  1. yes there is a 12 v sump pump on the market, think sears has them, then put a  110v trickel charger on it, or if theres no power, use a solar charger, [harborfreight.com]


  2. I really have no clue, but the Q is curious. I have never heard of a DC sump pump, most especially never heard of a car battery used in that manner. Beyond that, to keep the battery charged you'd have to use AC anyway, and a charger.

      Beyond, beyond that, I cannot imagine a 12 volt system being very effective as a sump pump. Certainly you might find a converter to operate DC appliances from the 12 volt, but the entire notion seems a bit much to me.

      I do wish you success however.
