Swaledale snacker (electric control)

[Whitby.2008]

Really like the build quality of the swaledale snackers.
Is anybody using a swaledale electric drop snacker behind a quad? Is the battery on the quad up to it?
salesman is telling me that I should just get the manual version, and the electric version is more suitable and aimed at a utv?
any thoughts appreciated.

I have a manual one and it is one of the best things I ever bought some 12 years ago.
It is used for over 6 months of the year and is abused by various operators. Easy to fix and maintain.

Why make it complicated!
You can calibrate easily by measuring say 50kg and counting the numbers of drops needed to empty it.
