I have a 5.5 amp 12v DC bilge pump that I want to invert to AC current and plug a extension cord into it, will it do the trick?

Way too many amps. Maybe try a 10/50 amp battery charger. Buy it, try it. If it blows return it to Sears or walmart.

I do not think it could be done. The only opening is the exhaust valve and it is a large opening. If the built in pump is working you could use a power inverter built into a portable power station.

Dear customer, It will work, but you will need 2 LinkPRO`s. On eof them will give you Voltage for the second bank, but not amperage. Please call our technical support at 310-864-3131. Thank you, AC DC Marine Inc.

I would go to blue sea's tech department and ask them. Since it is for a 48 volt inverter i would assume the amp draw won't be to high and it should be OKbut if there was some kind of short it could quickly overload the system and cause a fire/damage best to check with the manufacture on this one

Yes and no. You realize this is just a battery -- used to store DC power. If you want to use AC appliances you will need an inverter to convert the DC to AC. There are small 12V DC appliances designed for camping and truckers, etc. but generally they don't last long and aren't as effective as their AC counterparts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

Carol it runs better with real good 12 volt voltage. I ran off of the twelve volt motor that lifts the trailer up and down. I ran it to a standard 120 plug. It looks like it is 120 but it is only 12 volts from the pump I pot a regular cord that plugs in. I marked it so I plug it in the same way each time. I think the pump will run back wards if you reverse the power. That should give you a good start. Have fun and your welcome

I've used this cord at continuous maximum load (120v 12A) for over three days without any issues, so this will definitely serve your need. The 12-gauge is thinner wire than this 10-gauge cord, so it's worse, not better, electrically. The 12-gauge may be sufficient for your needs. 12 gauge shouldn't be used for continuous loads above 9.3A, so check your pump's electrical rating.

No. Not what it is intended for. It takes 48 volts DC to 12 volts DC @ 10 amps

I would think this is too big to use with a backup pump. This is pretty large. It is meant to be a primary pump float. I am not sure if a change in wiring would work as it is meant to work on AC not DC. Why not just get a DC float switch from watchdog?

The pump comes with an inline 20A fuse, so if your 12V adapter is fused less than that, it will likely blow, especially after it heats up. As for the alligator clips, they are designed to clip to a battery terminal and not necessarily bare wires extending from your power adapter. This pump may not be for you. I do not know if you can find an adapter for clips to 12V adapter. That seems to be an odd thing to do.

As long as your pool pump runs on 15 amps or less and 120-volts you should be fine.

Myrle - I don't see why not; The only question is how many amps the pump draws. The standard Deltek pigtail that connects to the battery and this plug has an integral standard 10 amp fuse block, but it could be easily replaced with a 15 or 20 if you needed to.

To the best of my knowledge, no. However, may I recommend goung to your locsl Radio Shack and purchashing an inverter that plugs into your cigarette lighter. It converts the DC

find out what is the amps the pump will draw and get a converter of that value or larger. I believe most any battery charger would power this pump also for a temporary set up.

This would not work for you. It plugs in to a normal 110 house outlet and then converts to 12 volt dc current.

Your float turns a switch on and off on or near the motor. If you can lock the switch in the on position (many options), and your pump runs full time, you can use this switch by plugging it into the outlet first and then plugging the sump line into the control. Directions aren't the best but mine still works. Good for up to 14 amps. I'm always cautious with low stock items. They could be returns but Amazon backs up their products.
