Installing Your HOGFADER Feeder Light

One of the biggest advantages of the HOGFADER Illuminator
is its mounting flexibility. Unlike feeder lights that require
permanent posts or complicated installations, the Illuminator
can be mounted in several different locations.

Whether you’re using a barrel feeder, box feeder, tree,
light pole, or T-post, HOGFADER gives you the flexibility
to position your light where it works best.

Where Can You Mount Your Feeder Light?

The HOGFADER mounting system allows installation on:

• Barrel feeders
• Box feeders
• T-posts
• Trees
• Light poles
• Other suitable mounting structures

The included ratchet strap can secure the light mounting
assembly to a suitable structure, while the supplied
U-bolts provide another mounting option.

This flexibility makes it easy to relocate your feeder
light when changing hunting locations or adjusting
your feeder setup.

Recommended Mounting Height

For many installations, we recommend mounting the
Illuminator approximately 8 feet above ground level.

Angle the light downward toward the feeding area,
typically located approximately 20–30 feet from
the mounting position.

The ideal mounting height and angle will depend on
your feeder arrangement, surrounding terrain,
and desired illumination coverage.

Positioning Your Light for Better Visibility

Proper positioning helps illuminate the feeding area
while minimizing unwanted glare.

When mounting directly on a feeder, consider positioning
the light so that it illuminates the bait pile without
shining directly toward your hunting location.

For installations away from the feeder, position the
light to provide useful coverage of the feeding area
while keeping the light source outside your direct
line of sight whenever possible.

Understanding the Illuminator’s Status Indicators

The HOGFADER Illuminator includes visual indicators
that help confirm its operating status.

• 10 slow blinks: Power-on confirmation.
• 5 slow blinks: Motion detection confirmation.
• 10 rapid blinks: Low-battery warning.

These indicators help hunters verify basic operating
conditions without needing additional equipment.

Why Mounting Flexibility Matters

Hunting locations and feeder arrangements can change
throughout the season.

A feeder light that can be relocated without installing
another permanent post provides greater flexibility
for hunters managing multiple feeding locations.

HOGFADER’s mounting options allow you to adjust
your setup as conditions change.
