petfeedd With Multiple Servos

This is an old post!

This post is over 2 years old. Solutions referenced in this article may no longer be valid. Please consider this when utilizing any information referenced here.

I’ve had several people write me recently and ask about how to use petfeedd with multiple servos. It’s actually now my most common feature request, so I will definitely be sure that that is added in the rewrite that I am currently working on.

In the meantime, you can run multiple instances of petfeedd using Docker, each pointed to a different servo. I would be sure to offset each servo by a few seconds to be sure you don’t have any voltage drop issues with the Raspberry Pi.
