Hi, it really depends on what battery you have how many volt and what ampere it is and what your bilge pump you use....

Hi there
For the small highbanker I am using a Rule500GPH bilge pump hooked up to a Exide powergard 12v7Ah motor bike battery. I can run this set up for about six hours non stop.
cheers
Russell
