Maybe if you use the diesel generator you'd be able to generate 1.21 Jigawatts haha

i believe a rule 360 pump uses 2.1 amps per hour at 12v, the solar panel 1.8 watts would only put out 0.15 amps per hour at 12v

so..... it would help but you would need a few panels or a bigger panel to make a big difference

Unfortunately the ad mentions it is not weatherproof.
