Re: [Electric Boats] High Voltage in a canoe

The 1003 is made to charge underway via a solar panels. There is no way the motor could tell the differance between a solar panel and a battery.

The only thing to look out for is that if you took a battery to the cut off voltage limit of 9.5v I doubt you would get a lot of cycles out of it before it died.

Hi
i have a question to volks? From manul 1003 copied:
English
"7.4.3 Charging the batteries from the on-board batteries
It is possible to charge the battery from any DC voltage source
within a range of 9.5V ... 50V. The required minimum current is 4A.
Forchargingplease use a wire cross-section of at least 0.5 mmxmm.
The dimensions of the required barrel connector are 5.5/2.5 mm.
For example, it is a good idea to use the 12-V battery charger lead
made by Torqeedo. Pay attention to the polarity - see diagram."

From this coming: DC voltage, that means it can be use an battery without inverter and loader. It is all right?

I have a Torqeedo 1003 travel electric motor that I use on a Precision sailboat and a flat back canoe , a spare lithium ion battery cost $699, I have a couple of long trips planned with the canoe and am suffering from " range anxiety" . Torqeedo recently approved charging the battery while underway with a "house battery",
I have a AGM optima bluetop battery with a Samlex 150 watt pure sine wave inverter to run the Torqeedo fast 80 watt charger, I ordered a Heavy duty, in-line fuseholder for ATC/ATO type fuses. 10 gauge wire for up to 30 amp rating. My question is am I in danger of being electrocuted by running 110 power in a canoe with maybe a little water on the floor?
