Or two 12v batteries wired together. Or a 24 volt lorry battery.
It's a game of three halves!

Depends upon what your system pressure is. 50 psi is on the low side nowadays, and you may find you are working very near to the pressure switch setting. Listen to see if the switch starts to cycle (turn on and off quickly).

You definatly wont be able to throttle the outlet to reduce the water, as this will almost certainly take your system pressure over 50psi and the pump will shut off.
