You need to invert from 240v to 12v?

Battery charger maybe. Don't trust me though. Safer to run off a battery.

Buy a proper pump innit.

Why not do a search on here under booster pumps? There is lots of detailed info on the subject.

Don't try and use a wfp pump for a booster (I did   ::)roll )
They are not made for continuous use and it will overheat!
