Torqeedo claims about 50% overall efficiency for their motors.
Can I assume this is at or near full power level? Is their efficiency lower at low power levels?
When I get my slim boat done I'll be testing it at first with my 801 Base, with the standard prop, and also with a 16x16 airplane prop. I've calculated what performance I should get at low power levels (50 to 100 watts) assuming the 50% efficiency touted, but I suspect it will turn out to be much lower than that.
Just wondering if anyone has ever tested this (low power efficiency) with a Torqeedo and a fast light hull capable of moving at a good clip at low power levels.
