*This makes my old motor look like a toy **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it's well built. I haven't had it on the water yet, but I'm very sure it will perform just fine.*
have an Intex trolling motor My issue is that when I turn it on , it's goes for between ,5 and 8 seconds then stops , I have the correct battery which is fully charged , and I have tried on my friends other batteries and it does the same thing , I'm no electrician but I have looked at the connections and they are all clean and tight , any help would be appreciated
Picked up one of these open box. My plan was to use it with a 4S 60AH Li-on battery that I made with leftover 18650 cells. Problem is the motor has some. Built-in circuitry that won't let it turn on if input voltage is too high. My guess is 15V or higher but I haven't tested it yet. I tried a 3S battery, which works well but the battery meter always shows 1 green bar, and completely shuts off when the voltage gets below 10V meaning you don't get to use a good portion of your lithium batteries on either the high or the low end. I understand the safety features of a low and high voltage cutoff, but I am looking now to bypass those with a pwm controller.
It's worked great for us we've used it on the snake river all the time and our customers love it! If there are defects or issues with it, it does have a 1 year manufactures warranty so you're covered. If you're looking for a great trolling motor the Intex is the best!
Great trolling motor and for the price you can't beat it. It's saltwater approved/rated but I have not tested it yet. Does great so far in lakes and rivers
I checked out their website and it appears they don't ship to Canada. How neighborly. but I guess not selling outside the USA is fine if you want to cut out a few extra potential customers.
Hi first thank you for sharing. I just bought Seahawks small one 2 persons. I would like to have the same motor batteries to be able to go fishing in the sea this summer.please can you tell me how much will I pay for everything except the Seahawk. Thank you
I just got this motor with my Intex excursion 5 using a 120ah 12v deep cycle leisure battery but only get half an hour of power any help or suggestions would be great
I got the New port one that is just like this as far as 40 pounds, tilting, battery meter, but Newport's is way better. Salt water worthy, stainless steel, 3 blades on propeller etc.... so great. The reviews on this Intex motor are horrid on Amazon. It's total crap apparently.
rubber i have been reading the comments of this trolling motor in amazon and they said that doest work well and is defective. can you clear my dudes about this motor is good? because i dont know if i going to buy it
Possibly try doing the research on your on. It isn't very hard at all actually. I did it by simply getting in my vehicle and going around places to research. As well as look on the internet. Wow!
Name of the video is misleading... it should just say Intex motor review and not mention the Minn Kota! I'm actually trying to see how can I mount a Minn Kota into an inflatable boat and I thought this video would give me that info... :-(
I just bought the same motor , plugged it in a new battery , I never used the motor yet because it came out the box and only 2 bars charged , I plugged it in a marine deep cycle magnacharge 105 AH , there's power to the motor but it won't charge.... please help I promised my son I would take him out we don't have much time together 😢 I can't break this promise
@@fpsfein It worked flawlessly for 3 years. I really liked the battery indicator and the tilt at the handle. Because I used it at the front of the boat it always felt a little underpowered. The first thing to go was the red tilt level assembly. Upon calling the supplier to buy a replacement I was told there was no parts list and to buy another entire unit. So, i then fabricated one out of aluminum and it worked for a while longer. Shortly after, the speed selector switch failed. With this occurence I scrapped it and bought a Minn Kota. Overall I was satisfied with the unit and may have kept it if parts were availible but they were not.
@@daleval2182 Weeelll.... I decided to go to a store near my beach and ask what trolling motor I'd need for a rubber boat on the ocean along the coast and they told me I shouldn't go out there with a trolling motor because the currents are too strong, even with a strong trolling motor lol
*This makes my old motor look like a toy **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it's well built. I haven't had it on the water yet, but I'm very sure it will perform just fine.*
I’ve had this exact unit for several years and it’s extremely reliable and held up pretty nicely. Good thrust
I had to dislike this video because you did not do a comparison, the title says "vs. Minn Kota" you di not compare the two.
Do you take the battery on the boat with you when you go onto the water? Does it stay connected the whole time or do you charge it before?

I'm having the same issue. Any luck in figuring out the problem?
I'm going with minn kota
I'll stay with Minn Kota

You need either lifepo cells or you can use a converter to buck the 4s pack voltage down which is what I would do if I had to use 18650.

wrong, Newport's motor is waaaay better
What happened with "a 2 year warranty" ?

بالبحرين مجمع التنين يبيع نفس القارب مع المكينه ب150دينار بخريني يعني 1500ريال سعودي
how do you make the mount
it all depends on the type of the battery that is used. We have had average times between 3-6 hours but it can be different than that.
Hi i have same this boat i don’t know what battery I should buy can you please tell me
Marc, with this motor the cables do come with the motor so if you purchase this all you need extra is the battery.
I checked out their website and it appears they don't ship to Canada. How neighborly. but I guess not selling outside the USA is fine if you want to cut out a few extra potential customers.
My tilt lever is non-functional. How do I replace it repair it
What is the system you use to attach the engine to that boat?
This was very helpful thank you so much!😊
How many HP (Horse power) does it have? Thank you very much!

Hi can u tell me what battery u use? I have the 30lbs thrust motor on inflatable 500 hydroforce boat
can you see on the electric motor what percentage is the battery?
What's the amp rating per speed setting on this motor so we can calculate time of battery use ?
has anyone found an after market propeller that will fit this motor?
what was the length of motor shaft?
I opted for the 30# minn kota, if anyone has any experience with this one please share
You cant switch it around to run off the rear of the boat.
Do you offer a shorter shaft? If not, can the shaft be shortened?
Can i use a battery with 65lbs of thrust for this trolling motor?
how long I can use the motor rather than a standard battery is depleted
New to boating--do cables come with the motor needed to hook to the battery? Thanks
of course they do
i would like to know the price and how to order
💕
I just got this motor with my Intex excursion 5 using a 120ah 12v deep cycle leisure battery but only get half an hour of power any help or suggestions would be great
What was the age of the battery?
You should make a video on the colossus 4 man boat.
Hi. I would like to buy a boat electric motor And I was wondering if it needs any permission or registration to navigate in Miami beach?
In Most states you'll have to register your boat
Let us know how you like it!

Thanks for your video. Which is the maximum speed approximately that can be reached with a plastic boat ?
Awesome we're glad that you like it!
Can I use this motor in salt water?
Doesn't say so from watching it this video. So with that said, I have one now. In the end you could just purchase a 30" shaft, that was easy.
Go Minn Kota way more reliable I tested them both min Kota and index and min kota won. So go min Kota
Please can you send me the link from where I can from
Where’s the comparison?
He gave none 😂
You can use in Salt or Freshwater!
can we use this in salt water or min kota in salt water
Not this, use a salt water, Minn Kota
rubber i have been reading the comments of this trolling motor in amazon and they said that doest work well and is defective. can you clear my dudes about this motor is good? because i dont know if i going to buy it
How much is it

One of the best trolling motors! Use it on my Sevylor FishHunter

you dont make it you buy it on ebay or there site
is it only for a intex boat? BTW its so cheap that i dont gonna buy it :P
A quick release that will decide how deep ur shaft can go? Alrighty then.
I just bought the same motor , plugged it in a new battery , I never used the motor yet because it came out the box and only 2 bars charged , I plugged it in a marine deep cycle magnacharge 105 AH , there's power to the motor but it won't charge.... please help I promised my son I would take him out we don't have much time together 😢 I can't break this promise
I just purchased one. I will add my two cents when i get it, then use it for the first time.

Should have just said vs paddles, would have made more sense.

🤣🤣🤣
Porque nunca hacen videos en español 😠
Ooohh brand new...
Oh..
8 year old vid
good little motor but little
😁😁😁
; )
Its a piece of shit.
Nice trolling motor but rubber boats suck 😂😆 buy a kayak 👍👍👈
Awful!
How fast does it let you go on a small rubber boat for 3 people? I don't need a precise answer just an average
I would guess around 4 to 5mph. Because a 30lb maxes at 3mph and a 56lb thrust can max around 8mph
@@Defrap22 Oh that's not too bad actually! Thank you :)
Fat people, skinny peoples? 😂👍 Im fat, its too slow, get a. MINN Kota, these are rated shit, a 50 lb MK, about 5 MPH max. 40 about 4 mph. FYI
