As soon as the winter, many people have found that the battery range of the e-bike is seriously reduced, the original can run 50 kilometers of the battery, and now run 30 kilometers on the insufficient power. If the outdoor temperature is above or below zero degrees Celsius, it is possible to run half of the mileage shows no power. Industry insiders Wu Bin reminded, pay attention to some anti-freezing tips, can be appropriate to extend the battery range.

Cold leads to a decline in battery activity

According to reports, the current e-bike battery is mainly lead-acid batteries, accounting for more than eighty percent of the market, lead-acid batteries are more sensitive to changes in temperature, usually a drop in temperature, the battery’s activity decreases so that the resistance will increase, the resistance increases the capacity will be reduced, the battery capacity, once reduced, the ability to storage of electricity will decline, the range will be reduced, the result will be the battery will not be able to run far away from the situation.

Give the battery to do a good job of keeping warm

Professionals remind, want to extend the battery range, pay attention to the battery to do a good job of “keep warm”. Charging, try to make the surrounding environment a little warmer, such as underground garage charging, if there are no conditions, only in the open air charging, then choose around noon when the sun is most abundant. In addition, winter to increase the number of battery charging, in general, when the battery of the e-bike is still 30% of the remaining power or when there are still two cells of electricity left to consider charging. Float charge for one to two hours after the charger jumps the green light.

Keep the battery dry

To extend the battery range, keep the battery dry at all times. If the battery becomes wet or frosty due to rain or snow problems, a short circuit may occur. In this case, before charging the battery charging port and the battery on the water to dry, dry for a period of time or blow with a hair dryer, and so dry before charging.

Professionals suggest that sudden acceleration or harsh braking not only consumes electricity, but also prone to traffic accidents. If you can keep driving at a constant speed, then it will save more electricity.
