Hello.
I am working on a photography project and looking for some advice.
I have a shower head like device that is hooked up out doors with my garden hose plugged into it which will be running for a couple hours at a time while I shoot photos.
This works fine but I would prefer not to waste water so my plan is to use a kiddie pool with a pump to recycle the water, when I am at home.
This same setup will also be used in the great outdoors (with a battery power pack) using a stream, lake, or ocean as the water source so for this reason I would like the pump to have a hose inlet and outlet as opposed to a submersible style pump.
I would appreciate any suggestions on a pump that can deliver roughly the same flow of water as a typical garden hose, is small/portable, that works well even though it may be a fair distance from the water source, and can operate for hours at a time with no problems.
I've experimented a bit with a harbor freight pump (http://www.harborfreight.com/12-volt-marine-utility-water-pump-94639.html) but it's rate a flow was a weaker than I would like (not as good as the garden hose) and some reviews state that it is not intended for extended use.
If I'm missing anything or if more information or a better description would help let me know.
Thank you for any help
Charlie
