Hi Steve,
So it sounds like you're down to one missing feature in the new 1003, the external battery adapter. If I was interested in buying one to use that way, I would contact Torqeedo directly to find out whether they ever intend to add that feature to the 1003, and if not, why not. Any answers that we make up about it here are pure speculation.
Fair winds,

I have a 24 volt 115 AH battery bank on board supported by a 130 watt 24 v solar panel and a Samlex converter that provides 12 volts for the boat's lights, VHF etc. I've taken thirty plus mile trips with this setup and there is no way you could travel this many miles with the integrated battery. Florida can be windless and hot during the summer and you do not want to be drifting around in that heat because you don't have enough battery capacity. Thanks. Steve S.
