Only released a small amount litter only when checking connection.

Bought new addition to litter Robot that supposed to ameliorate the litter refill task by having a storage and refill container that’s electrically connected and releases litter when it deems appropriate. So far only released when I tested connection. The litter is about a 1/4” below litter circle line.
I’ve got 7 cats and 2 LR4s serving them. I’ve been wanting the hopper for a long time.
Pros: * Always the right amount of litter. * No more over torque errors from over filling * No more wasted litter by overfilling * Seamless Install
Cons:, - No deterministic modification of litter hopper being low. Just presumptive based on whether or not the litter level raises after a dispensing. A sensor would be nice. - I’d like it to be bigger somehow? Not sure if practical, but it’s not small. But not really huge. Maybe a floor standing add on would help? - A little on the noisy side
Overall, a must have. If it was bigger, quieter and had a sensor for deterministic levels, it’d be 5 star. Don’t let that stop you from buying it.
Haven't been able too get it to work at all yet. I will work on it more when I have a day off, but so far I've taken it apart a few times and made sure everything is connected properly.
I purchased 2 of the new hoppers for my 2 LR's. Im so glad I did. They were easy to install and work perfectly. I'm so glad that I purchased them. For 6 cats, I'm changing out the bag and adding litter twice a week now. Very happy with them and so worth the price.
I’m so glad I bought this! I usually don’t buy the accessories but this seemed very promising & it did not disappoint. I’ve been using it for about 3 weeks now it works flawlessly.
I was always pretty bad about keeping the litter at exactly the right height. I would also overfill it when I would, leading to waste. This addition has been exactly what I wanted. The waste drawer fills up perhaps a tiny bit faster, but software updates should fix any issues like that.
Instructions were good on video but had to repeatedly reinstall the bonnet and litter hopper and finally got “no gaps” and hopper works perfectly now. My feral cat still refuses to use the robot but my other 2 love it.
