Hi Reefers,

I am trying to find an 'off the shelf' solution that would provide me with battery backup for my Reef Octopus VarioS 6 return pump (36v) and so far I am grasping at straws!

- I have an Ecotech one for my Vortecs. Not an option!
- I have an IceCap one for my Red Sea Gyre's. Not an option!

Any chance anyone knows something I don't? I am not a DIY man hence the 'off the shelf' request!

Thanks,
 
So, here's the thing! Both the VarioS and the Vectra return pumps are 36 v. Any way I can make it work with the booster Ecotech sell? :face-with-monocle:
