Thank goodness for this vid!!! I struggled to figure this system out trying to follow another vid that skipped over the particulars. You saved the project!
Awesome video. Correct the instructions are cr*p, but thanks to you voila! sorted. I had a couple of leaks in the main hose , and to remedy that I used Stormsure waterproof tape, and that fixed it for me - damn good tape. Thanks again. Saying Hey! from the UK
Wow nice glad my video helped out and agree the instructions were not very good that came with it I found better ones online and figured out the rest! Cheers
Looks like the answer to a very simple question with the technology we have today. Do you think this will work with a 75 foot long stretch of blueberry bushes right next to a little watering hole? It's 15 bushes and the watering hole always has standing water but it is obviously a bit murky/dirty.
@@Gear_Now Tried it out and posted a vid under this account. Worked like a charm.. the water flow is pretty diminished towards the end of the line but I'm honestly surprised by this thing.
Thanks for sharing this, brilliant explanation and tips. Am considering getting one of these, it seems more substantial, bigger solar panel etc than the cheaper small panels with the ground stakes. Is the system still working ok and have you noticed any issues with it? Do you think it’s weatherproof enough to be installed and left outside all year round? Many thanks
It’s been up ever since I got it and works perfectly everyday I have not had it a year yet but seems to be very well made not much to go wrong maybe the panel or pump after years I have been extremely impressed how well this works now I just fill that Water bucket like once every 2 weeks
my anti siphon valve just leaks and sprays everywhere at the tube piercing connection when the pump is on. also the connection you make with the tube piercing tool for the waterline that goes to the plants leaks also
You have to be very careful when using that piercing tool or it will leak all of mine are completely fine including the siphon valve i showed it working in real time and it’s still going today perfectly
This was last year a very bad storm came through and destroy it I just did another video on a newer Wi-Fi system I installed in my standing garden check it out ruclips.net/video/L5sT9OHQqJc/видео.html
The water sensor error (e1) keeps going off even though they is water in the tank. I confirmed the water sensor probe is totally submerged. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Unplug the sensor check connection maybe even spray some wd40 on the connection reconnect and make sure both are completely in the water reset everything.
seems this might be something want to follow up with the manufacturer I have had zero issues with mine so if you get answers and get it working would be great to hear what it was for future.
I agree I have definitely been more mindful of that and worked to improve I have a tripod now and someone that helps hold the cam And thanks for the constructive criticism and not just name calling and being rude like others do 🤗
Got it, set it up, and nothing but E3 error all the time. Charged for two solid days. Pump starts/stops while pumping. No easy way to get answers, manual is useless, no info online.
I'm not sure what that means maybe the water sensor not reading correctly or something try messaging the seller or the company through the website that's what would I do?
@@Gear_Now So after some experimenting, it seems like there is too much back pressure. I disconnected the outflow hose from the pump, and the water flows great. I believe that I have too many blue drip spikes hooked up (they include dozens, though), and too many lengths of the narrowest hose running too far. I’m going to mess around more tomorrow, but I bet if I alter the hose scheme, it’ll work.

Thank you for explaining how the timing system works. You are the only one that did so.
Glad to be of help, hope it works for you!

Thanks glad I could help and yeah when I got it I couldn’t find anything on the actual install so trying my best to show that part
How much water do you think you use? Or how how long does your 5 gallon bucket last? Thanks
A couple weeks so like twice a month have to feel the bucket

I think it would work but that much might have to order additional hose

can you set the time when it irrigates? Morning vs. Evening?
Yes you can

@@Gear_Now Same experience
Great video! Do you think this setup would be adequate for one or more 4’x8’ beds? Thanks again,very helpful video.
Yes, absolutely
@@Gear_Now I bought one using your link!! Just got, psyched to set it up. Thanks for the video!
Do you perhaps have any idea if this could be hooked up to a water line instead of a bucket?
its needs standing water its a pump
Did u do a follow up video on its performance since?
This was last year a very bad storm came through and destroy it I just did another video on a newer Wi-Fi system I installed in my standing garden check it out ruclips.net/video/L5sT9OHQqJc/видео.html
What about raise beds will it pump to them?
Yes the pump has enough power to push water pretty easily!
Hey so does it keep working on cloudy days? Like does the green unit have a battery in it to keep going for awhile or is it strictly sun days only
Yes the solar panel just charge the battery that in the pump
So im looking at setting up a knock off Mr Stacky with a solar drip feed. Does anyone know the lift of the pump? Max I'd need would be 4' of lift.
Mine is installed about 3’ up and working fine
Do you think this would work in a pond
I think it would but have to watch for the filter get clogged a lot In A lake
Maximum how many days it can work? I need to go away from home for 1 month.
30 and have to watch you water level
The product link provided doesn't go to the product..it goes to accessories
That’s interesting I see that I’m going to see what happened and fix it

How do you reset?

pressure its too low. i need a powerful one
Yeah I can understand that
Good content, but next time please try focus camera and don't shake things about while explaining, motion sickness is a thing in vids too.
