PowerDrive 45 - technical features
-
The motors occasionally require the replacement of carbon brushes. However, experience shows that this is very rarely necessary.
-
The shatterproof motor shaft absorbs even the strongest impact without breaking.
-
The motor can be tilted up in just a few steps in case of risk of grounding
-
Very quiet, virtually silent (perfect for anglers)
-
Low power consumption and long range thanks to the digital Maximizer function
Correct shaft length for bow motors
137 cm shaft length is suitable for normally high gunwales. Measure the distance from the top edge of the bow to the waterline and add 50 cm. So if your distance is, for example, 80 cm (+50 cm), you are in the perfect range.
Batteries for the PowerDrive 45 FP
We mainly recommend the lithium batteries from Ultimatron or Forster Batteries. Either the 12 V 100 Ah version from Ultimatron with Bluetooth and app, or the Ecowatt model with display. From Forster Batteries, we usually use the 12 V 50 Ah model with Bluetooth + app. The lightweight Rebelcell battery cases are also excellent.
Basically, AGM batteries are also compatible with the PowerDrive 45 FP. AGM batteries are significantly heavier and not as easy to handle. However, the battery status can be displayed directly on the bow motor. This does not work with lithium batteries due to the voltage.
