The Bixpy K-1 Motor is a compact, lightweight, high-performance marine motor designed and optimized specifically for personal water propulsion and small watercraft such as kayaks, dinghies canoes, paddle boards, etc...
While most marine motors try to achieve more power using larger batteries and propellers, Bixpy has completely reinvented the trolling motor by borrowing technologies from hydro-electric dam turbines, jet engines and airfoil technics used in aerospace applications.
The K-1 Motor is roughly 20% shorter in length than its predecessor, the J-2 Motor, yet offers the same massive output the J-2 motors provided in a quieter, more sleek, and more rugged aluminum housing.
The K-1 Motor is equipped with a highly efficient and finely tuned brushless motor for optimal performance when paired with its NASA-inspired propeller, the Bixpy PowerShroud™ and finely tuned Bixpy Batteries.
The compact size of this mighty K-1 Motor has allowed us to adapt it to a variety of applications otherwise impossible using conventional marine motors. The plug-and-play installation of the motor on hundreds of existing kayaks, paddle boards, and inflatables allows us the opportunity to have more than 20 different mounting adapters to let you motorize virtually any watercraft.
The K-1 Motor can be paired with an improved version of the company's existing PP-378 battery (Version 4) or the new PP-768 battery, released in early February of 2023, which provides more than 24 hours of run time with the K-1 platform.
