"Wireless" tube pump - need recommendations

Can anyone recommend a wire-free electric tube air pump? Been looking around and all the ones I can find need to be connected to the mains or 12v. Ideally I want something with a built in battery, but with decent performance. One company I do some work for bought a Bravo 2000 recently - pumps a tube up in seconds, but runs off the mains (and is £200!)

The Bravo pump with built in battery is a great piece of kit.

I've converted mine to run off either it's internal battery, the RIB batteries, or the car battery.
Obviously it can also be charged off the mains as well.
