First Look | VersaDrive Hybrid System: Controls, Charging & Smart Efficiency

Take a closer look at the control interface of the VersaDrive E-Hybrid propulsion system by Integrel Solutions, as featured aboard Balance Catamarans. Read more: https://balancecatamarans.com/inside-look-at-the-versadrive-hybrid-system-revolutionizing-sailing/ In this walkthrough, Jason Crawford from Integrel demonstrates how to operate the system in both electric drive and generation modes — including single-engine propulsion, regenerative energy sharing between hulls, and real-time battery monitoring. You'll learn how to: ⚙️ Switch between drive and generate modes for each hull 🔋 Monitor battery input/output and system load 📉 Adjust charge and discharge rates to optimize battery health 🛥️ Fine-tune idle RPMs for smooth, quiet maneuvering 🌿 Extend battery life by managing power flow with precision The VersaDrive isn’t just a propulsion upgrade — it’s a smarter, quieter, and more sustainable way to cruise. 📢 Stay tuned for upcoming videos where we share real-world sea trial data: • Boat speed at various RPMs • Charging output per hull • How one engine can drive and charge both hulls simultaneously Have questions or want to see VersaDrive on your own Balance Catamaran?
