Water
Strider offers a great selection of

products and

|
 |
DINK'S TIPS:
I use the LVM Hi-Speed Pump with a
12 volt Gel Cell battery which I
keep in a plastic carrying case. I
carry the battery, pump and case in
my car trunk so it is handy to
use. The Gel Cell battery will pump
up about 20 of my Water Strider
Rafts on a single charge. If
you clip an LVM Pump directly to a
car battery do not use the pump with
the car motor running as it produces
excessive voltage. When you're
inflating or deflating your raft and
you hear the pitch of the pump motor
change it is then time to stop
pumping. You will have to top
off the raft with a foot pump to
make it hard enough to float
efficiently. The LVM Pump is the
fastest inflating, lightest weight
portable electric air pump
available.

DINK'S TIPS:
I like to carry an extra 12 volt
battery in a plastic carrying
case so I can carry the battery
and the Bravo 12 volt air pump
out along the rafts so I can
easily pump them up to capacity
while getting my fishing tackle
ready to go. I use a gel-cell 12
volt battery for this job. Mine
is a Power Sonic model PS-12330
U1 12 volt 33 amp battery made
by
Power Sonic Corp.
The battery will pump up at
least 12 Water Striders before
it needs recharging. I use an
Battery Tender Junior 12 volt
0.75 amp battery charger that is light
and does a good job charging the
Power Sonic. If you decide to
set yourself up this way I
recommend getting a battery case
that has a lid and carrying
strap. I also use the Gel Cell
battery to power my electric
trolling motor. The Gel Cell is
completely sealed so the battery
can tip over and roll around and
not make a mess. The Gel Cell
Battery is also about half the
weight of a regular battery. You
can find this battery in a place
that services electric golf
carts and wheel chairs. Having
this setup makes it really nice
for everyone who's floating with
you. Have fun! - Dave

accurate pressure readings this is a
great tool for everyone on the water

K-Pump model K200
The
model K200 is a new model in 2005.
It weighs in at 2 lbs. 8 oz. and
measure 3” by 32”. It has almost
double the volume of the Model 100
and is designed to be the best pump
for “topping off” you have ever
seen. There simply are no equals...
This is a “must” pump for all rafts,
cata-rafts and pontoon crafts
because you can stand upright when
using it. The stroking action is
effortless, yet highly efficient.
There is simply no comparable pump
that will produce as much air volume
with less effort. Commercial river
guides acclaim this pump to be about
as valuable as their floatation
jackets. If you have a back problem,
this is “your” pump!

K-Pump model K40
This is
the pump for you if you have an “IK” or
a “kickboat”. The goal in the
development of the K-40 was to make a
more compact version of the K-400 so
that it could be stowed when space is
limited.
Only 24” in length and
weighing only 3 ½ lbs the K-40 still
produces 70% of the volume per stroke of
his bigger brother the K-400. The K-40
is also fitted with a unique
handle/sling strap which makes it easy
to pump and easier to transport.
Like all K-Pump models, it comes with a
stowage bag, assorted adaptors and a
sample tube of superlube. synthetic
lubricant.
The K-40 like the
K-400 will work on most all valves
including the older “military valves”.

DINK'S TIPS: The K-40
and K-400 pumps are newly
designed. The new design has
solved the problems of hoses
and adaptors for every valve
and having to have 2 pumps
to do the job.
The
K-40 is a compact dual
action pump that really
works. It has fast large air
volume and will also top off
a raft very quickly. Being
light, 3 1/2 lbs. and only
24 inches long I can take it
along and never know it is
there. The inflatable Kayak
users will also love this
pump because you can pump it
up while sitting in the
water and not have to reach
shore and get out to do the
job. Use the K-400 for large
rafts when weight and length
is not a problem.

K-Pump model K400
The
K-400 "The Outfitter's Pump".
Finally! The innovative breakthrough
you’ve been waiting for!
A
"hybrid"! Two pumps in one - The
K-400!
Now two pumps and two
people (or one person with three
hands) can be replaced by one person
with a K-400. No more waiting for a
friend to hold that “hose” and no
more extra cost for a secondary
“top-off” pump.
The K-400 is
the only true two-stage pump
available. Extensive field-testing
(what river guides affectionately
call “trying to destroy”)
contributed to the innovative
design, durable construction and
exceptional performance of the
K-400. It will prove to be the best
all-purpose pump you can own.
The K-400 is a true two-stage pump.
The primary stage delivers a huge
volume (approx. 1.3 gals) of air per
stroke. When the pressure in the
raft increases and pumping starts to
become difficult, a simple twist of
the handle locks out the high-volume
primary stage and locks in the
high-pressure “top-off” stage. You
won’t miss a stroke!
Just 5
lbs. and 31 inches in length, the
K-400 is sleek and light-weight
compared to it’s competitors and is
constructed of extremely durable UV
enhanced ABS plastic to withstand
years of use. As with all K-Pump
models, the “hose” has been
eliminated!
A 600 denier
“stow-bag” is included for stowage
and protection. Also, like all
K-Pump models - the K-400 floats!!!

TIP:
Always give about 3-5 short strokes
in the valve to blow off any
excess
water before inflating.
|
|
|
 |
DINK'S TIPS:
I often use my Bravo 1 Air Pump
as a bellows to pump air through
the fire box air vent at the
bottom of my
Kelly Kettle.
This trick gets a roaring hot
fire going in a hurry. Just put
the hose adapter near the hole
(not to close though cause you
don't want to melt the adapter).
Hold it in place with a rock and
gently pump air through
the air hole and presto - you
will have boiling water very
fast. This is a great method on
rainy days or with wet fuel that
won't easily burn.
