It consumes half the power of other 1/2 HP pumps, only 5.8 amps, for an extended run time during power outages. The Ion 55ACI+ System runs at full performance until the batteries are dead unlike DC systems that fade in performance as the batteries are depleted. The system runs with two AGM Power Plus Batteries.
