An electric bike has two main components – the motor and the battery. The size of the motor depends on the size of the battery. A battery having more than fifteen Ah can be charged up to three times and a battery having more than thirty Ah can be charged up to four times. The capacity of a battery is determined by its weight and thickness.
An amp hour is the standard unit of measurement for measuring the power of an electric bike battery, it is also referred to as the horse power. An amp hour can store one watt of electrical current. Whichever is smaller than this is considered as zero amps and the battery can perform properly. Some batteries are measured in milliamps (mmps), which is equal to the sum of the amperes per minute and the pulse width. Higher rating usually means higher pulse width.
The capacity of the electric bike batteries will decrease overtime, as the charge cycle becomes longer. It is recommended that you regularly top off your charge cycles at least once every three days. You should also make sure you discharge your charge cycles completely. It is recommended that you take care when driving and avoid sudden acceleration and deceleration, always ride safe. And if you’re not sure, do not attempt to charge your electric bike batteries unless you are an electric bike mechanic.
