Hi,

I want to make a cheap, basic water feature for our decking and a
solar-powered pump would seem the easiest way of doing this. Does
anyone have any experience of using these? - are they generally any
good, and what should I look out for?

I bought several of them a couple of years ago from different sources
hoping to make a water feature. I returned each of them to the shops and
bought an electric one. They are rubbish and a waste of money. For a
start
they only work in full sunshine and secondly I could pee a better flow
rate
than they produce.

I had a similar experience with solar lights :~(
More like glow worms !

Mine too.

Failed glow worm farmers are we.

I took the cheapo ones back and bought some 'proper' expensive ones instead.
They were just as bad as the others!
Took those back too and bought new lamps for the bedroom instead :~)
