With all that said, I do aerate with a 10 watt solar panel, a geared 12 volt motor and a paddlewheel. it works great without a controller. I understand the issues and my simple setup has been working for a few years now in my brood ponds. So look at small solar setups for surface aeration. They are simple and cheep.
