Toknav Tboat10 & Tboat20 USVs: Smart Tools for Water Operations
2026-02-03
Water tasks like surveying, monitoring, and patrols need reliable gear. Toknav’s Tboat series—Tboat10 and Tboat20—stands out for everyday use. These USVs mix tough builds, easy operation, and smart features. Today, we’ll break down their specs, how they differ, and why they fit real-world water work.
1. What Makes Toknav Tboat USVs Different?
Many USVs are either too complex or not tough enough. Toknav fixes this with Tboat10 and Tboat20. They focus on “no-fuss reliability” for teams that need consistent results.
First, both use durable materials that handle rough water. Second, they have simple controls—no pro skills needed. Third, they support hot-swappable batteries to keep work going. Whether you’re measuring water depth (Tboat10) or doing multi-task jobs (Tboat20), these USVs skip the hassle and get the job done.
2. Core Specs: Tboat10 vs. Tboat20
2.1 Hull & Build: Tough Yet Easy to Use
Both USVs have strong hulls, but Tboat20 is built for heavier tasks.
Tboat10: M-type monohull (carbon fiber); 30kg total weight; 35kg payload. IP67 protection; handles 3rd-level wind and 2nd-level waves.
Tboat20: V-shaped hull (polyester fiber + Kevlar); 40kg total weight; 50kg payload. IP67 protection; handles 4th-level wind and 3rd-level waves.
Shared Perk: No assembly—unbox and use right away; easy to transport.
2.2 Power & Endurance: Keep Working All Day
Battery life matters for long tasks, and both USVs deliver.
Tboat10: 33.6V 25Ah dual batteries; 7 hours at 1.5m/s; 7m/s max speed. Hot-swappable without shutdown.
Tboat20: 33.6V 25Ah dual batteries; 7 hours at 1.5m/s; 6m/s max speed. Balanced power for longer runs.
Shared Perk: Brushless motors (900W for Tboat10, 1100W for Tboat20) with clog-resistant propellers.
2.3 Navigation & Control: Simple Yet Precise
You don’t need complex training to use these USVs.
Satellite Support: Both use BDS, GPS, GLONASS, Galileo—centimeter-level RTK accuracy (±8mm+1ppm).
Controllers: 1200-nit sunlight-readable touchscreen; 3km range (unlimited via 4G); 8-hour battery.
Shared Perk: tSail software for route planning and real-time data.
2.4 Safety & Expandability: Ready for Any Task
Safety features prevent downtime, and expandability fits diverse jobs.
Safety: Both have radar obstacle avoidance and shallow-water auto-reverse.
Expandability: Tboat10 fits echo sounders, cameras; Tboat20 adds multibeam sonar, ADCP for big tasks.
Shared Perk: Open SDK for custom tools (like gas detectors or LiDAR).
How to Pick: Tboat10 or Tboat20?
Choose based on your daily tasks:
Tboat10: Great for small-to-medium jobs—like lake depth measurement or small-area patrols. Its light weight and fast speed (7m/s) work well in tight spaces.
Tboat20: Best for heavy tasks—like river hydrological monitoring or coastal surveys. Its 50kg payload handles multiple sensors at once.
For water-quality checks, both work: Tboat10 covers small ponds quickly, while Tboat20 takes on large rivers with more tools.
Why Teams Love Toknav Tboats
Beyond specs, these USVs solve real on-site problems:
No Downtime: Hot-swappable batteries mean no stopping to charge.
Easy to Learn: Simple controls let new users start in minutes.
Tough Enough: IP67 and strong hulls handle rain, waves, and bumps.
Grows with You: Add tools as your tasks change—no need for new USVs
Conclusion: Tboats for Practical Water Work
Toknav Tboat10 and Tboat20 aren’t just USVs—they’re time-savers for teams that need results. Tboat10 keeps small jobs fast and easy; Tboat20 takes on big, complex tasks without hassle.
Both skip the over-the-top features and focus on what matters: reliability, ease of use, and long-lasting performance. They fit how you actually work in the field.
