I am setting up a small 400w system on a remote cabin. It will be running through a 40a PWM charge controller, to a battery bank of two 12v 200ah batteries then to a Xantrex 1800w inverter. I will only be powering lights on this system with exception of a small water pump for a toilet and a sink (Shurflo 3 or 3.5gpm). My lights will be running AC off the inverter. My question is in reference to the water pump itself. Is there an advantage or disadvantage of running a DC water pump directly off the batteries/charge controller or running an AC pump off the inverter? I can purchase the pump in 115v ac or 12v dc. The run from the battery bank to the pump would be less than 20-22 feet.
Thank You,
