THE FIRST MULTI-PURPOSE ELECTRIC OUTBOARD AND ELECTRICAL ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
Much like Southern Powers own vision, Kahe aim to play an active part in decarbonizing our seas and oceans. KAHE’s mission is to design, develop and distribute a nautical clean, soft and innovative electric propulsion solution. What has been achieved in the bicycle market (electric assistance) will gradually find its way into the water sports and leisure market. What is happening in the automotive sector (migration to electric propulsion) will also apply to marine travel. That’s why, with Kahe’s passion for innovation and the nautical world, they have focused on innovative, modular, durable and intelligent product solutions that make surfing, stand-up paddling, kayaking and dinghy boating easier. Their latest Pod 600 also represents an interesting alternative to engines with conventional outboard architecture.

A battery that's easy to recycle
The Kahe POD 600 built in battery can be recharged even when in use, via its charging port, up to 10 amps (approx. 250 watts). This means you can use external batteries (12V or 24V, for example), and/or a solar panel, via a suitable lithium battery charger (optional)!
The battery uses an innovative architecture patented by a Bordeaux-based start-up (GOUACH). The lithium cells are not welded together. This makes the battery easy to dismantle, recycle and repair. It can be removed in a matter of seconds (just 2 screws). As an option, we can supply it with recycled lithium cells.
Nominal voltage: 6V | Capacity: 420 Wh | Lithium technology: 21700 cells assembled without soldering (GOUACH patent) for easy dismantling: lithium cells replaced in minutes, easy recycling, easily repairable, optional use of recycled lithium cells. | Charging: 220 volts (charger supplied, charges in 5 hours), 12V or 24V (optional, charges in 2 hours)
KAHE POD M
The Kahe Pod M is an electric motor surf pod that can be fitted to a paddle, kayak, float tube or dinghy, designed for surfers of all skill levels. It offers a unique combination of durability, convenience, and style. The waterproof Bluetooth remote control attaches to the wrist or paddle. Three speeds are available, to be chosen according to the weight of the rower or the conditions encountered. Like the electric assistance of a bicycle, it offers its user ease of movement in headwinds or against the current. Like its counterpart for cyclists, this electric assist allows you to cover longer distances, or row more easily against wind and current.
The two-blade propeller is fully integrated in a cage, and cannot be damaged by contact with rocks or sand. What’s more, a safety device prevents the Pod M from operating when not in the water
Technical Specs
- Operating time: 45 minutes to 2 hours depending on speed (3 speed levels): from 4 km/h to 7 km/h
- Battery capacity: 99 Wh, provides two hours’ autonomy but one can increase this by opting for a larger battery
- Charging time: 3 hours (when the battery is fully discharged) from a conventional socket
