Can anybody tell me if a fresh set of batteries will operate the pump long enuff to inflate the mattress more than once?

I have the twin version of this, and I've gotten at least a half dozen fills on one set of standard Rayovac batteries. Since the power switch is easy to accidentally trip, I'd suggest either removing the batteries completely from the pump when not in use or (what I did) keep something (I use a notecard on which I traced the pump's outline and cut out) on top of the batteries when in storage.

When I used mine this summer I filled it, another person in camp borrowed it and filled their mattress (his was a different brand), and I also deflated my mattress with it at the end of the weekend. The pump didn't seem to be lacking any power afterwards.

This mattress set does not come with a pump. I have been very happy so far with the Coleman pump (although it runs on 110v, not always practical when camping). I did notice that Coleman had a couple of pumps - one was 110v, one was battery. The pump was great when removing air as well - much more efficient than without it.

I am not sure if it's the batteries but I am having trouble with full inflation of the bed.

If you buy this you better buy a new set of batteries too, the batteries that came with mine didn't last for three minutes. I haven't bought new batteries so don't know how long fresh ones would last.

good night I wonder if the bomb that I have to fill this inflatable mattresses works and if it fills up and you have to leave or the pump on lasting use

Most likely it won't. These air pumps need high amerage /current which these basic dc adapter are not build for, this would give less than one amp current( please check amperage on both devices)voltage would match but current would not give enough power to blow air to fill up mattress. I tried emergency tire inflator with negative results. Check what others experienced. Mine may be an odd case

Do not store lead acid batteries. They will discharge over time, and discharging reduces their capacity. I learned the hard way. I bought a new APC UPS and didn't use it for a year. The battery was completely dead right out of the box. Made the same mistake with a portable air inflator. I let it discharge too much between charges and now it can barely hold a charge. Shame on me. Keeping them fully charged, I get many years out of them. I have one that's 11 years old and still working (I don't know how much capacity is has left, but it works).

requires a unique pump. I used a air mattress pump from Coleman. It's runs on a charged battery and filled 6 tubes in minutes, no problem. Don't remember price but I think it was around $30. That has worked the best.

The pump that comes with one does not use batteries. However, I had a toddler Aerobed blowup mattress - it's pump is battery or electric & it fits this mattress also

I have not, but I can tell you that the 4 D batteries required for the Air Pump last long enough to fully fill two single river float inter-tubes. I would not recommend it for a Queen-sized bed. This is fine for small items, or medium sized items if you have 8 or 12 D batteries.

Yes, absolutely. Just be mindful that it must be connected directly to a battery so you will be standing next to a vehicle with your mattress until it inflates. The good news is, it will be inflated really fast. Much faster than the ones with 4 D cell batteries.

Yes it does but if it is a mattress you are trying to blow up, I would get the Coleman Quickpump. It is rechargeable, inflates & deflates. I've got 3 & have pumped up all brands of mattresses with it. And best yet, there is no manual pumping action required by you.

Yes, I have two batteries on my UPS system which needs refill about monthly. Both batteries are filled in one step. A worthwhile addition to the system.

Hi! To answer your question: Unfortunately there isn't an option to inflate the matteress with a battery pump. This would have made this matteress even more of an excellent purchase. It doesn't take long at all to manually inflate the mattress. Less than 5 minutes. I hope this helps.

Only if you have access to an adequate source of electricity. The second (quiet) pump requires electricity full time in order to keep the mattress inflated.

I purchased a Coleman 120v Electric Quickpump, it was $20 at Menards. You can also find them in sporting goods stores and maybe Walmart. They are great for inflating airbeds, water floating toys, and work good for these pools. I have purchased a battery operated one but don't recommend as the air flow is not as strong, plug in ones are best.

Does it matter? 1 or 3 minutes, still better than a manual pump. If your schedule is that tight and 2 minutes makes a difference, then maybe a fold out memory foam mattress is for you.
