BATTERY & CHARGING
BATTERY RANGE
How far can I travel on my electric bike?
The total distance you can travel on your electric bike is not an easy amount to
specify. The range depends on many different factors including, but not limited to:
• Total Weight (weight of the bike + rider + cargo)
• Resistance (wind, tire pressure, speed, road conditions and altitude)
• Outside Temperature
• The level of pedal assistance and throttle usage
• The condition of the battery
(battery capacity decreases as the battery ages)
Battery Capacity
Batteries are often compared based on capacity - Amp hours (Ah).
However, a comparison based on capacity alone does not properly depict a battery since
the performance of a battery pack is also based on battery voltage (V). The best way to
compare battery performance is by looking at the amount of energy that can be used in
watt-hours (Wh). Wh take into account both the capacity of the battery, as well as the
average voltage during discharge. Simply put, the higher the V/Ah, the higher Wh range!
Wh calculation ex: 48 V x 13 Ah = 624 Wh
