Detailed description

Designed for clean and silent electric propulsion, the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus 1 kW electric outboard motor delivers performance equivalent to a 3 HP petrol engine. This short-shaft model (62.5 cm) is intended for lightweight boats such as tenders, small sailboats, or fishing boats (up to approximately 1000 kg displacement), providing a static thrust of 316 N.

Design and performance

The Spirit 1.0 Plus features a 1 kW motor with a maximum efficiency of 55% and a nominal speed of 1200 rpm. Its 2-blade composite propeller (11 inches diameter, 5.8 inches pitch) ensures efficient propulsion. The motor, without battery, weighs 10.6 kg and operates at a nominal voltage of 48 V. Natural cooling ensures reliability in marine environments. Manual trim angles are 0°, 7°, 14°, and 21°, with a manual tilt angle of 70°.

Features and use

This motor is equipped with an integrated tiller for direct control and an electric start via button. The backlit digital display on the tiller shows real-time power, remaining range, battery level (when a battery is connected), and operating voltage. For added safety, a magnetic circuit breaker is included. Throttle control is progressive (stepless throttle control) for precise response, and the tiller can be used ambidextrously. Stainless steel metal electrical connectors enhance robustness and corrosion resistance. The tiller is foldable and adjustable for easy transport. This motor is compatible with external ePropulsion E-Series 48 V batteries and can be charged via optional solar charging accessories.

Expert opinion

« Technical analysis of the Spirit 1.0 Plus: efficiency and modularity for small boats »

The ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus 1 kW electric outboard motor with a short shaft of 62.5 cm is presented as an electric propulsion option for dinghies, small sailboats, and fishing boats up to approximately 1000 kg displacement. The absence of an integrated battery in this pack offers interesting flexibility: it allows users to choose the battery capacity best suited to their range requirements, or to integrate the motor into an existing 48 V system compatible with ePropulsion E-Series batteries.

Its weight of 10.6 kg without battery greatly facilitates transport and installation, a significant advantage for sailors who regularly remove their motor. The short shaft is specifically designed for transom heights of 40 to 50 cm, ensuring optimal propeller immersion and maximizing thrust efficiency of 316 N, equivalent to a 3 HP thermal engine. The integration of an ambidextrous tiller with digital display and magnetic kill switch enhances user experience through simplicity and safety. Maintenance is minimal, mainly limited to rinsing with fresh water after use and keeping electrical contacts clean, which simplifies overall upkeep.
