Feedback
A well-finished product with quality connectors, I recharged it after about a dozen hours of use, and the voltage was 14.5 V, so I had plenty of power left over. Thanks to the supplied plug-in cable, there's no need for any DIY. Just plug directly into the sounder display. This battery is ideal for 5" and 7" Garmin stricker models. The catalog also offers 3 complete motorization kits with a 3LI Advance electric motor and 450W 12V lithium battery. A 3LI UltraPro 1CV electric motor and 850W 16.8V lithium battery. A 3LI UltraPro 3CV electric motor and 1200V 16.8V lithium battery.
These complete packs consist of the motor, remote control, bracket, case, circuit breaker and safety key, with the battery inserted in the waterproof case, charger and fixing kit included. These kits are compatible with kayaks fitted with Torqeedo ready inserts, which can be found on several kayak models from different brands.
Ultra light, as an example I put here weight characteristics of the 450W model :
- Total battery weight: 3.9 kg
- Total motor weight: 3.6 kg
- Stand weight: 1.4 kg
- Total weight: 8.9 kg
- Full 3-year warranty
Exceptional value for money, making lithium motors affordable for kayaks.
