Tips to help electric bikes save energy
(Baonghean.vn)- To use an electric bike properly, you must have a firm grasp of the basic parameters, operating methods and correct vehicle usage procedures.
 |
In actual use, each charge of an electric bike can run about 30-40 km, the highest is 60 km for one charge. To achieve this, users need to pay attention to the following:
Start the car
For electric vehicles, you only need to start and turn the throttle to start the vehicle. However, starting is when the battery consumes the most. Therefore, to ensure battery life and save electricity, users should pedal a few times to gain momentum before increasing the throttle.
Always watch the power display panel
Just like the fuel gauge on a motorbike, an electric vehicle also has a display board that shows the remaining battery power to drive. This part is very important to let you know when the vehicle is running out of power and needs to be recharged.
Monitoring this amount of electricity not only helps the driver calculate the amount of electricity for the distance traveled, but also helps to be more proactive in charging.
In addition, a seemingly harmless factor that many people mistakenly believe is moving the vehicle many times when the remaining battery is very low... when moving like that, the battery or accumulator will be damaged, the ability to store electricity will be reduced.

Use synchronous charging with battery
Choosing the right charger and battery has a big impact on the battery life, so you must choose the right type and meet the specifications for each type.
Choosing the wrong one will reduce battery capacity, cause battery swelling or even explosion during charging.
For synchronous chargers, when testing parameters that do not meet or are outside the parameters on the table, problems such as choosing the wrong charger also occur.
Charge at the right time and in the right way
Do not charge the battery immediately after returning home even if the vehicle still has a lot of power left. This reduces the vehicle's battery's ability to store electricity.
Depending on the type of vehicle, the charging time is different, it can be from 8 - 10 hours, or longer than 10 - 12 hours; you should unplug the charger as soon as the battery or accumulator is full to make the product more durable.
One thing to note is that each electric vehicle has its own charger. Although some vehicles are designed to use each other’s chargers, it is not recommended because using the wrong charger will also affect the battery or accumulator and drain the battery very quickly.
When the charger is broken, you should buy a genuine car charger to ensure more safety during use.
Don't go too fast, don't adjust the speed
The speed of an electric bike cannot be as high as that of a motorbike; normally electric bikes are only recommended to go at 25 km/h, while electric motorbikes can only go at a maximum speed of 45 km/h. You should follow this and should not adjust the speed at the store to make the bike go faster.
This will cause the battery to work more and run out quickly. If used frequently, the battery will quickly wear out and break down. At that time, the car will go less and you will have to buy a new battery to replace it.
When the electric vehicle is in low voltage protection state, it must be charged before continuing to use, otherwise it will lead to over-discharge of the battery, affecting the performance and life of the battery.

No sudden braking
Sudden braking is extremely energy-consuming for the car. According to a study, frequent sudden braking can consume 40% of the electric energy. Not to mention sudden braking and then sudden acceleration, which consumes electricity even faster.
If you drive like this regularly, the battery life of your car will decrease rapidly and you will have to replace it with a new one soon.
Regular maintenance
The best way to use an electric vehicle is to have it serviced once a quarter. Service keeps everything running smoothly and does not affect the vehicle's performance.
Electric vehicles using batteries are more susceptible to failure; the battery pack usually consists of 4 small batteries connected together. If one of the 4 batteries is damaged, it will greatly affect the remaining batteries, causing them to fail quickly. If you suspect that the battery is damaged (can travel a shorter distance than before), you should have it checked and replaced, to avoid having to replace the entire pack, which will be very expensive.
How to handle when the car is at risk of running out of battery in the middle of the road: There will be times when you forget to charge or cannot calculate the distance traveled, and the remaining battery of the vehicle leads to the risk of the vehicle running out of battery in the middle of the road. In situations like this, the best way to get the most out of your trip and “get home” safely without having to walk is to go very slowly and keep a steady grip on the accelerator. Never speed up, brake suddenly, or change speed suddenly, as this will drain your battery very quickly. “Slow and steady” - this tip will save you from having to walk your phone because you forgot to charge it. |
