NOTE:
The amount of time it takes for the lights to change
varies considerably from one ride to the next due to:
Rider weight, tire pressure, terrain, wind speed, wind
direction, temperature, road surface, gears used, etc.
It is advisable to return home before the third LED
lights up. Keep track of the time it takes for you to
complete various rides. After many rides you will have
a better understanding of how the lights relate to
battery run time.
