So I've been on vacation all week, just chilling. I was originally going to leave town for a few days so I bought an Imagitarium fish feeder for like $25.

I was looking at it, and realized it has a button to activate it manually. I like buttons, buttons are suceptable to Jedi mind tricks.

I also had a spare channel on my Sonoff 4ch pro, so I set that channel to 1s inching mode and connected that button to it.

While I was in there, I converted it from 2xAAA batteries to run on my existing battery backed power supply so I don't have to remember to check the feeders batteries.
