Hi
I’m hoping someone can give me some advice
the wife and I built a small pond and waterfall during the lockdown, we were wondering if it would be possible to run the pump for the waterfall on solar, even if only for the summer months, or since I’m in Ireland the summer month lol
the pump is an old bilge pump off a boat
It’s
12v rated at 11Amps, fused for 15Amps
It would have to run around 10 hours per day
( especially if we put fish in the pond)
My question is
Could it be powered from solar energy
If so,
What size of panel /battery would it require
I have tried to do some research... hence the old and confused
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
