"Electric Fuel's new batteries were launched in the U.S. and received a warm welcome. In the long run, our extremely powerful batteries offer an excellent return on investment."
The 24V li-ion battery is designed for propulsion of electric boats, and yachts, and for backup power of engine-propelled boats. The battery can be integrated into newly designed boats or used as a drop-in replacement for traditional lead-acid in a wide range of marine and professional vehicle applications.
The 24V battery pack is a standard sized G49 and can serve in professional applications in tough marine environments where reliable and clean energy is needed.
The 24V rechargeable battery has the following advantages:
- High energy and power density: supporting high power thrust motors
- Up to 1,000 cycles, enabling usage for up to ten years
- Internal BMS providing safe and protected operation, monitoring and protection from
over discharge (battery does not drain if electric equipment is left on)
- LED state-of-charge indicator and remote communication enabling the battery to be
monitored from boat computers through CANBus communication protocol
- Fast charging - approximately 2 hours to full charge
- High charge current management feature which facilitates charge from high power
sources without disconnection
