While storing batteries in cool conditions is good, always remember to warm the
battery to room temperature before charging, charging from frozen can damage
the battery.
4. Is it normal that the battery and/or battery charger gets warm
when recharging?
Yes, it is normal that the battery will become warm to the touch during the recharg-
ing process. This is because of the pack’s internal resistance and losses in energy
conversion efficiency from electric energy to chemical energy.
5.How many cycles will the battery last?
The Lithium-Ion battery included with your e-bike is comprised of high quality
Samsung 18650 cells wich are rated to last more than 800 cycles. Aggressive
riding, poor battery maintenance, and improper storage can lead to shorter lifes-
pans. A full cycle is considered one complete discharge, so if you only discharge the
battery halfway before recharging normally, your battery will last for twice as many
as charge cycles. To ensure you get the most life out of your battery please follow
these guidelines.
6.Does my battery have a “memory”?
No, Li-Ion batteries do not have any memory. Partial discharge/charge cycles will
not harm the battery’s capacity or performance.
It is OK to charge the battery as often as is convenient.
7.Charging
Be sure to read any documentation included with the battery charger, or printed on
the charger itself.
After a ride, fully recharge your battery as soon as it has cooled to room tempera-
ture. A lithium-ion battery left in a discharged condition will deteriorate much faster
than a fully charged battery.
The battery charger supplied with this battery is for INDOOR use only.
Avoid any contact with water or other fluids while charging the battery. If the bat-
tery, charger or any connections become wet, immediately unplug the charger and
thoroughly dry all components prior to charging the battery.
