TORQEEDO Travel 1003 Electric Outboard Reviews

TORQEEDO Travel 1003 for daysailers up to 1,500 KG , tenders, dinghies and deck boats effortlessly for up to 10 hours., this motor sets a new standard for quiet, lightweight and ecologically-friendly propulsion. With a built-in ultra-efficient, lithium-manganese battery pack, Torqeedo Travel outboards deliver power and range. (Range varies depending on speed and boat type. At full throttle run time is about 30 minutes, slower speeds result in up to 6 hours or more!) Improved efficiency means users enjoy up to 30% more power compared to previous Torqeedo models. Additionally, new models are waterproof to IP67 standards. Ease-of-use is enhanced by a four-function display that shows percent of battery power remaining, speed through water and range remaining at current speed. Speed and range are calculated using an integrated GPS-receiver. An audible signal warns you when the battery charge drops to 30%. The smallest carbon footprint of any propulsion motor.



 Can do everything that a 1.5/ 3 HP petrol outboard can, plus it’s environmentally friendlier, quieter, lighter and more convenient
- Audible alarm countdown: as soon as the remaining battery charge reaches 30 %, 20 % and 10 % a warning signal is given
- Completely waterproof (IP 67)
- On-board computer with GPS-based calculation of remaining range
- Solar rechargeable – including during the voyage
- Can be easily dismantled for transport and space-saving storage
- A clean affair: no matter how or where you store your Travel, there’s no risk that anything will leak out or smell
- From fully discharged, charging with the charger provided takes approximately 15 hours (Travel 1003).

Impressive quality and engineering. I use it on a Watertender 9.9 and my expectations have been exceeded. Range and speed are very good. I replaced a 4hp four stroke and really like a gas/oil free 30lb motor. I ran it several hours, approx. 2-4 miles and got home with 50% battery remaining. I am planning on adding a solar panel to extend the range and recharge while at the sand bar. Considering it's weight at 29.5 lbs and range of 2-16 NM depending on speed, no oil changes, water pump impellers, thermostats, tune-ups, flushing, not having to start & warm-up, not having to reach back to shift F-N-R, only twisting the throttle. This is the perfect outboard for 2 - 4HP applications. I Love It !

Torqeedo review, not a tolling motor but a electric outboard engine!

Compare the tolling motors,the Torqeedo are much powerful. With a Strong electric motor,sets new standards in the areas of torque, efficiency and power per weight and volume. For example, the  Torqeedo Cruise 2.0r   motor's power close to 5HP comparable gas outboards (thrust) is 6HP and the weight only 38.6lbs.The Torqeedo motor with 10000RPM Combined with a 1:14 step-down gear, the 800-watt motor can easily drive a propeller typically used by a 20 HP combustion engine.



Torqeedo Cruise 2.0r (remotely Steered) Outboard, Long Shaft

The new Cruise 2.0 R is the perfect choice for boats on green lakes, fishing boats, sailboats and catamarans. It operates on a 24 V lead-gel or AGM battery bank.


The Torqeedo motors also take on a new dimension with regard to efficiency. They experience no excitation current and brush losses: and are equipped with additional, patented control mechanisms; reducing losses to a minimum. The
efficiency not only ensures the efficient use of the available battery capacity it also prevents thermal problems. In this way; Torqeedo can combine high performance with a small structural shape.
