Rudder Position Mount A lightweight aluminum assembly allows you to convert your motor into a stern mounted option. Easily adapting to a Hobie Twist and Stow rudder, this makes for a quick conversion to a hybrid kayak…allowing you to pedal and use the electric motor at the same time to extend your range. Or, turn off the motor and use it as a rudder with the MirageDrive™ as the ultimate stealth propulsion system to your favorite fishing or bird watching spot. |

LITHIUM BATTERY/COMPUTER/GPS A 230wh Lithium-Manganese battery (8Ah at 28.8V) is the heart that pumps the power to Torqeedo’s Ultra light 402 motor. At only 6.6 pounds, this battery case has a built-in GPS (for speed calculations) and is completely watertight…it actually floats! At a full charge, this battery will continue to perform for up to 8 hours (based on 2 MPH cruising speed). |
REMOTE THROTTLE The remote throttle allows you to mount your controls conveniently near your seating position using a RAM® mounting system (provided with kit). The easy to understand readout gives you all of the critical information you need to know to get you to and from your destination. The throttle pad is also equipped with a magnetic key pad for a safety key in the event you are separated from your kayak or to prevent theft. |
THRU-HULL FITTINGS The installation kit comes with all the parts needed to run all of your wires internally for a clean deck with minimal exposed wire. Hobie's totally unique connection system allows everything to be completely IP68 watertight when connected.
