Charging your battery

You can charge your battery any time, whether it is fully discharged or not. To 
use your charger, make sure the 110/220V switch on the back of your charger 
has been set correctly and then connect it to your wall outlet and battery. The 
LED indicator light will show orange when charging and takes about 5 hours 
for a full charge. When the charger has stopped charging it will show a green 
light.

The charger must be already connected to the battery pack when it is turned 
on in order to initiate a charge cycle. If the charger light is already green when 
it is plugged into the battery, it will not turn orange and start charging.

Store your battery fully charged and with its switch off. A stored battery must 
be charged once every 6 months because the battery self-discharges over 
time. Allowing the battery to completely self-discharge causes permanent 
damage. 

 

Wet weather tip: If you have exposed connectors that do not need to be 
unplugged, 

 prevent wet weather from corroding the contacts and reduces the 

chance of them getting tugged apart while riding.
 

use silicone tape or heat shrink  to wrap around the connections.

Range and Speed

Using the supplied lithium battery, the eZee kit will provide a typical assisted 
range of 25 - 40 km. Under motor power only, the range is reduced to 15-20 km, 
while with judicious use it can stretched out to more than 50 km. 

The speed of the motor is such that it will easily maintain 32 km/hr on the flats 
in the 26” wheel size. The 700c wheel size is slightly faster. The 20” eZee motor 
has been wound for a higher RPM so that it will also achieve 32 kph. 

If the eZee kit is powered from a 48V battery pack, then the top speed will be 
increased by 30%, to just over 40 km/hr. Similarly, the speed can be reduced to 
about 20 km/hr by using a 24V battery. It is also possible to limit the speed to 
any particular value using the CycleAnalyst upgrade option.
