i have a solar fountain the same they way i kept my solar fountain to stay in 1 place in the middle so it didnt float around and lose a lot of the water was , to place 2 stones underneath the wiring i just slipped them under the wire and they are just heavy enough to keep the fountain stable in 1 place
FANTASTIC💚 Luv the net bag idea👍. Mine had stick arms u could put on to keep it from getting stuck. At night it has lights that go on in place of water!
@@kelleebo1255 This solar water fountain I used all last summer and it is still working. As long as you don't let your bird bath or pond dry out for the motor to run with out water it should last a few years. Also make sure your water is clean that helps! As this fountain dose not have a filter. Sorry for the late reply.
I loved! The way you explain so simple and calm I loved it because I dont like to read instrucctions for everything unless I don't have any other choice and you teach! I give you my like and susctibe because I'll buy mine since I love birds and bird baths and as simple and easy is the best! Thank you!
I bought one and I love it,works perfectly well, the water flow is good, however it has to seat right on sun light at all times, I put it on the birdbath and the birds love it as well, they really enjoy their bath on hot days. I wish they will come in bigger sizes.
I love nature,I love watching the birds on my back yard,I feed them,change the water often and they really love all the attention they get because they come more and more,they have baths and look happy. THERE ARE about 10 house on my block and I m the only one that feed the birds eventhough I have two jobs and 10 grandchildren that I enjoy having around. I LOVE NATURE AND MY FAMILY.
I have a solar pump as well. I don’t use the fountain portion, I just want the little bit of overflow so as to not scare the birds, and it doesn’t push the water over the edge. Just a light little movement.
Most of these little pumps have a sliding gate where the water goes in, this can be adjusted to reduce the water flow through the pump to reduce the risk of water escaping from the pond/Birdbath.
I did the same thing as Michael, I reamed out the the holes with a small screwdriver , water doesnt spray as high and con be controlled. If you dont do this on windy days most of your water will go out of your bath.
Not sure why your fountain is pulsing like that (water shoots high then drops down, then back up again) I have a different one that I bought off of Amazon and mine does not do that. Once mine starts running the level of the water shooting up remains pretty consistent. Although I do notice that the water shoots higher when the sun is shining brightly. I am very happy with how the fountain continues to operate even with dim sunlight. It does stop working over night but as soon as it starts to get light outside the fountain will start pumping again. As some other people mentioned I also drilled out a couple of the holes (just made them slightly bigger, one at a time, until I was happy with the general height of the fountain water. The problem with having the water shoot too high, is that it tend to splash or shoot water out of the bird bath and then the water level in the bird bath drops quickly. I have also pinned the floating fountain to the center of my birdbath so it is floating but I constructed a frame with plastic "poles" so the floating fountain can't move too much from center of the birdbath. I did the rock thing for a while but found it was a pain having to take them out and put them back in and clean them all the time.
Glass is a supper great idea,I placed 3 rocks inside the bird bath and the pump in the middle, it works too and the birds love the rocks I watch them landing on the rocks to drink water.
Thanks! I can not find the same link to when I purchased this fountain but amazon does have a lot to pick from. You may find one similar! Amazon: www.amazon.com/s?k=solar+water+fountan&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
Make sure delivery date says 1 - 2 weeks bc if item is in Chjna, may not receive. Apparently, some unethical sellers are taking orders for items still in China, and even worse, some are taking $ and then claiming item was shipped. After 60 days, buyer will no longer be able to say item not received, so make sure item says 1 - 2 weeks, meaning in stock, in U.S. See channel, "Robbie and Gary Gardening Easy"
Thank you for sharing. I have a dumb question for you. I live in Germany and yes it very cold here. What do I do with the battery or how I disconnect the battery so that nothing will happen to it? Thanks again for your video, my wife and I love our pump. Shouts from Mainz, Germany..
I live in Canada and when it gets cold I store the fountain in a place that will stay somewhat dry and away from sunlight so it does not want to run. Thanks for watching.
If the motor will detach from the floating solar panel, it will stick to the concrete. Your problem is that the suction cups are too close to the solar panel. If you try to attach the motor to the birdbath it will submerge your panel. Right?
Use a small flatter ceramic plate, suction the fountain to the plate and the plate will keep it in place. If the spray is still too high. Open up the holes in the spray tip one by one till until you get the height you wish. 👍🏻
Thank you so much for this video. My kit did not incude the connecting pipe so have contacted the seller. My birdbath isn't big either so might not even need it, but still would like to have all the parts just in case. Looking forward to seeing the video on your birdbath. Who knew boxes and concrete lol.
I live in a rural area & can't buy these in the store so I ordered 1 off the internet. I never got my pump & the company deleted the tracking information & its website is gone, $30 lost. I still want to purchase a solar fountain from someone reputable.
Renee Workman - I live in a rural area, too, so nearly everything I buy online is from ebay. I buy outright, I don't do bidding. I guess it's been about 12 years that I've been buying there and hardly any problems. The few times I've had problems with dealers, ebay issued me a refund. I just bought a solar fountain from there and I have two more coming that are run by a power bank which will be great for on the porch or in the house.
This is the one I got from Amazon and for me it arrived AOK. It's not the cheapest but is very well reviewed. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083BVKVML/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Walmart buy a 10 dollar Wok paint outside add small stones so birds don’t drown can even make your own base blocks from Lowe’s. Or just take same idea and sit it n your bird bath less lost water😎👍
I bought one of these and it's presence in the birdbath freaked out the birds so they went missing.....and 1 month later the solar panel decided to die. Cute idea though
You should report it immediately to Amazon bc right now some unethical sellers are taking orders for products that are stuck in China. I heard about this on another channel. She said you only have 60 days to claim you didn't receive it. Even worse, some are making fake claim that item shipped so they can take the money. But if item is in China, and money is taken, will not be able later to say item didn't come. So contact Amazon now or dispute your payment. See channel, "Robbie and Gary Gardening Easy"
Patti Hopkins Report to seller ... AMAZON is great at holding sellers to responsibility. Your report to seller goes to AMAZON first and they relay without YOUR email addy to seller giving them two days to contact you THRU AMAZON and settle or they get banned from AMAZON and AMAZON makes good on your purchase refund... way to go ! Best to you.
@@pattihopkins3929 it looks like @Sophie Seeker in the comment above knows how to. She put good instructions for getting resolved with Amazon. Here is the video where (Robbie and Gary Easy Gardening) had to fight to get her money back on solar fountain. It was in ebay. ruclips.net/video/7puePdCdPeM/видео.html
I brought one and it only works if the sun is out otherwise it doesn't work very disappointed I live I the uk so our weather is not sunny every day Not happy at all
When I bought this it was round $27.00. Depending what seller you buy from. The Seller I bought this item from Was on Amazon and I see its not the same seller. I do have links in the video As I have seen can also be purchased on the WISH app. Hope that helps. The Name you can looks for is called a sunflower shaped solar water fountain.
Have you thought about painting the birdbath? I think it would be more attractive if painted blues and greens. That would compliment the water fountain.
If you pin it in the center with rocks that helps then others are saying you can drill out some of the holes a bit so they are wider so the water doesn't shoot up as high. Either way I guess you are supposed to wash out and put new water in daily anyway so there is maintenance involved. I didn't realize that before I got it but I still like it.
On May 14 th I ordered one from a site called WISH. They keep moving my order delivery date out. Now it's Aug. 22 ND. DO NOT order from them you can not contact them. Lesson learned. I will order from Amazon
i have a solar fountain the same they way i kept my solar fountain to stay in 1 place in the middle so it didnt float around and lose a lot of the water was , to place 2 stones underneath the wiring i just slipped them under the wire and they are just heavy enough to keep the fountain stable in 1 place
That's exactly what I did to a kid filling up the birds bath to often, now it an last for a day or two
FANTASTIC💚 Luv the net bag idea👍. Mine had stick arms u could put on to keep it from getting stuck. At night it has lights that go on in place of water!
i bought 2 of these last year and they work so good, i love them!! they work for awhile on cloudy days until the solar charge wears out...but oh well
How long did it last, wondering if I should buy 2 so I have one when the first on stops working.

Also the pump works better if its not suctioned to a surface.
You also can enlarge the holes by Saturn iron.
I bought 2. They are cute and nice! I love them!
This is only 1.4 W and it works quite well! I wonder how much better the2 W could be.
Yes! Please we want to see how you made the fountain! Thanks for sharing 🙋🏻♀️
does it make a noise? or silent

Do you have a link or name of the one you used? All the videos I've seen shows them pulsing.
Very nice...So it doesn’t move just put a piece of flat clear glass carefully in the water and attach the suction cups to it.👍
Oh. Good idea. I bought one of these for a bird bath, but it moves a LOT and seems to frighten them. I'll try the clear glass idea. Thanks.
Glass is a supper great idea,I placed 3 rocks inside the bird bath and the pump in the middle, it works too and the birds love the rocks I watch them landing on the rocks to drink water.
It would have been great to see what type of water flow each nozzle produced!
Soooo GREAT; THANKS for sharing!!❤️

Great the one I got is not ass good so will get that one Thank you
Would have been nice if you had cut out the music all together so we could hear the sound of the water in the fountain 😉

Cost pls
It would be nice next time to tell us which one of the pumps this one was by adding! a link....
If the fountain stops at night, what is to prevent mosquitoes laying their eggs in the water?

Hello Queen
Lay on a plastic plate in water suctions good. Add water every 2hours,
They lay their larvae and hatch?!
How long did it take to get it???
This was last year when I ordered it and I think it took a week to arrive. They usually tell you when it will arrive.
I did enjoy the video. 👍
Very cool, but mosquitoes will still use that

Why does it flow then almost stop whole the sun is out? Shouldnt it be a constant flow?
Susan Anderson GeoEngineeringWatch.org
Mine is a constant flow but it's perhaps a different brand. One can just go on amazon and read reviews.
How much is this?
I’ve never seen this one on Amazon. Do you have a link?

Just put a few stones on each side to keep it from moving to the side.

I brought one and it only works if the sun is out otherwise it doesn't work very disappointed I live I the uk so our weather is not sunny every day

I take the stem completely off and let it gurgle....birds like that better and it saves water from blowing away.....

Funkutoys solar fountain
mine broke after 2 weeks junk!!!
I bought this pump from ebay.. direct from China ... $10.88 !!!
Have you thought about painting the birdbath? I think it would be more attractive if painted blues and greens. That would compliment the water fountain.
Unfortunately mine lasted 12 days returning it tomorrow.
yep mine was a piece of junk as well ...Made In Chime crap
Wwaaao ,so cute i like it.
Yr new friend here dn you.please keep in.touch
It’s crap ! Return it to amazon ! Waste of money
...Apart from that it's okay though.
All your water is going to DRAIN out of the birdbath, FAST! I mean in minutes which ruins the whole thing.
If you pin it in the center with rocks that helps then others are saying you can drill out some of the holes a bit so they are wider so the water doesn't shoot up as high. Either way I guess you are supposed to wash out and put new water in daily anyway so there is maintenance involved. I didn't realize that before I got it but I still like it.
Using my as you speak
How large is your birdbath?
On May 14 th I ordered one from a site called WISH. They keep moving my order delivery date out. Now it's Aug. 22 ND. DO NOT order from them you can not contact them. Lesson learned. I will order from Amazon
Not recommendable
pure junk mine worked for a month and now runs when it wants to
Looks like a cheap POS. Wonder if the people in the sweat shops who made it even know what it is.
The music on these videos is most annoying and absolutely not needed!
Good to know! Thanks for your feedback.
