Hey A, Stephen Bach tells me you're pumping, or will pump, water with a 
battery-
free PV system.  Is that right?  I looked into that, and it's done out west 
for watering 
lonely cattle herds, but I figured nobody around here knew how to install one.

I understand that it takes a different type of pump, i.e. a slow and steady 
pump 
instead of the usual type here that turns on briefly for a strong flow to a 
pressure 
tank.  

I understand also that one would need to pump it to a tank which could 
gravity 
feed down to get pressure, but Stephen mentioned pumping to a pressure tank.  
What do you know?
