FAQ
Can this machine throw both baseball and softball without swapping parts?
Yes - the Heater Combo is designed to pitch real 9" baseballs, 11" softballs, and 12" softballs. You can switch between ball types as needed, making it a true dual-sport machine for households where both games are played.
Does the batting cage require a lot of space to set up?
The Xtender cage measures 24' long x 12' wide x 10' tall, so you'll need a reasonably sized backyard or open area. The fiberglass frame is designed for fast assembly and portability, so it can be taken down and stored when not in use.
Can I use this machine without the batting cage?
Yes, the Heater Combo pitching machine and feeder can be used independently of the cage. The cage is included in this package as a complete training system, but the machine itself operates on its own with a standard outlet or portable battery pack.
How fast does the auto feeder deliver balls?
The automatic feeder delivers one ball approximately every 10 seconds, keeping a steady rhythm so you can stay focused on your swing without interruptions or manual reloading mid-session.
What power source does the machine require?
The Heater Combo works with a standard household outlet or a portable battery pack, giving you flexibility to practice in your backyard, driveway, or at an outdoor field without needing a nearby power source.
