Range - Qwic Premium I MN7+ Bedienungsanleitung

4.6. Range

The total distance that you can travel on a single battery charge is called
the range. The range depends on the capacity of the battery and the
energy consumption of the motor. The exact range of your bike is hard
to predict due to many variables that influence it. The average estimated
range that you can expect is displayed in below table:
Premium i Level 1
400 Wh 70 - 140 km
540 Wh 90 - 180 km
bell Our tests have been carried out on flat terrain, at temperatures of
approximately 20 0C, at an average speed of 20 km/h with a driver
having a weight of approximately 75 kg.
If you are experiencing reduced range compared to the values above
keep the following in mind:
Power level and own input
The higher the power level, the more support the bike gives you, the
more energy you are using, and the lower your range will be. Next to
that your own input can increase or decrease your overall range. Even 2
people with the same bike in the same setting and comparable physical
features can have completely different ranges dependent on your own
input. In general; the lighter the biking seems to go, the less input you
provide, the more energy the system is using.
Stopping and starting
Traffic lights will decrease your range significantly. Accelerating the e-bike
from stillstand consumes a relatively large amount of energy and drains
the battery faster.
Level 3 Level 5
50 - 90 km 30 - 45 km
60 - 120 km 40 - 60 km
Single long journey vs multiple short journeys
From our experience, a single long journey will consume less energy
compared to multiple shorter trips due to the continuity of the trip.
Weight
The total mass on the bike decreases your range exponentially. For
example, adding 10 kg of groceries can result in a 10% decrease in range.
RPM/input
Your pedaling rate, or Rotations Per Minute (RPM) influences the range of
the battery. In general, a higher RPM results in more range, so remember
to switch into lower gears as much as possible when accelerating or
climbing a hill. Think of shifting down like in a car, where you would not be
able to drive away in a higher gearing.
Tire pressure
Tire pressure plays an important role in battery range. When driving an
e-bike, you will not notice that your tires slowly deflate as the motor will
compensate for this. However, deflated tires will greatly decrease your
range. You can find the minimum and maximum allowed tire pressure on
the sides of your tire and set the pressure according to your preference.
Remember to inflate your tires every two weeks.
Environmental influences
Cold temperatures have a noticeable effect on battery range. The battery
capacity is measured at around 25 °C and will (temporarily) decrease
when it is colder. At 0 °C a fully charged battery only holds 70% of its
maximum capacity and at -10 °C this can even drop to 50%. Take into
account that your battery might also shut down faster in winter.
