This pump is excellent for small solar off grid pumping systems, the three stage diaphram pump will pump water at about 400L per hour up 12-20m without trouble and will not allow the water to leak back down when switched off. Apparently this pump will run at 12V as well but I used it at 24V. After a year and about 20,000L the seal leaked and water got into the motor which deteriorated quickly after that and I had to buy another. One of the reasons for failure was running the pump for long periods where it got quite hot, the manual in this new pump specifies resting the pump every three hours of operation but I would suggest running it for 45 min on, then 15min break, and so on, you will need a 24V DC timer for that, also it is a good idea to set up a float switch to stop the power if the water runs out since the pump relies on water to cool it.Read full review

My only complaint is not being able to order a certain length of electrical cable at purchase point. This means having to waterproof the extension lead that is added, with no ideas of suggestions with the product. I lost one pump because of what I thought was a good water proof join. Also I would have preferred the 12v 40w model, but they are no longer available.

I was suspicious to buy at first but haven't looked back. I'm pumping 15m head over 300m using 32mm pipe and getting 5l per min flow rate. 12v drawing 5amp/hr. Hooked up to a solar panel, controller, battery and timer this pump is pumping fantastic. Best 100 bucks spent.

This solar powered pump sends water from the bottom to the top of my three tiered fibre glass pond. In current autumn weather/light conditions it works from approx 9.00 am till 4.30 pm on all but the cloudiest of days. I needed to raise the pump about 10 cm from the floor of the pond to avoid sucking up debris which happened on my first attempt. It has been fine since raising it and I'm really pleased with the volume of water produced. Three fish live happily with the pump. The solar panel was purchased separately. The pond aesthetics will improve as the new plantings grow!
