Using it this way, the battery life will last longer and the vehicle will be more durable

For many electric bicycle users, the range of travel and the lifespan of the vehicle are the most important concerns. In fact, apart from the hardware configuration of the vehicle itself, correct usage habits can also significantly enhance the range and extend the lifespan of the vehicle. Today, we will share several practical tips for using electric bicycles with you, making your beloved bike "more powerful and longer-lasting".

Tip 1: Control the speed reasonably and avoid sudden acceleration and braking. The range of an electric bicycle is closely related to the driving speed. The faster the speed, the greater the power consumption of the motor, and the shorter the range. During daily rides, it is recommended to maintain a constant speed and keep the speed at around 20 km/h. This can not only ensure travel efficiency but also effectively save electricity. At the same time, avoid frequent sudden acceleration and braking. When starting the vehicle, you can slowly turn the handlebar to allow the motor to start smoothly; when braking, anticipate the situation in advance and brake slowly, which can not only save electricity but also reduce the wear and tear of the brake pads and tires. 

Technique 2: Proper charging to protect the battery "heart". The battery is the core component of an electric bicycle, and its lifespan directly affects the usage cost of the vehicle. When charging, follow the principle of "light charging and light discharging", and do not wait until the battery is completely drained before charging. When the remaining battery power is 20%-30%, it can be charged. This can reduce the deep discharge of the battery and extend its lifespan. At the same time, use the original charger. Chargers of different brands and models have different parameters, and using mixed chargers may cause overcharging, overheating, and even safety accidents. The charging time should not be too long. Generally, after being fully charged, a float charge of 1-2 hours can be performed. Do not charge for a long time, especially at night. Choose a well-ventilated environment when charging to avoid fire hazards. In addition, pay attention to the temperature of the charging environment. Do not charge in high-temperature or low-temperature environments. High temperatures will accelerate battery aging, while low temperatures will reduce charging efficiency. 

Technique 3: Regular inspection and maintenance, promptly resolving minor faults. During daily use, it is necessary to develop the habit of regularly checking the vehicle. Before each ride, you can check if the tire pressure is sufficient. Insufficient tire pressure will increase the vehicle's driving resistance, leading to increased power consumption and also affecting the lifespan of the tires. Check if the braking system is sensitive, and if the travel distance of the brake handle is normal. If you find that the brakes are not sensitive, you should promptly adjust or replace the brake pads. Check if the transmission components such as the chain and flywheel are loose or making abnormal noises. Regularly apply lubricating oil to the transmission components to reduce wear. Additionally, pay attention to the storage environment of the vehicle. Avoid long-term outdoor storage to prevent rain soaking and sun exposure. When storing, you can park the vehicle in a dry and ventilated place. If it has not been used for a long time, charge the battery fully first, and then recharge once every 1-2 months to prevent the battery from running out of power and getting damaged. 

Mastering these practical usage tips will not only make the battery life of the electric bike more prolonged, but also effectively extend the vehicle's service life and reduce the usage cost. Hurry up and put these tips into practice, so that your beloved bike can accompany you for a longer time!
