The length of time may I go without recharging?

There are various elements in determining how long it is possible to go before you decide to need to charge. Winds, tides, currents, loads, propeller type, vessel rate and electric battery size are a handful of instances. With a generator aboard operating time are extended or made constant.

Just what do I get with my EP engine buy?

When buying an Elco E-Power System, you’re not just obtaining a motor, you’re purchasing all of the essential components to power the vessel with electric propulsion, excluding the batteries and charger. This includes the E-Gauge IV, Throttle, Ignition Key, Power On Light, Energy Increase Button, Controller/AC Inverter, and 15’ Pre-Wired Harness. All Elco system components tend to be pre-wired for “plug & play” set up. With batteries configured, one's body is ready to go in mins. Re-powering with electric is far less complex than changing a diesel because there are no gas, air conditioning or exhaust lines, throttle linkages, moving linkages, or specific wires to deal with. E-Power Electric Hybrid choices consist of generators and/or solar/ wind components to meet continuous cruising requires.
