I had a solar fountain for a while, and it worked well, until it didn't!! I had to replace parts a couple of times, and the thing was always dirty and clogged, and then finally it just stopped working. I tossed it out. I invested in a hard wired fountain instead.

This isn't solar.

I don't want to have to run electricity.

That's another good point about my not wanting it...

It has a battery that you charge overnight. They say it will last a month on a charge.

No way would I fool with charging that battery. If I wanted or needed it, I'd get the fountain, ditch their pump and get my own electric pump on eBay. I have a number of fountains in the house and several for outside. I always keep an extra pump or two on hand in case one quits, as they often do. The fountain itself is about what they sell at Lowe's, Home Depot, or nurseries minus the S&H charges. Don't ever throw out a fountain because the pump quits; pumps are readily available many places including the big box hardware stores. I got my favorite fountain for outside several years ago at Walmart. It also has birds drinking from it.
