Are you talking about the battery for tank ?

You don't want to use a 12 vlt battery , yes it will work but your pump will be turning more rpm's than necessary . Too much gallons per minute . I found a 6 vlt 12 amp slightly taller than the standard 10 amp battery hobie supplies . Battery cover still fits , but not flush with tank . I can live with this dilemma , in exchange for a battery that will last the whole day . I have yet to run it down on a days adventure , 10 to 12 hrs being my longest day this summer . Andy probably has the updated pickup hose for those inquiring , I grabbed mine from fastlane . This upgrade is a huge advantage . Not so restrictive as to clog , but will prevent problems for most of your outings .
