeder is required that can be transported, stored and relocated without difficulty. Its four-AA-battery power supply removes the need to carry a separate heavy battery, while the 19-litre hopper is appropriate for sites that are checked regularly. A larger free-standing feeder is more practical when a greater feed reserve or longer service interval is required. The AH-NF-ECON is particularly useful for seasonal installations, locations monitored by trail cameras and areas that are difficult to reach with a large rigid hopper. Expert recommendation Hang the feeder from a strong support and account for the combined weight of the feeder and a full hopper. Leave clear space around the spinning plate and place the mechanism beyond the animals’ reach. Run a short test cycle before leaving the site to confirm that the spinner turns freely and the feed disperses correctly. Begin with a one- to three-second cycle and measure how much of the selected feed is released. This allows the daily quantity to be adjusted without unnecessary waste. Inspect the hopper regularly, as moisture, dust and broken grain can restrict feed flow. Empty and dry the hopper and remove the batteries before long-term storage. Programmable feeding in a compact package The American Hunter AH-NF-ECON combines a collapsible 19-litre hopper, digital timer and battery-powered feed mechanism. It is a practical choice when scheduled operation, easy transport and independence from mains electricity are required.
