TaskStar 260W Fuel Transfer Pump Battery Powered, 12GPM Electric Pump Kit with 21V 4.0Ah Battery & Charger.

I got to try out my new fueling system, Cheap, but worked fine. And only time will tell. I didn’t want to dump a 6 Gal. diesel can into the high inlet. I was just barely doing it on the BX, not even gonna try on the LX.
Pump the six gal in about two minutes. If it holds up a year or two, I got my money.

That's pretty slick actually and not a bad price either if it lasts awhile. I like the 6' hose on each end.

You state it pumped at 3 GPM (six gal in about two minutes) but it's rated at 12 GPM?

You find that kind of arithmetic with a lot of products today. Good that forums like this here exist to get the truth.

He mentioned pumping up, the 12gpm may be level open outlet, so no counter pressure.

Probably benchmark STP conditions.
Still beats my little battery operated HF pump @ 1.25 GPM (maybe).
