Free . . . but a pretty lame system (a 15L Canadian Tire Beverage Buddy, with 1/4" tubing, and a ball valve to adjust to flow).

I need to come up with something else. I can't get the drip quite slow enough.

Well since there is no room in my stand for a gravity fed system that is out. Could use the dosing pump I guess, but water use can change so much, & I would need battery back up on that so I don't lose the time setting.

I'm tossing around some ideas.. but I think it will come down to the pump that will work. I can only fit a 3gal water can in the stand. I just use a 5gal outside when I am gone for more than a couple of days.

No issues after two years, touch wood.

Been lucky.. use 2 of them.. been the issue I think, they shut off before the water is topped up.
