12W 160GPH Solar Water Fountain Pump - Black Panel

Works great as long as there is sunlight. Any shadow or clouds shuts the pump off. Would love to find a battery for cloudy days and night running.

Not complicated to assemble but needs a lot of strong light to work effectively. I wish it had a battery option or plug in option too.

Solar panel is quite large. Made one of those do it yourself fountains with some pots laying around. Did a trial run on driveway in overcast weather. Took it apart and moved it to permanent location and seems to work pretty well during the day so far. Hose is long and can be cut to size. My fountain is not sitting straight do to ground but waterfall is on side I can see.

This is the 2nd POPOSOAP solar water pump I've put in my garden. The first one I put in last year, and it's still working great! It's so simple to set up and use, especially since I've come up with what I think has to be the easiest DIY garden fountain. Get yourself some planter inserts. I intentionally didn't fill in all the gaps so you can see the orange insert. They're perfect because there is a hole directly in the center. The insert sits high enough to allow plenty of room for the water pump underneath. Add rocks to the top and voila! I might add dirt to the larger pot and plant some flowers. I've also discovered that the bubble spout is the most attractive to the birds and will only spill over the edge in a strong wind. Every garden should have a water feature and POPOSOAP is easy, affordable, and just lovely.

At first when I took it out of the box it wouldn't run when I hooked it up even in full sun. I almost sent it back until I checked the voltage of the panel and saw that was good. So I immersed the pump in this bucket of water and it started right up. Take it out and it immediately stops running. So it has built in run-dry protection which is nice. If you put it up off the bottom of your pond you can avoid accidentally draining it completely.Even on a heavily overcast day this thing is pumping water and in full sun it's a great fountain. It is easy to change the foam filter and it came with two extras. They are simple to rinse out and you could make some out of any open cell foam if you needed to.The suction cup feet are very aggressive and hold tight. They are easy to lose when you pull the housing off to change the filter so be careful.In all this is a nice little fountain kit.

The system is working as we expected. Solar panel is easy to handle and we are going to mount it for sun position. Pump has been working great.

Powerful motor. So glad I switched my fountain over from Electric to solar. I don't have to worry about turning it on or off everyday.

Muy fácil de ínstalas y trabaja correctamente lo recomiendo

This solar fountain has three features that I particularly appreciate : The first is that the solar panel is larger than the panels that have come with my other fountains -meaning that it is highly responsive to almost any amount of sun . The second thing I appreciate is the long cord that enables me to place the panel some distance from the fountain. That permits me to place the fountain in the shade, and the panel in the sun, where it needs to be. Setting the fountain in a shady spot makes it harder for algae to grow in the fountain . Algae being a green, growing thing , loves the sun -and fouls fountain pumps.( Placing the fountain under a tree can also mean collecting leaves in the fountain , I haven’t completely resolved that issue.) The third thing I particularly appreciate is that there is a dial on the fountain motor that makes the height of the fountain slightly adjustable. The motor is larger than many I have seen and powerful.All in all this is a nice fountain that comes with a variety of attachments .Highly recommended.

I like not having to unplug the fountain every night. The solar panel does not work at all on cloudy days. It also shuts off when the sun is not shining directly on the solar panel, even in bright afternoon light.
