DIY Electric outboard range test!

[@KevinLauscher]

Neat video! I'm a freedom unit enjoyer and the efficiency was 2.1 miles /kWh! Not bad!

[@johndehosson]

@KevinLauscher I love numbers, particularly those imperial ones 😅Over here on the wrong side of the earth we got 290W/km which is comparible to driving a Tesla Model 3 at 110 kph on a freeway in snowy conditions😅

[@Seafariireland]

Excellent!

[@johndehosson]

@Seafariireland Cheers! 🍻

I see the paddle came in handy

[@johndehosson]

@Atheist66644 Up the creek without a paddle morphed into "on the lake with one paddle" 😅 /John

[@bengtsjoberg]

What would be the price if I wanted to buy that engine and battery? 🤠

[@johndehosson]

Tjena @bengtsjoberg 😀Kila in på www.marsons.se, all info där 😀/John

Now try it with a 6 hp 2-stroke outboard motor and see how far you will get with 54.43 liters of fuel (approximately 43 kg). 🙂

[@daqq]

Remind me how much fuel you can collect using flat panels laid out in the sun? Renewable resources have other benefits to balance out their shortcomings.

[@johndehosson]

@iamkian Probably HEAPS further! But you don't get back with an awesome heavy battery in your boat if you do that 😅😅Nice to hear from you again! /John

Around here on the electric only lakes, a 2-stroke outboard with 54.43 liters of fuel would get you to jail.
