The plan is to add a 12 volt RV ondemand water pump that will give me pressure something along the lines of 4.9gpm @ 45psi

you need to paint your white pipes or use UV PVC ( gray or black), the sun will deteriorate the white.

DON'T LET THA DOG DRINK IT. HE'LL BE BLOWING SOAP BUBBLES WHEN HE BARKS! HA HA. NICE VID.

I like that you showed clearly what "anyman" can do given the ability to think outside the box. How many people trash those lights when the bulb goes?

Wonder how many it would take to equal one large solar panel?

Would it be a statement to cover my roof with solar light caps? ;-)

looks good, like the black barrels to

You should continue your deck over the top of the rain barrels so that you dont have to look at them and will use that space! Awesome set up!

Can you delete this from YouTube? Others might be influenced to use your methodology and do things this way ...

Why are the barrels connected at the top? You don't need that to fill them up. The water will level out equally through the bottom pipes alone.

Nice system.
