    Hi All,
    I am in the middle of a garden overhaul and was wondering if anyone could recommend an online or shop based supplier of solar or rechargeable powered battery, water fountains.
    I've seen a couple online but would love to have the option of physically seeing one or have a recomendation of a supplier that someone has used.
    Does anyone have one? I am looking for a relatively small one, base size less than a meter square.
    I believe you can get a solar panel which recharges a 12v car battery in the fountain. If this is the case, can the panel be used to charge another battery for use with a garden shed light?
    Any advice or knowledge much appreciated.

    Kippy
