SkelStart Engine Starting Modules
The Ultimate Solution for Engine Starting
The SkelStart Engine Start Module is a revolutionary alternative to traditional lead-acid batteries, utilizing cutting-edge ultracapacitor technology to provide unparalleled reliability. This technology is incredibly beneficial for vessels equipped with Lithium House Batteries.
When starting Diesel engines, large voltage spikes often occur. The SkelStart module completely isolates the starter from the battery bank, completely resolving voltage spike problems that can interfere with sensitive marine electronics.
Say goodbye to the typical problems of lead-acid engine start batteries: you no longer need to replace batteries every 3 years, nor store dangerous sulfuric acid in the engine room where evaporation causes outgassing and corrosion.
- Incredible Lifespan: Lasts for 10+ years compared to a mere 3 years for lead-acid batteries.
- Superior Cranking Power: 2130 CCA provides reliable starting power in extreme temperatures from -40°C (-40°F) to tropical heat (+65°C / 149°F).
- Cost & Space Savings: Eliminates the need for expensive DC-DC chargers typically installed to keep lead-acid start batteries full from the Lithium House bank. The SkelStart features its own built-in DC-DC step-up charger, requiring only 9V to fully recharge in 15 minutes.
- Environmentally Friendly & Lightweight: Weighing only 8.5 kg (18 lbs) and containing zero hazardous materials (No Hazmat).
It is the clear winner for Catamarans, Monohulls, and Charter Boats alike!
