Lewisia 10W Solar Automatic Drip Irrigation Kit Auto Watering System 115FT for 30 Plants

I am editing my review because after the first unit failed after about 3 months the company contacted me and replace the pump that broke. In my book great customer service is huge for product support. The concept is terrific for those small gardens that are not on an irrigation timer system and far from a water source. It keep all of our vegetables alive when we were out of town.

E1 code?Firing up the system after winter and it flashes E1 and does not pump. I am unable to find the code list anywhere...

E3 code keeps coming up and the pump pulses and then conks out.If you repeatedly turn it on and off it will catch and water you plants. I have pulled a dripper off at the farthest point and it is moving water, it just will not do it continuously. There is no E3 code in the manual and nobody seems to know what it means.Edit: After contact from the company, I changed to a 4 star. Make sure you have enough drippers on the line. They recommend 40. I did that and it worked. Also, I figured out I put the drippers on the water line to tight and they weren't moving the water as designed. Once I corrected my setup it is working just fine.

Easy to use, intuitive settings, more tubing and emitters than I needed. We got a solar watering system for the plants on our new back deck and it worked so well we got this one for the side deck. We set this up shortly before going on vacation and kept our fingers crossed. When we returned after a week, when the daytime temperatures at home were consistently in the 90s, the plants looked great! This system was super easy too set up; we strung the drip lines on cup hooks under the edge of the deck so nothing would get tangled in them. We used a 15 gallon barrel as the reservoir. My sister came by to check on things and refilled the barrel when needed. Even after returning home, this system kept the plants healthy, since I didn't have to remember to water every day. Next year, I will be inspired to add more pots and plants to the side deck, since I have extra parts for this system. Given the cost of plants and the time invested in them, this system paid for itself in one season.

Paid the extra money thinking i was getting quality to last. Should of settled on the $30 one and maybe my crops wouldnt be toast

The media could not be loaded. Good the device that was sold by Ankway but looks identical. Device is great when it works but both had internal flooding, damaging the circuit board and rendering the device unusable. I like the stake device and watering right at the roots without risking evaporation. Wish they would use a better pump or make spare parts available.

I really like this Lewisia 10W Solar Automatic Drip Irrigation Kit. I got it because I ran out of space in the garden closest to my house and had to go further up the hill where it's difficult to get water. I needed something to water the potato plants I had up there without me having to haul water or remember them all the time. This Solar Drip Irrigation system worked great for it. I put a large rain barrel next to the plant, ran this system down the line of plants, put the hose in the barrel, and now I just come back and check them every few days and add water to the barrel if needed. It worked very well. I recommend this product.

This is cheap and unreliable.
