Below, you’ll see a few tips and tricks to help optimise
your new eBike battery’s performance and lifespan:
1. Never leave your battery flat. Doing so causes irre-
parable damage and drastically shortens its lifespan.
2. Store your battery with 50 - 80% charge. Charging
up to 100% is fine, but avoid storing it at 100% for an
extended period (i.e. longer than a month). If possi-
ble, also remove your battery from your bike during
storage.
3. Store your battery in a dry, cool place, out of direct
sunlight and at a temperature between 5 - 20°C (41
- 68°F). If you’re using your bike during warmer sum-
mer days, remove your battery when possible. Simi-
larly, if you keep your bike outside during the winter,
remove your battery if it’s freezing or snowing.
4. Our smart charger automatically detects when
your battery is fully charged and will then stop char-
ging. However, we recommend that you disconnect
the charger when the battery is fully charged and the
indicator light on the charger switches from red to
green. For safety reasons, we also advise that you do
not leave your battery charging whilst unattended.
5. Your LEKKER bike comes with the Bafang C11 dis-
play, which gives you an indication of your battery’s
remaining range. However, this number does not
factor in your weight, terrain, temperature and riding
style. For these reasons, it should only be used as
a
rough indication, not an absolute number.
