Convert from 240v to 12v equipment

[Mr porky]

Hopefully someone can help.
I need to transform 240v electric to 12v to power a whale water pump.
What do I need.
Thanks

If its for your van just connect it to the vans 12v system.

No it's for a catering temporary event which has 240v power and I would need to put in water tanks I have a similar system on one of my catering trailer, I'm trying to save myself a trip to the storage to check out what I need

240 to 12v adaptors are about £20 on Amazon

What ampage do you need ???

I have just bought a 20amp 12v supply off ebay for £12..
This is to drive my chinese diesel heater in my shed, currently i use an old leisure battery.

A whale pump should not be that much so a plug in 12v adapter of the right rating should do the job..
If it's like one of those drop in submersible types there are about 3 amps..

Chop the plug off this or put a socket on the end of the whale lead..
