    I bought a pet fountain like the one all the way to the right of the screen (with the orange logo and the offset bubbler), but it became a real chore to keep it clean--lots of nooks and crannies for mildew to grow. So I’m replacing it with the fountain with the blue top. It’s arriving tomorrow. I already have one like it and it’s much easier to clean (I replaced its white “flower style” bubbler with a straw because those crevices attracted mildew too).
    Thanks for the ideas Robbie!

    That is so cool! 😎 I get it... use the power bank during cloudy weather or early early morning and dusk when the birds like to come. Then on full blown sunny days, just unplug the power bank and plug in the solar panel. 🌞 Either way you keep the same USB pump...just switch out the power source as needed. 👍😍

    I have 6 fountains running in my small back yard, 2 solar I"ve made with kid pails, cups, plates, and now 4 USB pet fountains with power packs I have to keep replacing with re-charged packs, mine only go 2 days. Might be our AZ high temps up to 116, avg 110... power packs are in pencil boxes but still get hot. Anyway, does this new USB solar panel recharge itself while in sun all day so it's running forever? So I don't need to be replacing it every couple of days? Thank you for all you do and great ideas you share with us, I have had fun being creative with these. My hummingbirds drink from my fountains but I've yet to see one take a bath, maybe they do at 5am. Anyway, other birds do, the tiny House Finches get in and splish splash, and drink, and I have 3 types of doves, some sit in the water on the plate. I have a pair of Crissal Thrashers who spend most of their days under my 4 citrus trees with the fountains, drinking water. Also 2 pairs of Gambel Quails with babies now rest in shade under an orange tree, I have seen an adult drinking. I now have juvenile Gila Woodpeckers who drink my nectar from hummer feeders and are drinking water, too. I love my fountains and helping these birds, this summer heat is brutal, they must love the water because before I made these fountains I did not have these regular visitors every day! Thank you!

      @jwater63 Месяц назад

      @lindanelson298 she uses the jumbo straws to make a lot of her fountains. I also use jumbo straws, and they work so much better than the tubbing, plus they stay straight. I rarely use the tubing anymore.

    • @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
      @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy  Месяц назад +1

      As jwater answered perfect, straws work great, they are cheap and stay straight. You can get a thin stiff wire to keep your tubing straight use painters tape to tape on the wire to your tubing, or a wooden skewer

  • @mikechaffee4331

    You plug the solar panel into the USB power bank and then plug the USB power bank into the pump? That way the sun hits the solar panel to charge the USB power bank while the USB power bank runs the pump 24/7. Is that the setup?

    • @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy

    I'm confused. The solar one stores energy to use when there isn't any sun??

    • @jwater63
      @jwater63 Месяц назад +2

      @dianepereira1860 I don't know if that one stores energy, but I have some of the round disk solar fountains that store energy, and they have lights. Once the sun goes down, they light up, and the water comes out. Plus, when you take them out of the water, they stop running until you put them back on the water. I bought some of the see-through green plastic glasses at dollar tree and put them on top of the fountains, and used jumbo straws to carry the water up to the top of the glass, which is actually the bottom because they are upside down. The lights filter through the glasses at night, and they are beautiful.

    Hi Robbie! Love the new solar panel, understand your instruction completely. Question, do you have to protect the usb/solar panel connection, not the panel itself, from getting wet like you do the battery pack? I live in rainy Virginia so mine would definitely be exposed to moisture. I used to live in So Cal so I really enjoy your channel. Kinda makes me feel like I'm back home. Thank you, muchly!

    I still don't have any birds coming, but my garden is very small and new, and I haven't put out a hummingbird feeder yet. Do you think it would be better to start with the hummingbird feeder or start with birdseed for other types of birds? I'm in USDA zone 9b and Sunset zone 14.
