Reading a lot of posts that mention the problem of filling up backpacks or trolleys. If you have a tank in your car or van try using a marine bilge pump for about £25. Wire it through a switch and connect some 1" tube and your backpack is full in 15 seconds,hope this helps,Alan. :)

hi dave, just seen your question sorry for the delay, go to ebay and search for bilge pumps,then look for 2300gph pump one supplier called '12volt marine'. Great pump!

I bought a 12volt submersible from omnipole wire is a bit short though but easy enough to change to a longer wire.

Excellent pump and would not be without it now.
Im sure its the same pump gary is on about.
Not sure what the flow rate is as i have had it a while but its pretty quick at filling my trolley
