Beginner planning solar pond aeration

[45North]

Those are usually 120V AC pumps. If you were closer, I'd set you up with an amazing no battery system for next to nothing. I've been wanting to do one of those daylight systems, but I have no pond. My neighbor has one of those pumps for his septic system he no longer uses. Think I might try a batteryless this summer that only costs $25. Really, never use battery voltage panels.

For this non-critical daytime only aerator seems like the perfect application for a bare bones, no battery, DC pump.

There are also small 12v diaphragm air pumps for inflating tires.
