Anyone ever try one of these?

Not one of those, but the plastic ones were ok, flimsy legs, though. I also used a couple Boss Buck solar feeder motor units under a couple of 55 gal barrels that lasted about 9 years. They were looking rough (especially the solar panels) when I replaced the units, but were both still going strong.

Actually, I'd be going for the one right behind it. I can vouch for those.

Yup. Been using it for a few years
