Why Solar Water Features Are Becoming A Trend
Are you hosting some parties or spending some family time in the garden this summer? Then you should know about the solar water feature that’s trending.Summers are a great time to spend some time in your cool garden, and it only helps if your garden is highlighted by a beautiful water feature. If you intend to host some parties or spend some family time in the garden this summer, water features can really enhance your experience.
More and more people are switching their conventional water feature for a better alternative — the solar-powered water feature. Here’s everything you need to know to upgrade your garden and stay in tune with the energy-conscious movement.
What is a solar-powered water feature?
Water features are close loop water systems that are available in myriad styles. You can choose a style that blends with the surroundings just like a dealer’s dress that matches the set in some themed live casino studios. Similar to decorative water fountains, the visible part is the downstream, the stream of water that flows downward due to gravitation.
Water in the visible part converts its potential energy into kinetic energy and flows to the reservoir. Behind the scenes, however, an external power source is needed to pump the water back to the higher altitude. This is achieved by the use of an electric pump. This is where solar-powered water features differ from their conventional counterparts; the energy for the external energy source comes from the sun.
Solar features make this possible due to the solar kit they come equipped with. The kit usually includes a small solar electric photovoltaic panel and a rechargeable battery. The panel, when exposed to the sunlight, converts the sun’s radiated photons into DC electric current. The rechargeable battery stores electric energy during the day so it can operate the pump at night as well.

Benefits of a Solar Feature
Here are a few reasons why you should consider upgrading or buying a solar feature for your garden.
> You’ll save electricity costs
If you already own a conventional water feature, you’ll see a huge impact on your electricity bill. Keeping your water feature on for just a few hours can bump up your costs, but the solar feature is a completely different story. You can keep it on for hours on end and you won’t see any uptick in your bill. If you don’t already own a feature, then installing a solar one will not affect your electricity costs whatsoever.
> Low Environmental Impact
The world is becoming increasingly environment-conscious. More people care about protecting the environment than ever before, and if you belong to the movement, it’s only obvious what you need to do. Solar features don’t contribute to harmful greenhouse gases proving to be an eco-friendly option worth considering.
> Low maintenance
Solar features are highly favorable because of their minimal maintenance costs and efforts. All they require is changing the solar panel cord and batteries from time to time. Even cleaning is less of a chore as they gather much less foreign matter than conventional features.
> Flexibility
If you feel getting a water feature is too big of a commitment to your beloved garden’s aesthetics, the solar feature’s flexibility will impress you. It is a single unit, and therefore, can simply be picked up and relocated. This allows you to change the focal point of your garden whenever you want or to choose a spot with better sunlight depending on the season.

We've completed testing of our 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime, and discuss how this plug-in hybrid performed, and why it might outshine the Subaru Crosstrek Plug-in Hybrid. Apple made automotive news recently concerning the potential development of an Apple-branded car produced by Hyundai; we discuss these reports, and consider the many ways the auto industry and big tech companies are converging to impact the car market. Other topics include the Toyota Yaris GR, if a hitch-mounted bike rack could prematurely age your car's springs, and whether adaptive cruise control has an impact on fuel efficiency. ----------------------------------- Subscribe to Talking Cars on Apple Podcasts!

Product Review Video: Galaxy S21 Ultra review: Nailed it
Related Videos On: Galaxy S21 Ultra review: Nailed it
The Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G had one job: Be better than last year’s Galaxy S20 Ultra. The Galaxy S21 Ultra, while just as bold, is a refined second take on the Ultra concept. There is still the 100 times “space zoom.” But it’s easier to use. There is still the “big for sake of being big” design, but it looks much more appealing. And there is still a high price, but at $1,200 it costs $200 less than the S20 Ultra.

The Galaxy S21 along with the Galaxy S21 Plus and Galaxy S21 Ultra make up the 2021 S series lineup. In the US, Samsung was able to cut $200 off the price of all three phones. The company wisely moved the Galaxy S21 away from the uber-premium Galaxy S20 and closer to the Galaxy S20 FE.

FTC Video: Why Report Fraud? | Federal Trade Commission
Related Videos On: Why Report Fraud? | Federal Trade Commission
If you think you see a scam, talk with someone. Your story could help someone avoid that scam. Then report it to the Federal Trade Commission at https://ReportFraud.ftc.gov. Your story could help the FTC stop the scammers. ****************************** Transcript: We all see scams. Even if we don't buy into one, we all get the calls, emails, and letters. Why are there so many? Well, scammers see us all as targets, so they keep trying to get our money or Social Security number or account numbers. And they're good at what they do. They know how to knock us off balance just long enough to take advantage. That's why we need a plan. So if you think you've spotted a scam, what do you do? First, tell somebody. The call or email might seem urgent, but slow down. Talk to a family member, friend, or neighbor. Tell them the story. Sometimes just saying it out loud helps. Maybe your friend got a similar message or knows someone who has. Or your story might just help your neighbor avoid that scam. Then tell the Federal Trade Commission. The FTC sues scammers and works to shut them down. When you report a scam to the FTC, investigators use your information to build cases against scammers. Other law enforcement agencies can see the reports, too, and use them to further their own investigations. Your story makes a difference. Every report is a piece of the puzzle that lets the FTC see the full picture of what scammers are doing and then stop them, because scammers don't scam just one person. But you could be the one person whose story tips the balance, stops someone from falling for the scam, or stops the scammer. So tell your story. As soon as you think you see a scam, talk with someone, and then tell the FTC. ****************************** The Federal Trade Commission deals with issues that touch the economic life of every American. It is the only federal agency with both consumer protection and competition jurisdiction in broad sectors of the economy.
