What batteries do you all use for the Bravo 12v pumps and would one of these do the job? Image

Hi

Your picture appears to be showing part of a box containing a Halfords battery charger, not a battery?

The battery several of us use for the Bravo BP12, which fits into the pump's carry-bag, is:

The charger some of us use is:

Hope this helps.
:cheers

Hi

Try this tiny URL:

https://tinyurl.com/ya6ggugp

Otherwise, the charger is a
CTEK XS 0.8 12V Battery Smart Charger & Conditioner
so seek it out on G**gle (other search engines are available!)

:cheers

I use a lithium polymer battery, very small and light easily fits in the pump bag and gives me 3 full inflates on the T32Ie, also only takes an hour to charge :thumbsup
