In Response To: Re: 'lectric pumps (Jo Lefler)

: What kind of batteries are you folks using on the 'lectric pumps?

I am using a 7 amp gel cell. They are available up to 11 amps. This means that my pump should pump continuous for about 5 hours which means at 2 minutes a pump out I should be able to clear the boat 150 times before recharge.(give or take)

These batteries are used in emergency lighting systems and in trailers to activate the brakes if the trailer should become disconnected from its tow vehicle.

A brand new one from Interstate is $43.00 Canadian. I got mine used for $5.00 because the guy was amazed at what I was using it for!
