Well It's nothing you've ever seen on a pond before! Something I've been working on for some time... Partly because I'm mad and partly because everyone likes water displays right? 😀

It plays various different tunes, still some tweaks required before I actually do put It on the water. It runs on 24v although the motors are on 12v. It has 16 water jets with blue and green lights built In on each one that are all Individually programmable. 8 red outer LED's and another 16 colour changing LED's on the under side of the lid. Also 3 strips of electroluminescent wires not shown operating In this video, two colours around the very edge of the lid and another underneath. 8 flash bulbs which are actually LED halogen equivalents. These are programmable In sets of 2 and two marine speakers for the sound.

Inside we have the programming unit shown on the left, the pump, two accumulator tanks and a pressure regulator. Also the speed controllers for the motors and a custom built control board and small control box. The radio control receiver also operates a servo hooked up to a volume control pot and the controller so I can operate everything from the side. There are 3 batteries In total but surprisingly It doesn't draw much power.

So why am I posting It here? Because It's my website!... and I'd like to peoples response to It really. It's a unique project that's kept me busy for the purpose of pure entertainment and an electronics challenge 😎

Post your comments below! Does this project take radio control boats a step too far Into the realms of technology advancements? 😛
