Range Formula:
From: | To: |
The Electric Scooter Range Calculator estimates how far your scooter can travel on a single charge based on battery capacity and energy consumption rate. This helps in trip planning and understanding your scooter's performance.
The calculator uses the range formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula divides the total energy storage by the energy used per distance to determine maximum range.
Details: Knowing your scooter's range helps prevent being stranded with a dead battery, allows for better trip planning, and helps compare different scooter models.
Tips: Enter battery capacity in Wh and consumption rate in Wh/km. Both values must be positive numbers. For accurate results, use manufacturer specifications or measured values.
Q1: Where can I find my scooter's battery capacity?
A: Check the manufacturer's specifications, battery label, or user manual. It's typically listed in watt-hours (Wh) or amp-hours (Ah).
Q2: How can I measure actual consumption?
A: Fully charge your scooter, ride a known distance (like 10km), then note how much energy was used (if your display shows this) or recharge and measure the energy input.
Q3: What affects real-world range?
A: Rider weight, terrain, speed, wind, temperature, tire pressure, and battery age all significantly impact actual range.
Q4: What's a typical consumption rate?
A: Most scooters consume 10-25 Wh/km. Smaller/lighter scooters are at the lower end, while powerful dual-motor models consume more.
Q5: How can I increase my scooter's range?
A: Maintain proper tire pressure, ride at moderate speeds, avoid frequent acceleration/braking, and reduce carried weight.
