I presume you need to manually top off the system for evaporation? In rainy weather, is losing nutrients to overflow a problem? Any thoughts to using a 12VDC

In rainy weather, is losing nutrients to overflow a problem?
Any thoughts to using a 12VDC pump, powered by a solar panel and small battery? (In some places it is illegal to have an extension cord outdoors for months on end.)
Would it be easier/cheaper to ship a version that didn't include the kiddie pools or sand, with the expectation that someone could source those bulky items themselves?
- ph0rque 10y agoYes, you would need to top off in times of little rain. Unless you have a ton of rain, I don't see losing the nutrients as a problem. That is something I looked into. For $150-$200, you can buy a kit containing the DC pump, a battery, a solar panel, and a timer. That is something I considered, but I thought it would be simpler to start off with just one offering.
