Torqueedo Ultralight 403 Kayak Motor by Power EquipmentTorqeedo Ultralight 403 the ultimate small kayak motor
The Torqeedo Ultralight is the e-bike equivalent for a kayak. It gives you that extra boost when you need it. Torqeedo’s Ultralight 403 is a one horsepower electric motor for kayaks and canoes. It weighs just 7.3 kg, including the battery, and it is peaceful. It gives you gentle propulsion without noise or pollution. With the Ultralight it is easier to get to your favourite fishing spot. Or perhaps you plan to do an extended fishing trip around a lake or coastline. With the optional solar panels the Ultralight’s batteries re-charge as you glide along. Every user has their own style using the Ultralight. Some operate it at low levels whilst they paddle, and some use it to get a boost in a current. Others use it as a safety backup – the Ultralight will get you home if you injure an arm. Or perhaps your use will change as you get older or if you get an injury or disability. The Ultralight can help you keep doing what you love. At low speed of about 4.0 kph it will travel a distance of 35 km, which is 8.5 hours of battery life. At half throttle (about 6 kph) it travels 25 km on four hours of battery. On full throttle (about 9 kph) it’ll take you 7.0 km over an hour’s worth of battery. The Ultralight has a universal ball joint that fits most brands of kayaks and uses the existing steerage system. This means you can have fishing rod in hand whilst trawling along, steering with the foot pedals. Or you can leave the prop fixed in place whilst you steer with a paddle. It’s very flexible. Ultralight 403 first became available in Australia and New Zealand in 2016 through Power Equipment. Power Equipment is the distributor of the Torqeedo marine electric engines including Ultralight, Travel, Cruise and Deep Blue. |
