Low Cost Solar Pumping System
A simple, low-cost solar pumping system for irrigation using available and proven components. No batteries, no electronics. Now that solar panels cost under $1 per watt, this is an attractive alternative to small gasoline-powered pumps. Suitable for irrigating up to 1/2 hectare from a surface water source.

great vid .....have u tried two or more pumps in series (closed system) to improve head.
i am planning to use some pvc pipe/spigot fitted over second pump intake (remove screen) and used as inline boost. air lock may be a issue but may be worth a try -
Hi Bill, thank you valuable video you share with us, really I would like to know How much cost is it, completely for this Equipment ?
-
Thank you for your jobI am very interested can I contact your phone or your email please
-
oh my god man just shut up and tell us how to do it. worst video on the internet.
-
I think if you can connect in series it can pump at a higher head
-
Great Solar trailors, it's cool!

Hi Bill, I suppose similar pumps could be salvaged from other cars, too. I will be happy to get informed about your experience once you did it, as I am planning to build something like that for a tiny farm in Bulgaria...

That is quite amazing

Very Important simple Technic.....Thank u sir for the simple cheap demo u have presented to the world ......Salute From uganda......sir

wow never thought that you could use solar for water pump.. great idea..
-
I suppose a marine bilge pump of that sort is not designed for permanent use as required for irrigation. Also, replacing the pump once a year seems to be quite un-ecological. Can't you find a pump that's made for petmanent use? For example something that is made for water circulation in a houses plumbing?

I commend you on your job sir. We built a similar system in namibia but on a smaller scale when I was there building communication towers. It's amazing the cooperation you get from the locals when you provide them with a means to get water to their village without having to carry it in buckets daily.
