Cold Weather and your Battery
Below 10 degrees Celsius, the battery will not work as well as it would in warmer
temperatures. While Lithium-Ion batteries perform better than Lead-Acid batteries in
temperature extremes, both will experience reduced performance in cold temperatures.
Also, repeatedly riding the e-bike in cold temperatures may cause your battery to have to
be replaced sooner.
Replacement and Disposal
After approximately 300 charges, a lead-acid battery will need to be replaced. A lithium-ion
battery will last approximately 1500 charges. When the battery has to be replaced, you will
notice that your battery cannot carry as much of a charge as it could initially.
Contact your local Daymak dealer to purchase a new battery.
When replacing your battery, dispose of it at a proper municipal battery recycling facility. If
none is available, please contact your local Daymak dealer.
Warning
Be absolutely sure that you replace the battery with an identical or
very similar battery. While it is possible to change the battery format or
power levels, this requires advanced knowledge of electrical systems.
If improperly done, this can result in immediate and irreparable
damage to the electronic controller and electrical systems. Be
absolutely certain of what you are doing before you replace the
battery with a different type of battery.
Using the wrong type of battery will also void your warranty.
