Description
Aquatop AC/DC PRO-1 Battery Backup Air Pump
The Aquatop AC/DC PRO-1 is a sophisticated, single-outlet aeration system designed to provide uninterrupted life support for your aquarium. Combining the reliability of a standard plug-in air pump with the security of a USB rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, the PRO-1 automatically detects power failures and switches to battery mode instantly.
This unit is perfect for hobbyists seeking a sleek, modern solution for emergency oxygenation, as well as a portable aerator for transporting fish or keeping bait alive in the field.
Key Features
- Smart Power-Fail Detection: When plugged into a standard AC outlet, the unit remains in standby or active mode. If power is lost, it seamlessly transitions to battery power to prevent oxygen depletion.
-
Extended Battery Runtime: Offers two distinct modes to maximize protection:
- Standard Mode: Provides up to 16 hours of continuous, high-flow aeration.
- Power Save Mode: Uses a pulsing interval to extend battery life up to 45 hours during long-term outages.
- USB Rechargeable: Features a modern Lithium-Ion battery that recharges via USB, eliminating the need for expensive and environmentally harmful disposable batteries.
- Whisper-Quiet Design: Built with a high-efficiency motor and noise-dampening components to ensure your living space remains peaceful even while the pump is running.
- Compact & Portable: Its lightweight, streamlined profile makes it an ideal travel companion for fish transport or outdoor fishing trips.

Why Choose the PRO-1 Over Standard Backup Pumps?
The PRO-1 represents the next generation of aquarium safety. While older backup pumps rely on bulky "D" batteries that can leak or fail, the ACDC-PRO1 uses reliable Lithium-Ion technology. The addition of a Power Save mode is a critical differentiator, effectively tripling the runtime to cover nearly two full days of a power emergency—a vital feature during major storms or electrical grid failures.
Maintenance Tip: To keep the internal battery in peak condition, it is recommended to fully discharge and recharge the unit once every few months if it hasn't been used in an emergency.
