Good to see a company developing these. The $50K price point is a bit steep though :crazy:

I haven't done a range test with the new setup. Probably won't until it warms up a lot.
Nothing automatic, just the manual switch controlling the main contactor. I haven't been in more than 2 feet of water in a long time so it's not really an issue. There would need to be more than a...
Finally got around to upgrading to lithium. 16 CALB 100AH LiFePO4 cells giving me over 5kWh of storage. Should be about double the usable capacity compared to the lead AGM Odyssey's I originally...
Actually you have that backwards. Series DC motors similar to what I used are relatively cheap, look for used forklift motors. Alltrax 48V-72V 400-600 amp series motor controllers are also...
No worries, I just thought it was funny to see my own videos linked.
Um, yeah, that's me :hello: and those videos are already linked in this thread. :D
I've been following them on youtube for a few years, looks as if they have some nice products. Expensive I suspect. I'm working on my own riding lawn mower now, it will probably be lead acid to...
Yes I remember our PM conversation about it. If you start a build thread on it post a link in this thread or PM me so I don't miss it.
If I do the switch to lithium that should take over 100lbs out of the back which should help the weight balance.
Thanks. I might be doing an upgrade to lithium soon.

More toys for the AMPhibian. Steel belly band with an angle iron clamping system instead of bolts through the seam. I didn't like the idea of drilling holes in the plastic so I came up with this...
Looks as if you riveted it down as you went, which I failed to do.

Wow, that does look nice. I guess I have no excuses other than my own incompetence :dontknow: :hmmmm2: Were any of them done upside down the way I tired it? I wonder if I was losing too much heat...
Hydromike was able to do it with 1/4 HDPE, but he cut it into two sections I think, and probably had more heat than I did. The thicker material may have been less prone to localized hot spots and...
1/8 inch HDPE.
Thought I'd give a one year update on the epoxy and fiberglass repair. So far so good, the epoxy and glass have stayed well attached, even when going over rocks. I do wish I had put on another...
I had good luck using epoxy and fiberglass cloth. Description and pics here:
