Is there a battery to store heat for later?
-
Yes, a battery made of a pool full of water. It does have some efficiency problems.

So you hook the hose up to one end, water flows through the tiny radiator pipes & gets heated up, and then ends up in the pool ... hmm. Is the water pressure high enough to push it up the "out" hose, or will there be a gravity assist involved?

(This is a fantastic idea and looks like a very fun project, btw)
-
There’s a tiny circulator pump you can’t see that’s between the outlet on the pool and the hose.

Ah, nice. Looks like a good week for this project :) Sunshine to the max.
