FARM TANK System EXPLAINED! 💧 How We Store and Pump Water with Solar Power!

What happens here

The presenter demonstrates the Mirafount 3390 water tanks used for the cattle. He explains that these tanks, though suitable for beef cattle, only hold about 40 gallons of water. Due to the solar well's intermittent operation, especially on cloudy days, these tanks can quickly run low, forcing cattle to 'mob drink' and potentially leaving some without sufficient water. He highlights that tanks at higher elevations empty first.

Goal: Identify limitations of the existing water tanks with solar power.
