inD Aquatics Automatic frozen food feeder

[Gundy]

I got this email today about the long awaited automatic feeder that feeds frozen foods. Many have commented on if this product will actually be released and it appears that we will see it in the coming months. This product sounds promising and if it does what it says it will do, they may have a hard time keeping it in stock. I’m very interested in how this feeder will perform and if it will actually become a successful product. My guess is they have a massive amount of money invested in its development.

Is this the company that ran a kickstarter over four years ago?

Did they end up refunding contributors or is this the same product/campaign?

I don’t think it has been 4 years. They did have a prototype a while back but totally changed the design with a lot of better features. Now it seems they have changed it again with even better features.

Yeah it’s been 4 years -

I’ll walk to china if it comes out next year, been soo many “it’s just around the corner” updates over the years.

I’ll play devils advocate on this one…

If it’s been 4years then it’s possible the Pandemic had a lot to do with it,l think about how products with long established supply chains were affected. Throw in bankruptcies and I can see some legitimacy there.

Still could very well be another Elio Motors scam

They actually went as far to have them available for preorder, last year I think... I preordered. They were very transparent about withholding the release so they could improve their product. They refunded me and said they would hold a place in line when they actually release. I received a similar email.

Fwiw, the product's looks have changed drastically on their website now compared to when it was previously available for preorder.
