Supposedly weekend project, from last month :) - Picture Heavy

[danjor]

I am about to tackle this project, currently working on battery waterproof case problems, trying to find one to fit the battery yet can still fit in my kayak. Thanks for posting the pictures I might use some of your ideas along with my ideas of copping the bassyak setup

I recommend checking out the Video from the Itailian kayaker who did it first. He goes into some more details, and uses the original mount more than I did. What size battery are you looking at?

I have a 12.8v 100ah LiFePo4 battery, it only weighs 28lbs. I was trying to make a custom battery box so it fit in the rear hatch of my x factor but I gave up yesterday and ordered a pelican box, I can't believe none of the case company's make a case that fits in the rear hatch of my x factor yet can still fit the battery in, so it looks like the battery is going in the front. I also have a pwm speed controller so I can eliminate the stock speed controller with a more efficient pwm speed controller.
