The RAINPOINT Automatic Plant Waterer is a battery-powered drip pump that sits next to any water reservoir (a mason jar, a vase, or the included water bag), and runs tiny drip lines to each potted plant. A dial sets the water output from a slow trickle for succulents to a steady flow for thirsty pothos, and the timer cycles between scheduled water intervals from every 12 hours to every 30 days. The whole unit runs on 4 AA batteries and is IP54 rated for outdoor patios. Best fit for vacationers l

Frequently asked questions
How many plants can it water at once?
The kit includes 10 drip lines so it handles up to 10 pots from a single reservoir. The unit can also be re-routed during the trip to focus more water on a few thirsty plants.
Will it work with a glass vase or only the included water bag?
Any container with a wide enough opening for the intake tube. Mason jars, glass vases, plastic pitchers, even a kitchen pot will all work. The intake just needs to stay submerged.
How long will one full mason jar of water last?
Depends on the dial setting and how many lines are running. A 32oz mason jar at medium output across 5 plants typically lasts about 4 to 5 days between refills.
Can it sit outside on a balcony in light rain?
Yes, the unit is IP54 rated for splashes and brief outdoor exposure. It is not designed to be submerged or sit in a downpour, so cover it during heavy rain.
