Discover how your battery-backed water display operates. This guide explains
the key principles behind this sustainable and reliable system, helping you
maximize its performance throughout the year.
1. Basic Operating Principle
Integrated Power System
Solar panel converts sunlight into electrical energy
Built-in battery stores excess power for later use
Intelligent controller manages power distribution
Variable flow pump adjusts output based on available power
Performance is reduced on very cloudy or overcast days
Water Circulation System
Self-contained reservoir stores and recycles water
Pump draws water from reservoir for continuous circulation
Integrated design ensures efficient water flow
Regular water top-up required to maintain optimal performance
Water Flow System
Submersible pump sits within the water reservoir
Water is drawn up through concealed tubing
Creates an attractive water display as it emerges
Water naturally returns to the reservoir
2. Seasonal Operation
Peak Season (May to August)
Maximum performance with extended running hours
Optimal operation between 9am–6pm
Battery provides reliable evening operation
Consistent performance in summer conditions
Reduced output on heavily overcast days
Shoulder Seasons (Spring & Autumn)
Reduced running hours due to lower sun intensity
Best performance between 10am–4pm
Battery backup helps maintain display
Operation depends on daily sunlight levels
Cloudy days may pause operation
Winter Considerations
Limited operation on bright, clear days only
Requires direct midday sun and correct positioning
