Product Overview
The 18-Ball Baseball Lite-Flite Feeder provides extended, hands-off, and consistent pitching by holding 18 baseballs and automatically releasing a pitch every 6 seconds. Made of durable, lightweight steel, the 15-pound unit is easy to carry and simple to set up, attaching directly to the pad bracket of the Jugs Lite-Flite Machine without any tools.
Since the feeder taps into the same power source as the Lite-Flite Machine, no additional power supply is needed to operate it. It is designed exclusively for use with Lite-Flite Baseballs and is suited for backyard players, youth leagues, high schools, and colleges. Note that the Lite-Flite Machine and balls are sold separately.
