Jugs Carousel Feeder

The Jugs Carousel Feeder is an automatic ball feeder that lets a hitter practice alone, with no coach or teammate feeding the pitching machine. A Lexan drum holds 36 baseballs or 18 softballs and drops one every 6 seconds. A full baseball drum gives more than three minutes of swings before anyone reloads. The in-line ON/OFF remote switch comes with it, which lets the hitter stop and start the feed from the plate. The frame is heavy-duty steel, the legs carry multi-point adjustments for height and angle, and the feeder runs on 110-volt AC.

The version you need is decided by the machine already in your shed. There is a softball and a baseball version for the BP1, MVP, Jr, PS50 and Changeup, a baseball and a softball version for the SP3 and BP3, a version for the BP2 Baseball, a baseball and a softball version for the mini3, and a Combo Carousel Feeder for the MVP Combo, Jr and BP1 Combo. It does not fit older 2-wheel models or the JUGS Combination 2-wheel machine, and the Lite-Flite Machine takes its own Lite-Flite feeders.

How it works

The drum, the frame and the feed rate are the same on every Carousel Feeder, and the version matches it to your machine.

A version for each machine
The Carousel Feeder comes in eight versions, each named for the machines it fits and built for baseballs or for softballs. Read the model name off your machine, note whether it is the baseball or the softball build, and match it to the version that names it.
Eight versions
A Lexan drum
The carousel itself is made of Lexan, a material known for its impact resistance. The drum holds 36 baseballs or 18 softballs and turns to drop one ball into the machine every 6 seconds.
Impact resistant
Steel frame and adjustable legs
The frame is built with steel for long-lasting durability, and the legs carry multi-point adjustments that fine tune height and angle. Those adjustments are how the drum lines up with the throwing head on your particular machine once the correct version is on the floor in front of you.
Height and angle
In-line ON/OFF remote switch
An in-line ON/OFF remote switch comes with the feeder and allows easy control away from the machine. A hitter can pause the drum between rounds without walking back to the machine.

How to use it

Fitment

Matching the feeder to your machine

First, the model, which is on the machine: BP1, BP2, SP3, BP3, mini3, MVP, PS50 or Changeup. Second, baseball or softball. Several option names carry a machine twice, once with a baseball build and once with a softball build, and the two are different feeders. Third, combo or not. If your machine throws both baseballs and softballs, the Combo Carousel Feeder is the version you want, with one exception: it does not fit the 2 Wheel Combo. The MVP Combo is named in two versions, the softball Carousel Feeder and the Combo Carousel Feeder. Set the feeder and the machine up together on a level surface, with a JUGS protective screen in front of the machine.

  • BP1, MVP Baseball, Jr Baseball, PS50, Changeup Baseball
  • SP3, BP3 Baseball, and separately SP3, BP3 Softball
  • BP2 Baseball
  • mini3 Baseball, and separately mini3 Softball
  • Combo Carousel Feeder for MVP Combo, Jr and BP1 Combo

The drum

A full drum of baseballs or softballs

A full baseball drum is 36 balls, and at one ball every 6 seconds that is 3 minutes 36 seconds of pitching before anyone touches the feeder again. A softball drum is 18 balls, which works out to 1 minute 48 seconds. A round that long lets a hitter settle into a rhythm and finish without a break. A red light on the feeder shows when it is switched on, so nobody walks into the cage guessing whether the drum is live.

Balls

Regulation practice balls by circumference

The drum takes balls by circumference. On the softball side, 11 in. or 12 in. circumference regulation weight JUGS Practice Softballs with seams, LeatherLast, Softie or dimpled style softballs. On the baseball side, 9 in. circumference regulation JUGS Practice Baseballs with seams, Pearl, Softie or dimpled style baseballs. The two Lite-Flite feeders mount only on the Lite-Flite Machine and take Lite-Flite balls only, so your machine decides between them.

  • Softball: 11 in. or 12 in. circumference regulation weight JUGS Practice Softballs
  • Baseball: 9 in. circumference regulation JUGS Practice Baseballs
  • Seamed, LeatherLast, Softie, Pearl and dimpled styles
  • Balls are a separate purchase
