font-family:Verdana'>Hi all,<br>
We have a pond with rockery and small cascade (< 5-ft total head) with a
solar-direct pump for demonstration at our office. The Dankoff “Sun
Delight” pump that’s been running it for a year (plus at shows for
the last 8 years) has given out and needs to be replaced. We tried a 12-V bilge
pump but that lasted about a month.<br>
In previous subject threads (example below) back in ‘04 there were
several recommendations for the Oase AquaSolar pumps, said to be carried by AEE
and others. However, I can’t find these pumps in the AEE catelog, or even
on the Oase website.<br>
<br>
We ran the Sun Delight on a 75-watt, 12-volt module, but I’d like to
upgrade to a freight damaged, Sharp 175W (24 vdc) to allow the cascade to flow
more in low sun conditions.<br>
<br>
Any current suggestions, or sources?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
-Kelly <br>

Hi,<br>
Now with a retail store attached to our installing business, we are<br>
getting lots of requests for stuff of which we have little direct<br>
knowledge. The<br>
request of the month is for a small submersible pump which can run<br>
directly off<br>
a PV panel and make a small fountain. We saw one demonstrated at
MWREF<br>
but<br>
failed to get info on it. Anyone had good results from a particular<br>
pump...<br>
longevity, etc. It seems that a lot of people here in Vermont
have small<br>
ponds<br>
on their properties but no moving water.<br>
Any suggestions would be helpful.<br>
