Subject:Re: Sink faucet needed.... (between Denver and Minneapolis...)

Inlet nipple where the hose connects to the pump broke off...  and I tried
to glue it back together, but...  didn't work....

So now I've attached the pump hose to the city water inlet (which I never
used anyway) and added a separate switch for the pump.  Heated the hose so
it fit easily on the larger threaded nipple.

Actually I already had an extra switch right next to the battery/water level
indicator.  It was for an inverter that I had wired in to the built-in
outlets, but the inverter had quit and I don't have much 120 stuff and was
using a lighter plug inverter now anyway, so....convenient enough!   Problem
(well enough) solved...

If I happen to run across a solution that seems more appealing I'll put it
in, but realistically it's good enough and I have enough other things to
work on.
