[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 1236683, member: 3371"] If you're going to do solar water pumps this is the way to do it: [url]http://www.realgoods.com/product/solar+power/solar+water+pumping/shurflo+solar+submersible+pump.do[/url] It's 12 volts so it will run directly from a PV module, with no batteries. It pumps [B][U]slow[/U][/B] and quiet, but it pumps all day long. Of course it only runs in daylight but for your purposes you don't care. You'll just pump water into a trough for the deer. If it was for domestic purposes you would pump into a storage tank in daylight and draw from the tank at night. Total cost, not counting the well drilling and casing, should be less than $2000 You might be interested in one or more of these books. I highly recommend them.
