Range Formula:
From: | To: |
The electric scooter battery range is the maximum distance a scooter can travel on a single battery charge. It depends on the battery capacity and the scooter's energy consumption rate.
The calculator uses the range formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula divides the total energy available (capacity) by the energy used per distance (consumption) to estimate the maximum range.
Details: Knowing your scooter's range helps plan trips, avoid running out of battery, and compare different scooter models. Actual range may vary based on riding conditions.
Tips: Enter battery capacity in Wh (found in scooter specifications) and consumption in Wh/km (often provided by manufacturer or measured). Both values must be positive numbers.
Q1: Where can I find my scooter's battery capacity?
A: Check the scooter's specifications, usually listed in watt-hours (Wh) or amp-hours (Ah). If in Ah, multiply by voltage to get Wh.
Q2: How can I measure my scooter's actual consumption?
A: Fully charge the battery, ride a known distance, then note the percentage used. Calculate consumption as (battery capacity × percentage used) / distance.
Q3: What factors affect real-world range?
A: Rider weight, terrain, speed, temperature, tire pressure, and battery age all impact actual range.
Q4: Is higher consumption always bad?
A: Higher consumption may indicate more powerful acceleration or higher speeds. It's about balancing performance and range.
Q5: How accurate is this calculation?
A: It provides theoretical maximum range. Real-world range is typically 70-90% of calculated value depending on conditions.
