Enjoy the soft bubbling of this water feature as water pools in the bowl and flows over the edge of the garden fountain can operate on solar and battery power when set to the on position. Plus, no plumbing is required. Once the feature is assembled, simply connect the cord from the pump to the solar panel and place the panel in direct sunlight. No more unsightly extension cords are running across the yard and hogging the outlets. Simply mount and conceal the panel in a sunny place and enjoy! The solar with battery backup option allows this fountain to harness energy even when there is no sunlight. The rechargeable battery pack charges throughout the day (with or without the fountain running) so the gentle water sounds can be enjoyed in the evening as well. Place this stunning, contemporary fountain anywhere and watch your space illuminate with soothing sounds and beautiful views!.
