  I have said this before and will no doubt say it again.

  Go to a mobility dealer and get an old one from a mobility scooter, they will run a pump for upto a fortnight (thats about 4000ltrs pumped for me) between charges, I have 2 of them and they have been going for 3 years now, I always have a fully charged one ready in the van for when the one in use runs down.

HELLO!

RUN IT OFF VAN BATTERY

Nope, I don't want too.  I have at least one week's worth of work under a mile from where I live; two of us; two pumps going, only going maybe two-or-three-miles per day (maybe five miles tops) - and running from the van battery - I don't think so, matey.

Ive got loads of local work like that, not a problem, one job i dont move the van ALL day and the pump must be going for about 5 - 6 hours...and still just starts at end of day and off we drive.
