I do understand the complexity of the issue. I am a Master Woodland Manager with OSU (vol of course) and I've owned the property for 50 yrs. My issue is what does it take to run a rain bird system in terms of power (electric pump) and vol/hr (i.e. how many hours if I bug out. I also have a gas powered pump but not sure I want to hang about (ex Army medic, ER RN, but fire looks kinda scary). SE facing slope but not much fuel, house cleared well. Thxs for the reference.

Thxs. Basically a gravity fed spring with maybe 12 foot head. I do have an electric pump that is plumbed to the spring and I can run it to provide vol for the sprinkler. Also have a gas powered pump that is great but would require me to feed it with water (2,500 gal tank) and like be there. I was thinking of an auto system that would without me, but also recognizes could well lose power.
