Solar Fountain Pump Kit With Separate Panel, 1.8 W Upgraded Water Pump, 3 M Cable & 4 Nozzles for Bird Bath, Outdoor Pond, Patio Garden and Fish Tank (Black)

Ordered late last night and just arrived. I wanted a very small water fountain to filter water and attract wildlife for my mini pond. The pump works as soon as light hits the solar panel and it’s quite a cloudy day. Perfect size for my little pond, see photos for reference on size (paper is A4). Super easy to use. I’ll update if I have any problems but as we’re only 10mins in, all is well! EDIT: later in the day full sun came out, the fountain shot higher and powerful (because my pond tiny it was watering the plants nearby) - I’ve taken the interchange nozzles off so water doesn’t shoot up now, just a constant trickle in water which suits this better).

Good product easy to set up not difficult to fit, fast efficient delivery would order again

Bought on the 10th May to replace our previous fountain that we had for 5 years. It was working perfect fine until 15th June it just stopped working completely. Cleaned the sponge, disconnected the solar panel then reconnected. Last just over 1 month

For the price this is great value. It’s helped me a create a little quaint oasis at the top of my garden. I love it!

These little solar fountains are great. They don't really stick to anything with those little suckers so I wedge them in with rocks, but work really well in good light and even spurt a little in overcast weather. I'm a bit annoyed I didn't see that it was 2 for £12 in the second option of the listing, I added 2 separately to the basket instead of clicking on the other option for x2, so I paid twice the price, but I've reordered another 2 today and seen it so at least today I'm getting them for 12. They create more bubbles in my pond than my little pump so I'm hoping they will keep my fish happy. The pond has stayed clearer since putting them in. They look so discrete too, they're much smaller than my floating fountain that barely works, but have a stronger pump due to being able to face the solar panel in a better direction. The floating ones don't really face the sun properly. These are much better. I've even tilted mine at an angle so the water stream makes more bubbles, but you could glue them to a rock and have them bolt upright to create that standard water fountain shape. No real set up required, just place the panel facing the sun and put the pump part in the water with the nossle sticking up from the surface, add whatever attachment you prefer, just clip it on. I use the extension tube and one of the round spray nossles for a sprinkle but I'm planning to have one with just an open tube with no sprinkler to make a little more of a splash in the corner to give the fish more bubbles. The cables can just be hidden in the water too, everything is waterproof.

Needs to be in direct sunlight. Does not work in shade. No on/off switch. Very small solar panel. Does not store energy in battery? Does not have a flow up/down switch. Cable length ok. Not overly powerful but does the job I wanted it to do. Just Ok for a tenner.

Not really working very well. The solar part was very small, so disappointed

Excellent small but very efficient solar pump

Für meinen Miniteich mit 150l habe ich eine kleine Pumpe gesucht, die das Wasser bewegt. Für diesen Preis kann man nichts verkehrt machen, also habe ich das Produkt gekauft. Sie kommt mit verschiedenen Auslassdüsen, die alle relativ knapp unter der Wasseroberfläche sitzen. Wer die Pumpe so nutzen möchte, sollte sie auf einen unter Wasser liegenden Stein stellen, oder den Auslass mittels eines Plastikrohres (für Aquarium, Zoohandel) verlängern, und dann den Aufsatz aufstecken. Ich habe stattdessen einen Aquarienschlauch angebracht und die Pumpe mit dem abgebildeten Brunnen verbunden. Die Förderhöhe bei mir beträgt 60cm. Das Video wurde bei leichter Bewölkung aufgenommen, auch dann läuft die Pumpe noch. Die Behauptungen hier, die Pumpe liefe nur mit VOLLER Sonneneinstrahlung, sind nicht korrekt. Wichtig aber ist, dass das komplette Solarpanel unbeschattet ist und "gen Himmel" gekippt. Das Kabel zum Solarmodul ist wirklich lang, so dass das Modul an einem optimal exponierten Platz vollsonnig angebracht werden kann. Teilbeschattung sollte vermieden werden, die Pumpe benötigt jeden Quadratmillimeter des Moduls. Sie läuft seit mittlerweile 3 Wochen ohne Ausfälle bei Sonne. Um den Motor zu schützen, habe ich sie in einen Block Aquarien Filterschwamm gepackt und einen Stein hinzu gegeben, damit sie immer unter Wasser liegt und damit das Flügelrad nicht so schnell verdreckt. Nachtrag 01.09.24: Die Pumpe läuft noch immer. In den Bildern seht Ihr meinen Aufbau. Im ersten Bild erkennt man den wirklich kleinen Schwamm vor dem Flügelrad. Je nachdem, wo Ihr die Pumpe betreiben wollt, wird sich dieser, sowie das Gehäuse um das Flügelrad, mit Mulm zu setzen. Wenn Eure Pumpe also nicht mehr funktioniert, nehmt einmal den Schwamm heraus und reinigt ihn gründlich unter fließendem Wasser. Auch das Gehäuse kann man öffnen und vorsichtig mit einem Wattestäbchen reinigen, damit das Rad wieder frei dreht. Im Zweifel fragt irgendeinen Aquarianer, die können allesamt Filter reinigen. Im folgenden Bild seht Ihr den Schwammblock, den ich als zusätzlichen Filter um die Pumpe gelegt habe (aufgeschnitten und reingesteckt). An den Auslass habe ich den Schlauch zum kleinen Brunnen angeschlossen. Die Pumpe fördert bei mir auf 50cm ohne Probleme. Wenn es bewölkt ist, fördert sie immer noch, aber nicht mehr so stark. Nachtrag 06.04.25 Die Pumpe hat den Winter im Teich verbracht, das Panel an seinem Platz. Auch bei Minustemperaturen hat sie brav gepumpt. In der letzten Woche plötzlich nicht mehr. Heute habe ich sie heraus geholt und den Umfilter (Bild), das Schwämmchen der Pumpe und das Innere des Flügelrades ausgespült und gereinigt, es war mit Mulm zugesetzt. Fazit: läuft wieder/immer noch. :-) Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Very easy setup! Works great! I wish they would make a way to control the flow. But excellent quality for the price

Funktioniert einwandfrei, allerdings muss die Sonne schon direkt auf das Panel scheinen....

Jay Fray delivering the blunt truth about this solar fountain pump kit with separator that arrived fresh but completely failed to work! Purchased this solar fountain pump kit with separator expecting functional solar-powered water feature for yard decoration or pond circulation. The pump arrived brand new but doesn’t work at all despite being fresh out of packaging. Solar panel functionality proves nonexistent with panel either not generating power properly, failing to charge internal batteries, or simply not connecting to pump motor electrically. Solar equipment must convert sunlight to power - this one doesn’t. Pump motor either won’t run at all despite adequate sunlight exposure, operates so weakly it can’t move water, or makes grinding noises suggesting internal mechanical failure preventing operation. Assembly or connection between solar panel and pump shows problems with components that don’t fit together properly, wiring connections that fail, or design flaws preventing proper system operation. The separator component either doesn’t function as intended, clogs immediately preventing water flow, or proves unnecessary complication that adds failure points without improving fountain performance. Quality control failure becomes obvious when brand new fresh equipment arrives non-functional. Products should work immediately upon installation - receiving dead equipment represents complete manufacturing or quality control failure. Troubleshooting attempts prove fruitless with pump that simply won’t operate regardless of sunlight conditions, water levels, or installation adjustments attempted. For solar fountain features requiring reliability, receiving non-functional equipment fresh from packaging demonstrates product quality problems warranting immediate return or refund. For water features needing dependable operation, invest in quality solar fountain pumps from established manufacturers rather than equipment that arrives dead despite being fresh. Jay Fray verdict: Complete solar fountain failure arriving fresh but non-functional. Total waste receiving brand new equipment that doesn’t work requiring immediate return!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Have purchased two of these and they seem to last a long time. They are still running. Will buy again as I come up with new ideas for their use. When I wrote the sentence you just read, It was true and still is. Now, it is three years later, and one of the pumps has begun to lose power, so I ordered another one to replace it.
