Spirit 1.0 Plus/Evo motor cover for use with external battery

This engine cover is designed to replace the integrated battery of the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus and Spirit 1.0 Evo outboard electric motors. It allows configuring the motor for exclusive use with an external 48 V battery, thus providing extended range and greater modularity.

Using this cover with an external battery offers several key advantages:

Extended range: Allows connection of higher-capacity external batteries (such as ePropulsion’s E series) for longer passages. Modularity: Provides flexibility to use different external batteries based on requirements. Protection: Ensures protection of the motor’s internal components when the integrated battery is removed, while maintaining system watertightness.

This engine cover is specifically designed to be compatible with the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus and ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Evo electric outboard motors.

No, this engine cover is specifically designed for the Spirit 1.0 Plus and Spirit 1.0 Evo models. Compatibility with the standard Spirit 1.0 is not guaranteed and may result in fit or operational issues.

This cover allows connection to 48 V external batteries. It is compatible with 48 V ePropulsion batteries from the E series (E60, E100, E163) as well as other compatible third-party 48 V batteries.
