How many amps does this pump take at 0.5 GPM? Does it cycle ON and OFF at such a low rate?

RV Water Pumps Fittings
90% of the time the pump will provide water to a very small sink in a horse trailer. This is to conserve water and power. I would like to buy a variable speed pump that never cycles. Instead it should quietly runs slower and slower all the way to 0 GPM. My current pump cycles ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-OFF multiple times per second. Very annoying, loud and causes all the lights to flicker. The bypass pumps take full current all the time the it's running. This will use up my battery. If I am drawing a tiny amount of water, the pump should take a tiny amount of current (AMPs).

If power and water conservation are key along with quieting down your pump, I would suggest IRVWPC2 pump controller. You can keep your current pump and install this controller, which will do all the things you are looking for. You can find it here -->
