Th
e cells used in the Freedom E-Bikes battery pack are sup-
plied fully charged and balanced and should not require
regular cell balancing if the following guidelines (“battery use
guidelines”) are followed:
• total load (bike, rider & luggage) does not exceed 105kg
with one battery pack or 120kg with two battery packs
wired in parallel.
• Th
e rider pedals with at least moderate eff ort whenever the
motor is engaged.
• Th
e motor is only engaged once the bike is moving.
• Battery packs are recharged immediately aft er use.
• Th
e rider ceases to use the battery (and either replaces or
recharges it) once it is discharged to the point where the
motor starts to cut out under load.
If battery packs are used outside of the above guidelines you
should perform cell balancing using the two white balancing
connectors on the battery pack
Occasional cell balancing will extend cell life and improve
performance.
Balancing Battery Packs
Th
e batteries can be balanced where necessary with a char-
ger balancer combination specifi cally designed to charge &
balance 12 LiFe A123 cells (eg. MegaPower Infi nity 960SR or
Hyperion EOS0610I Duo II-Dual Port).
