Re: [electricboats] Flange coupler for Thunderstruct gear reduction

Search for Buck Algonquin shaft coupler

I'll get you details when I am back home later.

Thank you so much for the very useful reply!  Would you mind mentioning where do you get the actual 4"x1" driver couplers?  I've looked all over Amazon and internet and seems not easy to find a coupler that can take the torsion force.  Or is it easy to manufacture on a lathe?

Re: [electricboats] Sea Bob Scooter

I’d look at a pod-type motor - already water proof. Something like a Torqeedo? If you go for 48v, the 2,500 watt motor needs about 50A - easy to deal with. The motor should not be inside the watertight shell - needs the water flow for cooling.  Figure out how long you want to go and do the math to determine battery size - a 70 AH/48v/3,360wH battery will give you over an hour at full throttle with a 2,500w motor. Less expensive to build your own using prismatic cells such as Winston, Sinopoly or CALB. A Daly BMS from AliExpress will handle your small motor OK.

Re: [electricboats] Solar charging

A other option may be something like a portable solar generator and the foldable panels that go with them. That could do double duty outside your boat as well - say if you are camping by boat. Less efficient than a dedicated system but sometimes a thing that gets multiple uses is more efficient financially.  Jackery and Goal Zero are brands that I've had success with.

Use a solar panel and a boost controller. They are available to charge 36 or 48 volts.  I am using two 100w panels into a boost controller to charge my 48v battery pack.

OK friends, here's the deal.  I have a 36v.  trolling motor as aux. propulsion on my HA18, that's a catboat.  I power it with a 36v lit ion rechargeable bike battery. Works good.  I'm trying to be able to put a little solar juice in it while underway.  What's the simplest way to do that?  

thanks,

Glenn/NC
