What are you trying to do? Those pumps at West Marine are all going to be DC and not AC so they definitely won’t work directly connected to the OpenSprinkler. Even if they were AC instead of DC, they are too high of a power draw. They would need their own power source that you’d control with a relay.
Explain what you are trying to do and I’ll try to give you some ideas.
