Hello everyone, I want to make my pond air pump turn on automatically when power is out.
I'm going to use my 12v 20ah deep cycle battery, battery charger and 150w inverter. My pond airpump is 10w 240v.
I can run the air pump with the battery and inverter without any problem as long as i'm there to turn it on.
1. Can I use something to make it automatic ? Like turn the pump on from battery when power goes out like an emergency light.
2. Emergency lights turn of when ther's mains power and turn on when power cuts. So do I have to use a second pump as my everyday pump or can I use only one pump ?
please help. circuit diagram and things I need.
thanks.
