Thanks for the clarification on decoupling. Since mine doesn't have a
problem until it's over 30v I expect the pump is just fine, I just need
less voltage to it. I approached Zane but they do not want any of their
products used with pumps. I have an old C-40 in my possesion, hence the
question if it would work. It may be overkill, but I need something
soon, then can put together something else later.
Thanks,
Brad
