E-Series batteries by ePropulsion

Electric outboard manufacturer ePropulsion has announced its new range of E-Series batteries for 2023.

The Chinese-Hong Kong firm says the new range has a more ergonomic design than previous ranges. The E60 and E163 will supplement the existing E80 and E175 batteries in the range, ‘providing consistent performance and smart operation, delivering up to 3,000 charging cycles for a reliable user experience,’ according to the company.

ePropulsion’s new E-Series lithium iron phosphate batteries are said to offer three times higher energy density and 70 per cent less weight than lead-acid batteries, meaning the E-Series is suitable for smaller vessels with minimal interior storage space. The E60 is designed for use with the ePropulsion Navy 3.0 Evo (6HP) and the E163 is designed for the Navy 6.0 Evo (9.9HP).

Danny Tao, CEO of ePropulsion says: “While capacity is an obvious focus of user-oriented innovation, making batteries easier to use is also vital to promoting the adoption of electric propulsion. ePropulsion electric outboard engines combined with the new batteries are the perfect solution for boaters looking to embrace quiet, clean and environmentally conscious propulsion.”

All ePropulsion outboards are built on a 48-volt architecture. ePropulsion says its E-Series batteries are designed to provide optimal performance for the entire range of ePropulsion electric motors.

ePropulsion and the new E-Series range are on display at boot Holland from 8-12 March 2023, at Stand 3101.
