solar fountain

[Mona]

Hi. I'm new to the group & have a few questions.

I want to buy a solar fountain for our garden pond.
Has anyone any recommendations? (I'm in the UK.)

Will the fountain only work when the panels are in
full sunlight, or will the panels also be charged in
cloudy daylight conditions, enough to keep the
fountain functioning (albeit at a slower speed)?

TIA.

Cheers,
Mona

if you add a battery, and the panel is big enough to produce more juice than
the pump needs, the battery will keep the pump moving during short cloudy
periods. how short depends on the amp hour of the battery and the wattage of
the panel compared to the wattage of the pump.
