Landrip DIY Drip Kit for Indoor Plants, Automatic Watering System with 30 Days Programmable Timer, Ideal for Watering Plants During Holidays

Its smaller than expected but works great. It is very quiet when the pump is in use and easy to set up. Ive worked out that it pumps 250ml for 30s so 600ml for 60s. The max flow time is 99s and that can deliver 850ml (all without filter). So the max you can water is 850ml every hour which is plenty. I havent used this with the batterys so i cant comment on how well or how long they last... if the unit can last me 12 months ill be happy but i cant comment on how reliable it is as of yet. I would buy again

Update: first use this year two pumps just stopped pulling water, even removing the filter (the water is straight from the tap) didn't help. Seems to be a start-up problem only, if you force a little water to flow up towards the pump, they both started again. Took a few trials to get them back, but worked. Not sure if the little black rubber covers should be put back on the in/out-lets when storing, I'll try that. -- Original review: -- The pump works fine in the ideal set-up, it's simple enough to program and has redundancy in power through both USB and batteries. Regarding the picture near the top of the page showing it watering plants in a multi-level shelving system (similar comments applies to the one in the main description section), I would *love* to know how they get that to work. When the pump stops, water will run towards the lowest point it can get to ("Natures law, Daniel-san, not mine") and if that is a solitary plant outlet, said plant will get all the run-back from the other drippers. I suspect it might also be able to siphon the water from the reservoir through the pump since it seems to be below the reservoir water level, but I haven't personally experienced that. So when you set up plants for watering, make sure that all plants are level and the reservoir is below them. Run a few test-runs pumping into cups to see how much each dripper supplies (you should probably target a bit more than you would expect to account for resistance added by soil). There are pumps that have individual hoses for each dripper, which are simpler in that respect -- do yourself a favour and set it up a few weeks before you need it for calibration. Once properly calibrated, it works just fine.

Works great but batteries do not last long. I recommend you power it from a 5 volt mobile phone charger that can supply at least 1 amp. As it says it is drip watering so ideal for small pot plants or to keep your larger tubs watered during the day in very hot weather. Larger plants will still need to be manually watered. Gets it's water feed from a water butt or large bucket. It is not fed from the water supply to the house. If you want to use it in a greenhouse some sort of external solar charged battery pack may be better such as a power bank than using regular batteries.

I bought this system for my greenhouse, firstly claims it is an easy 15 minute set-up is wide of the mark, yes to actually run the tubing etc is simple, the actual set-up of the timer is quite hit & miss I've had the unit a month now & I'm still adjusting the settings, one tip for this is to initially run the drippers into a bowl to gauge the rate you want. Admittedly the unit is for indoors & I am using mine in a greenhouse but it is difficult to view the digital display in any bright light. It does run on batteries (not provided), I tried this using good Duracels but they lasted 3 days at best, so now using a dedicated USB supply, as I wanted this for a greenhouse with no power I'm quite disappointed that I've had to resort to this, hence the 3 stars. To be fair to the unit, if it was to be used solely indoors with a convenient USB supply it would probably tick most boxes, whilst away on holiday it was quite good although still needing adjusting when I got home. One final tip, when joining the tubing & drippers it's best to use hot water on the tubing & vegetable oil on the dripper connection. Update: for the last week ive been using Amazon basic AA rechargeable batteries in place of the Duracell, still running fine.

I bought this anticipating lots of travels in 2020, and here we are stuck at home due to coronavirus. Still, it's a good investment, my plants get watered without fail and they do grow a lot better now that they're watered regularly. I've had it for almost 3 months now, and it's still running on the first set of batteries (2 times per day, 2 minutes each time). Installation was pretty straightforward, the sparse instructions were enough.

Funziona perfettamente ed ha una discreta impermeabilità

Wir waren für zwei Wochen im Urlaub und brauchten eine Lösung für unsere Pflanzen. Dieses System funktioniert einwandfrei, war relativ einfach zu installieren und hat unsere Erwartung erfüllt. Zu beachten ist, dass das Gerät höher als das zu pumpende Wasser angebracht werden muss. Es kann mit Batterien oder Kabel betrieben werden. Wir haben vorher die Durchflussmenge geprüft und festgestellt, dass bei uns genau 10 ml pro Sekunde gepumpt wurden. Insofern haben wir es jeden Tag 90 Sekunden laufen lassen und 900 ml auf die "angeschlossenen" Pflanzen verteilt. Das ist natürlich zu beachten - jede Pflanze bekommt gleich viel Wasser, gleichgültig wieviel sie braucht. Uns ist tatsächlich eine eingegangen, weil sie halt etwas viel Flüssigkeit bekam ... für alle anderen hat es prima gepasst, bzw. in große Töpfe haben wir dann zwei Bewässerungsenden gesteckt. Die Schläuche kann man übrigens je nach Wunsch zusammenstecken, sie sind allerdings so fest verbunden, dass wir sie nun hinterher nicht wieder trennen konnten. Das stört uns allerdings nicht. Insgesamt ein gutes System, das wir im nächsten Urlaub wieder nutzen werden.

Celle-ci a l'air de bien fonctionner, les accessoires sont parfaits la mise en route est simple. Plus qu'a voir dans le temps.

Se trata de un buen producto. Siempre había tenido dudas acerca de este tipo de dispositivos de riego y eso me había impedido comprarlos. En este caso opté por probar, teniendo en cuenta que estaba de oferta por los Prime Days. Como digo, el dispositivo es correcto, y las instrucciones bastante claras. Lo que sí recomiendo es no utilizarlo con pilas, sino optar por enchufarlo a la red con el cable que trae y con cualuier cargador de móvil. Lo digo porque con las pilas fuciona muy pocas veces. Luego, a pesar de que sigue marcando que tiene un nivel correcto de baterías, en realidad no funciona cuando entra en carga la bomba. Es posible que por ese motivo en algunas reseñas había leído que a los pocos días dejó de funcionar. Creo que el problema no es que se hubieran estropeado sino que no tenía suficiente carga en las pilas para hacer su función. Por tanto, si lo usáis enchufado a la red funciona de maravilla, según la programación que hayáis puesto. Yo lo que he hecho es utilizar garrafas de agua mineral que además he conectado por tubos, de tal forma que a medida que la bomba va tomando agua de la primera garrafa, se van autonivelando, y así puedes poner todas las garrafas aque quieras en función del tiempo que vayas a dejar las plantas solas. Lo he tenido más de una semana en observación, antes de dejarlo solo, y funciona perfectamente, y se permite regular el flujo de agua con mucha precisión. Espero que a mi vuelta de vacaciones todo haya seguido como hasta ahora. Totalmente recomendable.

Utilisé pour arroser une petite dizaine de pots et jardinières. Alimentation par pile ou USB (câble fourni). Si il y a une panne de courant, les piles prennent le relais. Installation assez aisée. Ne pas hésiter à chauffer le tuyau pour enfoncer les raccords. Bien étanche après. Programmation simplissime : on choisit la fréquence et la durée de l'arrosage, et le cycle est lancé, et se répète tout seul (on peut décider de décaler le moment du lancement). Pour l'instant, après 10 jours d'utilisation, pas de problème (3 mn par jour). Le débit est donné pour 1/2 litre par minute. Je n'ai pas mesuré, mais il me semble que c'est davantage. Les seuls griefs : qualité du boîtier, en plastique très léger, et pas étanche... un peu embêtant pour un usage extérieur. Je l'ai emballé dans un sac plastique pour le protéger, donc ça fera l'affaire. J'ai acheté un bidon de 60l, et un bout de tuyau supplémentaire sur Amazon pour compléter l'installation. On verra à l'usage si ça marche !
