still somewhat skeptical that an epoxy seal will last next to turbulent water with sea debris. I know other strategies are magnetic couplings. Still, maybe replacing cheap motors frequently will be cheaper than a long lasting one (if one exists??). Make sure your mounting plates are accessible!
- BigDaveFromATL 12y agoi assume it'd be something better than just a standard epoxy. there's plenty of underwater-specific epoxies and coatings used in the oil&gas industry that'd hold up just fine.
- gallamine 12y agoBy way of reference, there is nothing comparable within 10x the cost of this thruster. If you're worried about longevity then perhaps $1,000/thruster is more reasonable.
- tlarkworthy 12y agoOh wow, I did not see the price, yeah that's crazy good.
