Key rules
Gen5 batteries do NOT work in LIFT4 or LIFT3 — and Gen4 batteries do NOT work in LIFT5 or LIFTX.
The Classic Hand Controller does NOT work with LIFT5 or LIFTX.
LCS propulsion does NOT work on bolt-on boards — and bolt-on propulsion does NOT work on LCS boards.
The Lift Hand Controller is the only controller that works with every Lift eFoil ever made.
The Quick Charger Gen5/LIFTX is the only charger that covers both Gen5 and LIFTX batteries.
