We tested the BlueROV2 equipped with the SubseaLED 1500W power supply system! We’ve submerged it in a water tank and monitored the voltage and current as we ramp up the power from 25% to 100% gain.
The results? Impressive voltage stability even as the load increases. Check out our video.

Many have faced bandwidth limitations with competitive PSU systems, but our solution changes the game.
With our Power Supply System at full throttle on the Blue Robotics BlueROV2, and even with a Ping360 sonar connected, we achieve over 70 Mbit of remaining bandwidth across a 250m tether - proving high performance without compromise.
Quick recap:
1500W Output: Powers your BlueROV2 efficiently.
Over 70 Mbit Bandwidth: Maintains superior communication, even with sonar and other optional tools installed.
Up to 450meters Tether: Long-distance operation without losing signal integrity.
