Installation Instructions for Solar Water Pump Sunspray SE 1000 with Battery Backup:
1. Choosing the Installation Location:
Select a location for the solar panel that receives direct sunlight for optimal charging efficiency.
Choose a spot near the water feature or pond where the pump and LED light will be installed.
Ensure the solar panel is securely mounted, with the provided ground spike.
2. Mounting the Solar Panel:
insert it into the ground at an angle that ensures stability and maximum sunlight exposure.
3. Connecting the Battery Box:
Locate the battery box and connect it to the solar panel using the provided cables.
Ensure a secure connection between the solar panel and the battery box to facilitate efficient charging.
do not place the battery box in to the water, it should be located beside the pond preferably under some foliage.
4. Connecting the Pump and LED Light Module:
Connect the Solar Water Pump (Sunspray SE 1000) and the LED light module to the designated ports on the battery box.
Ensure the connections are secure to enable proper operation.
5. Operating the Pump and LED Light:
Find the switch on the battery box that controls the pump operation.
Press the switch to the ON position to start the pump. Press it again to turn the pump off.
Similarly, locate the switch for the LED light on the battery box and turn it on or off as desired.
6. Adjusting Pump Flow :
The pump has an adjustable flow feature, use it to customize the water flow according to your preference.
7. Dry Run Protection:
Ensure there is an adequate water level in the pond or water feature to prevent dry run situations.
The pump may be equipped with dry run protection, but maintaining proper water levels is essential.
8. Maintenance and Care:
Periodically clean the solar panel to maximize sunlight absorption.
Check the pump and LED light for any debris that may affect performance.
Monitor the water level to prevent potential issues.
9. Winter Storage (if applicable):

Litres per hour - At various pumping heights (Pump head)
A solar water pump with battery backup works by harnessing solar energy to power a pump that circulates water. The inclusion of a battery backup ensures continuous operation even when sunlight is not available. Here's a step-by-step explanation of how it typically operates:
Solar Panel Absorption:
The solar water pump system consists of a solar panel, usually mounted in an area with direct sunlight. The solar panel absorbs sunlight and converts it into electrical energy through the photovoltaic cells.
Energy Conversion and Storage:
The solar panel generates direct current (DC) electricity when exposed to sunlight. This electricity is then sent to the pump and simultaneously used to charge the rechargeable battery within the system.
Battery Storage:
The rechargeable battery acts as an energy storage unit. It stores excess energy generated by the solar panel during sunny periods. This stored energy is crucial for ensuring the pump's operation during periods of low or no sunlight, such as at night or during cloudy days.
Pump Operation:
The solar water pump is connected to both the solar panel and the rechargeable battery. When the pump is initiated, either manually or automatically, it draws power from the battery. If there is sufficient sunlight, the pump may draw power directly from the solar panel as well.
Auto Operation and Battery Management:
Our solar water pumps are equipped with an automatic operation feature. The system monitors the battery charge level, and the pump starts operating only when the battery is nearly fully charged. This prevents the pump from running in the morning when the solar panel may not be generating sufficient energy.
Adjustable Flow and System Control:
The pumps has an adjustable flow setting, allowing users to customize the water flow according to their specific requirements. Additionally, there is also a sensor in place for dry run protection, ensuring the pump does not operate when there is insufficient water.
Continuous Operation:
The water pump can operate continuously as long as there is sufficient solar energy to power the pump directly or charge the battery. The battery provides a buffer, allowing the pump to function during periods of low sunlight or at night.
In summary, a solar water pump with battery backup utilizes solar energy to power a pump, with the added benefit of a rechargeable battery for continuous operation during periods of low sunlight. This system provides a sustainable and off-grid solution for water circulation in areas without access to conventional power sources.
I wasn't sure whether I'd be able to find a non-mains pump which could pump water along a 2 metre tube to a height of 40cm but this pump does the job perfectly and at a decent rate. Makes a lovely focal point, sound and really helps to oxygenate the water. Big thanks to Nathan for his great advice and expertise.
Perfect!
As many other reviewers seem to have done, we purchased this pump after an email enquiry that was helpfully answered by Nath.
It arrived promptly, we set it up today and it is working perfectly, and is powerful enough to replace the broken electric pump, used for a stone water feature with a bubble effect.
Our only issue with the installation was not realising that we needed to open up the battery and connect the wires before it would work. Nothing about this in the instructions, but luckily the PowerBee website came to our rescue! It might be a good idea to include a note with the pump, as it would have saved time and head scratching!
Thank you. We will recommend you.
Good service, great equipment
After initial advice from Nathan I purchased the SE 1000 to power my garden's water feature. Easy to set up, the panel has so far provided me with six hours of continuous power in a single session under very sunny conditions. Very satisfied with service and equipment.
Excellent pump
I was going to purchase an electric pump but having no outside socket running lead across garden wasn’t an option so I bought this having read the reviews. I am so pleased that I did. I have made a water feature using a pot on the edge of my pond so the tube connected to the pump comes out of pond fills the pot and the water then falls into pond. This pump works brilliantly, the spec says 5 hours running time when fully charged this has just run for 9 hours today before I turned it off excellent product
Powerful Solar Water Pump
very pleased overall with the 1000, produces a pretty good flow rate for a solar unit considering and works well, we are pumping through some tubing and made a cascade over a few yorkstone rocks we had in the yard, and it is effective as a pump, we reduced the diameter of the tubing with one of those plastic widgets so are actually pumping through 8mm rather than 12 mm as we needed to raise the head up to 1 meter height and it trickles away nicely, now getting ready to pack the unit away but thought I would recommend this product as we are very pleased with it, it is a good quality bit of kit for sure
Great bit of kit
using this more of a pump than a fountain, as I had green water so hoped to help the situation, it has worked wonders, pumping the water from the bottom of the pond to the top in a pool about 6 inches deep breaking the meniscus of the water this helps expose the water to the suns rays and it also pumps the bacteria from the bottom to the top, I also added an oxygenator and after 2 months my water is now clear :)
A fantastic Solar Power Fountain
First of all let me tell you I was a little dubious as to whether a solar fountain would actually work... I was wrong! these are very good fountains, my gardener installed it and it worked pretty much all summer, a good spray height and consistent operation, I am truly converted to solar power now.. and thank you Nath your dulsid tones are wonderful x
