The ePropulsion eLite is a 1.5HP equivalent 500W electric outboard motor with an integrated lithium-ion battery, and is the most compact and lightweight electric outboard in its class. Perfectly blending efficiency and mobility, it’s an easy-to-use alternative to small internal combustion engines for small boats, RIBs and SIBs, dinghies and tenders. It’s an ideal solution to service sailing and yachting vessels as an ultra-portable solution to get to shore and back.
Despite its tiny size and weight (6.7kg / 14.7lbs) the eLite has enough battery capacity to run at full throttle for up to 45 minutes. That runtime can be further increased by connecting it to an external 12V battery (via the 12VDC charger), which can charge the internal battery while in operation.
Its innovative design and commitment to sustainability make it the perfect alternative to traditional internal combustion engines. Dead-simple setup, user-friendly operation and extreme portability ensure a hassle-free experience, making it ideal for freshwater adventurers and marine enthusiasts.
The eLite is available in two shaft lengths (short and long). The long shaft version is about 15cm (6″) longer, and both are adjustable by about 12cm (4.5″). Most small dinghies will use the short shaft version.
Includes carrying bag and an integrated 5V USB-C charging port to charge other accessories like your phone.
Embrace the future of marine propulsion with eLite’s advanced technology, ensuring a smooth, efficient, and environmentally responsible journey on the water.
Note that the longshaft version is special order only—we don’t stock these.
