Great news :D
It still runs at 2.7v.
And the manual feed button goes to ground, so if I recall correctly I can wire it the same as the Eheim feeder
Please do note I’m still running the arduino based controller NOT the reefpi.
The issue I’m running into now is that I have to set the amount of food before each manual dose, otherwise it won’t feed.
The food amount is adjustable between 1 and 8 with 8 being the largest amount.
On the plus-side, if I press both buttons at the same time it wil dose the smallest amount possible
And while writing this I found out that the button used for the adjustment of the amount, once you stop adjusting the amount it wil feed.
So if the smallest dose is not enough you just need 2 or more feed pulses from the controller to set a higher amount of food
