Hey Guys,
All I can say is that system looks expensive.
Keeton Industries pushes a systen that appears to be a typical diffuser system but the power is supplied by a solar panel. It's supposed to be the only 24/hr run time operating solar system and has a battery backup. Looks like a package for a pond up to one acre is about $3500.00, but I'm wondering if you could go cheaper by using you own components other than the solar panel.
The only drawback I see is the smallest system only puts out .90 cfms.
The info can be found at:
http://www.keetonaqua.com/SolarAerator.html If anyone has the capital and know how it seems to me one could come up with a hybrid system of both wind and solar just like the systems used on housed to produce power.
Any entrepeneurs out there willing to take a risk?
