AMERICAN HUNTER Sunslinger digital game feeder kit with integrated solar panel, weather-resistant metal spin plate

The American Hunter Sunslinger is a weather-resistant digital game feeder kit with an integrated 6V solar charger and metal spin plate that automatically dispenses feed up to 16 times per day.

This Sunslinger kit pairs a heavy-duty metal spin plate and varmint-protected housing with a programmable digital timer and built-in solar charging to keep feeders working longer in the field. Designed as an upgrade or to build a custom feeder, the kit runs from a 6V battery (sold separately) and gives precise control over feed frequency and duration while protecting components from the elements and pests.

How do I schedule feedings and control run time?

The Sunslinger’s large LCD timer lets you program between 1 and 16 feed events per day and choose run times from 0 to 60 seconds. Two pre-configured Q-sets speed initial setup, and the unit stores your settings in memory so they aren’t lost when the battery dies.

• Set up to 16 individual feeding times daily
• Choose 0–60 second spin durations to adjust feed volume
• Pick specific weekdays for targeted feeding schedules
• Large LCD and saved memory preserve programming

What protections are built in against pests, motor jams, and weather?

The kit includes a fully enclosed varmint cage around the spinner and an option for an anti-shock circuit to deter feed thieves. The industrial-grade motor has jam protection and the control housing is weather resistant to stand up to outdoor conditions season after season.

• Enclosed metal varmint cage prevents critter damage
• Jam protection helps avoid motor burnout and interruptions
• Powder-coated slinger and downspout resist corrosion
• Weather-resistant control housing shields electronics

Can this kit run on solar power and what battery does it need?

The Sunslinger ships with a factory-installed 6V solar charger that continuously recharges a 6V battery (battery sold separately), extending field runtime and reducing manual maintenance. Reverse polarity protection guards against incorrect battery installation.

• Integrated 6V solar charger maintains battery level
• Requires a 6V battery (not included) for operation
• Reverse polarity protection prevents damage from wrong hookup
• Solar charging minimizes the need for frequent battery swaps

How does installation and compatibility work with existing feeders?

The Sunslinger kit is designed for easy installation on most deer feeder barrels and supports either twist-lock or flat-mount hoppers. Included mounting flexibility and a rail for accessories make it simple to upgrade an existing setup or assemble a new feeder from parts.

• Works with twist-lock or flat-mount hopper styles
• Twist lock or flat mounting options included
• Accessory rail for add-ons such as remote activators
• Simple installation suitable for field upgrades or new builds

Who this product is for: The American Hunter Sunslinger Solar Game Feeder Kit is aimed at hunters, wildlife managers, and landowners who want a dependable, low-maintenance feeding solution with flexible digital scheduling and solar charging. It suits anyone upgrading an older feeder mechanism or building a custom feeder system who needs critter protection, a strong metal spin plate, and precise feeding control without daily battery chores.
