Haven't tried it yet, not until next summer.
Here is a link I found to a 12vdc/solar powered pump

They might have some useful information.
Hope it helps.

Don't know how it might be applied to solar, but anyway here is an air powered pump that is very interesting, along with a short video of how it works.

Wow, this was a very interesting vid and concept. I know a couple, here, who have a peach orchard and getting water to it has been a problem... This was great... Thank You!

BTW, that lil gold dawg in the vid looks like Wolfey only she's darker :yes4: ...
