Battery backup for Neptune WAV power heads?

ScubaNemo · 11/19/2015, 03:39 PM

Are Neptune WAV powerheads compatible with Ecotech battery backups?

If not, which battery back up would work with the WAV?

Thx

Curious, has anyone connected their WAV pumps to a battery backup? If so, which battery brand?

Would this Icecap Battery not work for you? http://www.marinedepot.com/Icecap_Ba...FIPHAC-vi.html

those pumps run at 1800+ rpm at 1% power.. you would probably need a car battery to run those for any appreciable amount of time.
