Aquarium Co-Op Battery Backup Air Pump, Dual Outlet

Publishes 1.6 L/min total air flow and the same approximate runtime claims as the single-outlet model.

USB-powered dual-outlet air pump with automatic battery switchover and five output levels.

Consider: The stated airflow is a total, not a promise for each outlet. Test both connected devices together and balance their air delivery before relying on the backup. The maker’s runtime figures cover units sold since 2024-08-01.
