Bixpy K-1 Outboard Kit
This 3rd generation of Bixpy’s hugely successful motor system is incredibly light, and can be fitted onto virtually any small watercraft, thanks to the wide range of clever mounts and adaptors available. Instead of using a larger propellor or battery system, the Bixpy K1 uses propulsion technology to generate incredible power from a small unit and is virtuality silent when running.
Included in the kit is a fully waterproof lithium-ion battery pack that will power the 33lb thrust K-1 motor for approximately 10 hours (at slower speeds), or 80 minutes at maximum speed. The battery pack is compact and easily fits in the rear tank well of most kayaks, or on the deck of a SUP board. The pack has positive buoyancy so it becomes unsecured or if dropped in the water it will float. The battery pack is supplied with a 2-pin US plug, so will require a US-to-UK adaptor plug for use in the UK.
The Bixpy K1 motor is easily controlled by a waterproof, wireless control unit that can be wrist mounted and has a magnetic kill switch to ensure the user and other water users’ safety. Not everyone wants to travel flat out, and the motor has x12 forward speed settings, and 3x reverse settings and it can be used to assist on general excursions or to increase the power when required.
One of the top attributes is the overall weight of this system and including the battery pack is just over 4.5kg. Making it easy to carry to and from the water’s edge, and hardly effects the boat/boards performance/trim. Loved by kayak anglers who need their hands for fishing rather than paddling, the Bixpy motor system is also extremely popular as an electric SUP motor.
Bixpy have recognised that with such a huge range of small watercraft that could benefit from their propulsion system, they have put plenty of research and development into a wide range of mounts and adaptors so there is a solution for most small watercraft. Please see our Bixpy Adaptor Page for some of the more popular solutions, or contact us for any help and assistance.
