Jugs 14-Softball Lite-Flite Feeder

The Jugs 14-Softball Lite-Flite Feeder is a ball feeder that gives the Jugs Lite-Flite Machine extended hands-off, consistent pitching. Fourteen Lite-Flite softballs sit in the drum, one drops into the machine every six seconds, and the round runs for 84 seconds without anyone touching it. It is 15 pounds of durable lightweight steel, easy to carry and light enough that it won't weigh the machine down. It attaches directly to the pad bracket with no tools. One power source runs both the Lite-Flite Machine and the feeder, so there is no second cord to run.

It takes Lite-Flite Softballs only, and the six-second interval is the clock a coach builds a session around. It is built for backyard players, youth leagues, high schools and colleges working on hitting without a second person at the machine.

Fourteen Lite-Flite softballs is one round of fourteen swings. Reload while the hitter walks off the tension, then go again. Two hitters alternating rounds means one is always resting while the other works, and neither of them is feeding the machine. For a longer block, a second bucket of Lite-Flite softballs beside the Lite-Flite Machine keeps the reload to a few seconds.

The six-second clock

How it works

A pitch every 6 seconds
The feeder releases a pitch every 6 seconds with nobody standing at the machine, so a hitter can work alone or two hitters can trade rounds.
Fixed interval
A full drum in 84 seconds
Fourteen balls at one every 6 seconds is ten pitches a minute, and a full drum is one round before somebody reloads. A coach running a long session either collects balls between rounds or keeps a second bucket at the machine.
10 pitches a minute
The same gap every pitch
Every pitch arrives on the same six-second beat, so a hitter working on a load and a stride gets the same amount of time to reset before each one.
Fixed interval
The same part with a different drum
Jugs builds two Lite-Flite feeders, and they are close relatives. Both weigh 15 pounds, both are durable lightweight steel, both attach to the Lite-Flite Machine with no tools, and both release a pitch every 6 seconds. The difference is the drum: 14 Lite-Flite softballs on this feeder, 18 Lite-Flite baseballs on the 18-Baseball Lite-Flite Feeder. Buy the one that matches the ball your program throws.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

14 softballs. The baseball version of the same part, the 18-Baseball Lite-Flite Feeder, holds 18.
The Jugs Lite-Flite Machine. It attaches directly to the pad bracket, with no tools required. The BP1, BP2, SP3, BP3, mini3, MVP, PS50 and Changeup machines take a version of the Jugs Carousel Feeder instead.
No. Only one power source is needed to run both the Lite-Flite Machine and the Lite-Flite Feeder, because the feeder taps into the machine's own supply.
Lite-Flite Softballs only. Lite-Flite Softballs are sold by the dozen and are a separate purchase from the feeder.
15 pounds, in durable lightweight steel. It is easy to carry and won't weigh your pitching machine down.
The feeder. The Lite-Flite Machine is sold separately and so are the balls.
We recommend one. A feeder sits alongside the machine and takes batted balls in the same line of fire, so a Lite-Flite protective screen protects both.
Choose by ball, not by capacity. This feeder takes Lite-Flite Softballs only; the 18-Baseball Lite-Flite Feeder takes Lite-Flite Baseballs only.
