Hey guys I'm moving soon and need a Battery powered air Pump and Heater. Are these available and if so where can I get them from?

Thanks

I take it you want to use those whilst moving all the equipment?

One option would be to use a n uninterruptible power supply. These are usually in use for Servers of PCs for when the power goes down but you could simply plug other equipment in there as well. I haven't seen pumps and heaters for aquariums on batteries.

You can buy a pump that rins on batteries in the bait section. I have never seen a battery operated heater. You can buy a car adapter I believe. Or get that item Tim mentioned. I'm no2 sure of the costs on any of the items though.

+1 to seven on air pump they make battery air pumps for minnow buckets for when you go fishing. so any place that has minnow buckets and the sort should have one.

I think they go as low as $50. But those won't have that much battery power. So depending on the wattage of the heater it might be drained in minutes.

Thanks guys, I just found this

Hopefully the water will stay warm enough for enough time
