[QUOTE="user 7806, post: 246671, member: 7806"] It all has to do with amp hour rating for the pump then divide this into the amp hour rating of the battery this will tell you how long the battery will last or at least an educated guess. The one atv battery I looked at was only 9 ah, I guessing a pump uses more than that. I would wire the pump directly to the battery using wing nuts I would then put one of the keyed plugs in line so the battery can be removed with ease. I would also add an off/on switch for convience. Another thing you need to consider if you haven't already is find how high the pump will pump, I believe this is called head. which means that if it's rated at 48" then it will not pump over 48" very well if at all.
