Wrenches,
A neighbor is putting in a shallow decorative pond with a wooden water 
wheel. He wants to pump water (100 gpm but I think that is way too much) 
from the pond up 7 feet to turn the water wheel. Yes, I know that this is 
not the best use for power, but the world would be a sadder place without 
fountains, ponds, and water decorations. Instead of utility power I 
suggested using a solar powered DC direct drive pump, but he wants the water 
wheel to turn until 10pm. Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks in 
advance.
