1GPM @ 35PSI at 24 volts, 2 amps. 1/2GPM at 12 volts, 0.4 amps. Enough for drip irrigation, soaker hose, water to a kitchen sink or to the bathroom or an outwside cleanup station for washing hands.
At 24 volts, 35PSI gives you 80 feet of head so moving water up maybe 6 floors or perhaps filling a tank that's mounted high enough for gravity to provide adequate pressure for normal plumbing fixtures - at least 10PSI, which would be about 23 feet above the highest outlet (shower head 7 feet above the floor means tank hould be 30 feet above that floor). That says a tank at least 30 feet above the highest outlet would provide adequate pressure.
Even at 1/2GPM with the pump running on 12 volts, that's 30 gallons/hour so a 100 gallon tank (830lbs of water plus the weight of the tank, so build a very sturdy supporting framework) could be filled in a little over 3 hours. At 12 volts, this pump is very quiet and it can be run dry without damage.

$8.95 + tax/shipping - until midnight 29 June.
I used one of these when I was cleaning and sanitizing some 55 gallon barrels - 5 feet of 3/8" tubing on the input port and that tubing run to the bottom of the barrel to empty it easily. That barrel weighs 8.3lb/gallon * 55 gallons = 456lbs plus the weight of the barrel, so not something one person is likely to be tipping over slowly to drain it. With the barrel in the sun, the pump can be run from a 30 watt or larger solar panel so the power for pumping water is "free" ;-)
