POPOSOAP showcases solar fountain at Austin Pond Society night

POPOSOAP took part in the Austin Pond Society’s Sponsor Night on July 20 in Austin, Texas, where more than 30 pond and water-garden enthusiasts tested an 8W solar fountain pump and traded maintenance tips. The event highlighted growing interest in wire-free, solar-powered equipment for backyard ponds and water features.

Why it matters: - Pond keepers are looking for equipment that is easier to install, safer to use outdoors and simpler to maintain over time. - Community events like APS Sponsor Night give hobbyists a chance to compare products, share practical advice and see how solar-powered gear performs in real settings.
