hey Eric, I never put a amp gauge on it so i couldn't tell you how many amps it draws. However -I've started and run this pump from a little 7 amp 12 volt batteries that are use in alarm panel and such. they sell the 7 amp at like radio shack and home depot. i get them from work as well as 24 amp size too. the 7 amps I usually use when i only have to pump 5 gallons or so-works fine for that -then i top off charge the 7 amp... the 24 amp battery's use for other chores. when I have large pumping chores i hook up to a regular deep cycle battery. so your 30 amp should have no problem running the pump -but how long is another question. also if you do use your 30 amp and its NOT a deep cycle battery i'm sure you will kill it if you run it for extended period - (say a regular garden tractor battery is just for starting purposes and not extended running.) i tried to give you as much information as possible as i could i don't have the pump locally with me to read the spec label or put a amp gauge.

This is a 12V battery, but for running even a small winch that still pulls ~40 amps I'd go for a bigger battery. This one is rated for 18 amp-hour (hinting it'll supply 18 amps for 1 hour, or 9 amps for 2 hours, etc) and I don't think it's a good idea to pull more than that 18 amp rating for more than a few seconds (like to crank a car).

Hi There I run the inverter off of a 27D size 12 volt battery on my boat that is charged from a 120 amp alternator off of the motor.

best to run panel power through a voltage regulator then to a 12 volt battery , then from the battery to the pump.thats how I run mine with no problems.

I use it for a water pump in my park model because my park model does not have 12 volt, the pump works on demand. My suggestion would be to consider the amps needed also before purchasing anything. Hope this helped

Paul, I use an autocraft model #24dc-1 I got at Auto Zone. Iused an online discount and got it for about $50. I don't use a fish finder but I can't imagine one to be much of a current draw. I got the middle size battery and have had no problems at all. If you forsee a need for more power just get the next size up from this model.

No you can not, the pump that comes with he kit has alligator clips for a 12 volt battery. It is great because we take the bowl and set it up on the bank of the stream and having the battery hook up works well for this purpose.

The label on the pump says 16 amps. I ran a (probably 12 gauge) wire from our house batteries, under the motorhome, to a heavy duty 12 volt outlet in a compartment near the dump valves. I used a 20 amp inline fuse. The fuse has never blown. My guess is the pump would draw a little less than 15 amps.I apologize for being a "nitpicker". More than 15 amps wouldn't be a "short circuit". A circuit breaker should trip.

I use a 12 volt transfer pump installed in one of the 2" tank fittings. I use a battery pack to power the pump when I need it.

Assuming you make the proper connections, the switch should do fine on a 12 V battery pump. My battery pump has the same float switch and is rated for 10 Amps at 125V.

If you want to use the pump you have to carry some kind of 12 volt battery I use a lawn mower battery they are cheaper and smaller

I don't know because I used 3 12v deep cycle batteries with a 55W solar panel charging them. The pump runs off the batteries.

James, the pump can be found online. It is made be hyperlite and their part number is 56890000. It has the 12 volt attachment and battery clamps.

Is all about how many Amps you can draw; dividing 500 W, the power, to 220V the voltage, will give you the Amps. Look on the well pump for the amperage, but I think that will not do, 2 3/4 HP is a big pump and probably will draw around 12A.

You can set the pump to either 115 or 230 You can make the change by removing the back housingMine ran on 230 which I think was persetIf it trips the breaker at 115 you either have a fault or the breaker is to lowIt should be a 25 ampThe motor does draw a good amount of power

I installed an RVi towed battery charger from the get go so don't know how much battery draw down there is with the brake.

From what I have read about this subject is that you should use a deep cycle acid battery as suggested for the watchdog BW 4000. Other batteries are probably not compatible with the "electronics" of the pump
