Lewisia 2W Solar Automatic Drip Irrigation Kit with Timer Auto Watering System Solar Powered Auto-Irrigation Set for Garden Beds Patio Lawn Plants Greenhouse Flower 50FT for 15 Plants

This is the second purchase for a system like this: a green non-digital programmer that is separate from the solar panel. I'm just going to leave a review for both. The units are almost exactly the same, just sold under different brand names: I bought the first one like this (just another brand name) after a nightmare situation with another pump unit that had a combo control panel/solar panel, and bought this one after having the other work so well (I bought this brand because the other unit was sold out, and they looked and were described exactly the same). I don't want to jinx it, but it works like a dream, especially after experiencing a combo unit! 1: The control panel and solar panel are separate, so you can place the solar panel anywhere you need it to charge, and place the programmer panel wherever is most convenient to get to. If you try a combo unit, you'll see what a headache that can be, so keep that in mind! 2. It holds a charge for a long time, so the pump works even on overcast days. 3: The watering stakes water under the top surface of the soil, so water isn't wasted, and the reservoir needs to be filled less often, which also means your plants are less susceptible to fungal infections and fungus gnats! This unit's water stakes are hard to put into the tubes, though, so keep that in mind :( 4: This unit can be expanded. I bought an extension kit and added 6 extra watering stakes to each of my units, and they both handle it with no issues. That's 21 watering strikes per unit. I need to refill my watering reservoir more often, but I'm no longer spending my entire mornings before work watering my garden! This is probably the best investment I've made for my garden, and my plants are getting more efficient watering now. I highly recommend this to anyone with a small garden or a container garden, especially if you use grow bags.

I've been using this for months and it works great. You want a large poodle of water for it so it will last as long as possible. I have to refill my large container once or week. very good quality and highly recommend.

Placed an order and received the item the next day. Seems in pretty good quality. Hopefully it will save my flowers on the front porch from drought when I am away. It’s lightweight and flexible and can be used anywhere where the irrigation system is hard to reach. Definitely worth a try

After 3 months, the pumps work reliably and solar is solid. The beep reminds me when to refill the tank. The only thing is that I can't fine tune the water level enough - 5 minutes every day is a little too much, and 5 minutes every other day is too little.

I set this up to water my plants while I was gone for five weeks but I didn't have time to test it and see if it was operating correctly. I was pleasantly surprised when I returned and everything was doing well. I'm going to get more to take care of all my flower beds. It's a real time saver.

Easy to set up. We may be gone gor extended periods so bought a large barrel with aerator to have sufficient water and to keep away modquitos. Very happy with ease of set up and performance.

After sitting in direct sunlight for 6 hours, unit would only operate on manual for a few seconds before cutting off. This is on first use. All lines were clear. valve installed correctly. I believe the battery was faulty and would not hold a charge.

The device stopped working, but the vendor responded to my inquiry promptly and replaced the pump.

I wanted to wait a few weeks before reviewing this solar drip irrigation kit, and I’m glad I did. After using it consistently, I can say it has worked very well and has made watering my container garden much easier. The setup was surprisingly straightforward. The instructions were easy to follow, and I had everything installed in under an hour. I connected the system to about 15 potted plants, and the included tubing and drip emitters were enough to cover them all. The solar-powered timer has been reliable, automatically watering on schedule without needing batteries or an electrical outlet. Even on cloudy days, it has continued to operate without any issues. The drip emitters provide a steady amount of water, helping keep the soil consistently moist without overwatering. The biggest benefit has been the peace of mind. I no longer worry about missing a watering day, especially during hot weather or when I’m away from home. Overall, this kit has exceeded my expectations. It’s easy to install, works reliably, and has saved me a lot of time. In fact, I’ve been happy enough with its performance that I will purchase two more kits to expand my watering system. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable and convenient automatic irrigation solution for potted plants or a small garden.

Love it. Works amazing for me.

I can't speak for longevity as I've just set it up, but I was so surprised by how well this worked that I just had to come and write a review right away! I ended up buying a small vacuum line Y fitting for a car, turns out to be all these are, so if you need extra T's and even some Y's, just go to your local auto parts store and ask for their smallest vacuum line fittings! The Y was used for splitting the flow into the regular 15 spikes, and the the other hose I tied a knot in the end and poked little holes in the hose with a needle, and made the world's tiniest soaker hose! All of the spikes as well as the tiny soaker all drip at the same rate, one small drop about every second. Pretty Cool idea! This will be perfect for watering while away on vacation.

Very useful item , had some initial niggles in setting it up , but now working very well

Easy to hook up and has worked great for the last 3+ weeks. Do need to make sure your rain barrel or supply water is clean.
