Hi Wrenches, Let me be a little more specific about this site. Potential client has a pond that he would like to move water to his garden. This pond is about 10 vetical ft below his garden, and the garden is about 200' horizontal ' away. He has a little shack about 20' from the pond that we will mount the solar. He would like to flood irrigate slowly throughout the day and just move a flexible hose around. As far as budget, client hasn't been real specific. I have looked at the Shurflow 9300 but was hoping for something that would operate at a higher flowrate in exchange for not having the high head capability (and perhaps less expensive). It does need to be PV direct capable.
