I am, however, a big fan of the name "BURN-E"... Wild guess says I know where that comes from. ;-)
Like I said, this was the first test, we tweaked it some more after this video. we have another piece of lexan that guild the balls better and put more pressure on the rollers. The final version wont have that pause or slight jamming seen now. Test with the trailer show that an average of 90+% of balls will make it in the trailer after driving up to the trailer and dumping .
