I have quite a bit of travel in the coming months and am in need of an auto feeder for my nano tank. I need one that can reliably feed 3 times a day.

Nothing too expensive as I will only use it when I am away and cannot tend to the tank myself.
 
How many days will you be gone at a time? If only a few days at a time, go with this one because you can pre-fill the compartments with exact amounts of food to avoid over feeding:

If you’re gonna be gone longer than a few days, use this one, you just have to carefully set the dispenser opening width to feed the correct amount:

I use both of these feeders personally and am happy with both. They are both rechargeable and last many weeks without a charge.

Finally I recommend you pair them with a feeding ring to avoid the food being sucked up by the filter before it can sink and be eaten:
