I want to hook it to a 12 volt battery , to run a pump ,is this ok to hook directly to the pump and will the remote work at 100 ft

Sry to max the range look for a plastic screw on the receiver electronics board, use a plastic or wooden "screwdriver" to turn it. Just sand something to a bevel. Have someone walk away hitting the remote button till it won't work then use the screw to fine tune it. Unless the receiver is digital but not likely at this price point.

It depends on the draw of the pump. If the pump does not draw more than the 6 or 15 amps (depending on the model you purchase) then you should be good.

I think it will be fine. I'm using it on a pump myself but I don't know how far it will transmit.

100 ft is a stretch but if the antenna is towards I think, think being the key word. I use mine to turn an electric game call that's wired to a 12 volt tractor battery on & off from a distance. I've run it at around 100ft but sometimes I've got to click it numerous times & move the remote around in the air. With my application I can tell instantly it if work (i.e. Sound). My advice if you're going try it would be to also wire in a small light or LED to tell you if your pump is on or off.

I don't know about the pump . But I tried hooking a radio to the remote and it only worked at 25 feet. Don't work at 100 feet.

Get a relay in fact get two. You can make a circuit that will stay on that way till you hit it again. You make the remote supply power to the first relay then you supply power directly to the normally open on the second relay. have the second relay jumper to the power hookup on the first relay from the normally open. When you hit the button the 2 relays will stay on till the circuit is broken. If this is confusing look at a site call "the 12v." find the relay diagrams and use the one to keep your car radio on till the door open

Check the amp rating in the pump. These relays are rated at 15amps so if your pump is pulling less then 15amps you will be ok. If not, you will have to wire in a higher capacity relay so that the remote relay activated the higher relay which will activate the pump. And 100' is no problem for the remote relay I hope this helps

Mine is hooked up directly without a controller to a water pump. It will depend on what you are using it with--the voltage varies depending on the sun.

Yes, it could be hooked up directly to a 12 v battery, but I'm not sure how you would run your hose on a kayak.Don't think this would be a good application.

Yes. You will need a 12 volt charge control box also. You shouldn't wire directly to the battery/batteries

What a nice girlfriend! Yes, this will need to be hooked up to a 12 volt battery. I am assuming he has a boat to put it in. If that boat has electric start or an electric trolling motor it can be hooked up to either one of the batteries used to start the motor or power the trolling motor.

could not say for sure. I am sure the 100 feet is not a problem. If it is in a pvc pipe or garden hose. the pump is good for 50psi which should be adaquate, Not sure about the volume being reduced though

It's pretty straight forward just keep in mind that you should use at least 10 gauge wires to connect unit to 12v battery,if you use wire less than that you could have a problem as with any of these units.

Just follow the instructions, the unit will know that you have a 12 volt system and will work with any panels that you connect without any user input . You only need to set the battery type and size. Setting the size will only be necessary if you want the state of charge on the remote display to be accurate. The battery type is needed to get the correct charge profile. Connecting loads directly to the battery is the simplest but the remote meter will not be able to display load volts , amps and amp/hours of use.

Assuming you make the proper connections, the switch should do fine on a 12 V battery pump. My battery pump has the same float switch and is rated for 10 Amps at 125V.

It would be possible to wire it to work for that but it will require a 24V power supply and a relay with a 24V coil and contacts rated for 120V A/C. Since you will be dealing with high voltage, it should be enclosed in an insulated or grounded enclosure. I'm not sure what you want to accomplish. I imagine that you have a 120VAC pump that filters the water and you are concerned about it discharging into the floor. In the event that happened, you would want it to shut off the pump. Is that correct?

I have had this connected to 2 100 watt panels and four golf cart batteries wired to 24 volts. I have also had it connected to 12 volts on my larger solar system and it works fine although pumps at a slower rate.

That would depend on the amperage of your sump pump and the length of your extension cord... By doing a little research online, I would say that if your sump is 6 amps or below and you limit the length of your extension to 50 ft or 75 ft at the longest you should do okay. This is just my opinion as I have not run a motor with an extension on my own unit. I have had my unit for a year and love it. We use it to charge phones, computers, lights, Ipods, etc... when camping. We keep it busy and use it a lot. We have done away with D batteries for flashlights and fans. :D

The answer from Thomas D. is right on and the only comment I would add, is make sure you have you on off switch in between you 12 volt supple hook up.

That is correct, 12v is required. You will also need space for the battery fairly close to the motor mount. Original leads from the motor are about 4'

I only use it to control my small pond/waterfall pump and it works very well in that capacity. I suppose anything 120v AC that can be plugged in to it should work.

Thank you for your inquiry. This winch is meant to connect to a 12 Volt Battery. I hope this helps answer your question. Renee - ProMark Offroad

Just remember that it works by sending voltage to a zone. As long as your pump has a way to respond correctly to the voltage being sent to it, it should be ok. You would need to verify that it's the same (probably DC) voltage.
