I installed one, but my boat is still on the hard, so I don't know how it will perform yet I bought a kit from thunderstruct_ev. They configured it for 96v. I bench tested it before putting in my boat and it ran as expected. My sailboat is 45', 13 tons. I plan to use 32 EVE prismatic cells @280 amp hours.
Anyone with ME1616 experience?

I am planning to run one at 48VDC, what is the actual kW available??
?
I tend to believe only the most conservative numbers, so I saw a post in EV Europe listing it as 6kW continuous when run at 48V with 2000rpm listed. (assuming it cant go faster than 2000 rpm at 48VDC?)
?
Here is the verbage:
- Power max 50kW@96V
- Power continuous 6kW@48VDC – 2000rpm – 12 kW@96VDC – 4000rpm
And the site:

I would love to go to 96VDC but I do not think that is wise for all of the accessory systems on the boat and since i always find a way to arc something despite precautions.
?
Any other 48vdc recommendations?? Thank you!!
