hi all.
by this i mean hand operated pumps. im really thinking like grampa and gramas old pump in the back yard. pump the lever and out comes water. i looked at some online and wow, they are a bit pricey.
i have ideas like pounding a stake in a small pond or creek bank, attaching a hand pump to it in a permanate or nuts and bolts so you can take it off way. i assume you attach a hose that hangs in the water for sucking and then pump away.?? easy container filling in the outdoors??no electricity needed. possible to hide pump in the outdoors so it wont be found. how far can it push water??? 100 meters through a hose?? up a small hill???
what about attaching it to a tree close to your grow. 50 meters of hose srtetching to water source. and another 20 or more meters on the out end of the pump leading to your grow.
with 100 meters of hose i could water 2 different spots in opposite directions of each other just by carrying pump to the spot and attaching it to the already hidden hose. hook or hang on a tree and hand pump.
tell me what you think. why havent i heard more on this? direct me to some experiences you had with these pumps.
i think these things just explode water out. of course size of piston would matter but i think a smaller one would work real good.
any insight welcome.
thanks, little j.
