I want to buy a second battery for my new bike it has a 30amp hour 52volt now, I want to buy an eqel or better not worried about range at this point. I want to have a battery that will feed the dual 1200 watt motors supposedly rated at 4,000 watts what ever that means, I want to buy a second battery that is equal or maybe even larger. I can buy the same as my stock from the manufacturer but crazy expensive I have found batterys on ebay of the same size or bigger for a lot less money. They appear to look like they would just go right on my mount but I'll have to look more into that. I just want to know if all 30ah 52 volts are the same as far as bing able to dump enough power to get max performance out of these motors
Batteries are not all the same. The cheaper the batter, you can beat the cells are cheap and will not perform like you better battery. You will need a dual battery port. 1200w continues and 4000w peak.
Doesn't really work for a surron. 72v 40ah =144 miles. It can only go about 35 miles on sport or 55 on eco What does the 20 signify? Didn't really explain that other than "use 20, that's what the experts say"
That is a major component! How much someone weighs and how much weight they are carrying (at least for our ebikes with alot of campers and hunters and packers using them)
No, there is a lot more to it than that. Are you riding up hills? What sort of terrain, paved, gravel, sand? Is there a head wind? Is it cold out? Are you pushing hard or riding casually? All of that factors in. However having said that you can do a couple rides and get a sense for your range, even without riding to zero charge, by keeping track of the starting and ending voltages (some ebikes give the option to display voltage, which is far more accurate than a percentage estimate). Knowing the starting and ending voltages allow you to determine the power consumption rate in Watt-hours/mile. If your bike has different Pedal Assist Levels, you will have different consumption rates per level. Once you know your average consumption rate, and the size of your battery, you can reasonably guesstimate your maximum range.
What are your most asked questions about eBike batteries?
I just wish I saw your video before buying my Dong c electric bike.

For kilometers you can divide by 13
That's good to know! Thank you

Correct. Only applys to our battery combination with our controller and shifting capabilities.
Bottom line all depends on riders weight!!
