The Icecap V3 works with the Nero 3. I just bought it a few days ago and everything plugs in just fine and powers the pump, I’m not sure for how long I have not lost power yet ::knock on wood:: . I did unplug the main power and still worked.Does the ecotech power back up unit work with the Nero 3?
I’m getting some conflicting information about the Icecap V3 working with the AI Nero 3 pumps. Can you confirm? Also, how many pumps per battery backup? One or two?The Icecap V3 works with the Nero 3.

I just noticed that too! So weird. I wish I could get confirmation on this.Even the information directly from the CoralVue (IceCap) website is contradictory. The product page for the V3 battery backup has an image showing the battery is “compatible with 24V DC pumps” but then the description below says “New model updated for 2021! This new version is 12V like the original!”
I have large UPS’s (for a computer). The kind with a digital screen that tells what the draw is and an estimated run time. It will run my Apex, COR pump, and fans, etc for 80-90 minutes. I have a larger battery that I can wheel over and plug in to keep it running 12-24 hours. I live in TX where I don’t have to worry about the heater.Have you looked at computer UPS units? I use a couple of small form factor Riello's to power my return pump, power heads, and lights, to cover for short power outages.
The ice cap says it does NOT work with AI Nero pumps unfortunatelyI thought I read somewhere that the Icecap Battery works with the Nero.
I actually used that talentcell with an mp10 on the 12v output. Worked great. Unfortunately the 24v output is poorly regulated and doesn't output a steady 24v but has a rather large voltage range. Im not sure it that is good for the nero or not?I lost power last night, and plugged 1 of my Nero3 into my GoalZero Sherpa 100AC, and it ran that 1 Nero3 for over 10 hours while my Nero was plugged into the GoalZero's AC outlet.

Or what about a power bank with a 24v output, the one a the link below has a 24v output with a DC5521 plug, same as the Nero without the AC adapter.
