One tip you should buy the pedal kit for this so when the battery dies you can bike home, and it’ll recharge the battery, you should buy it also to do the next review on that because no one has really gone into detail about the pedal kit, but I luv the vid amazing dirt roads to!!!

Hard cut off out of nowhere means that your battery ran out of juice quicker than the % meter thingy thought it had and the voltage was just too low. Common in lower temperatures.

@@EdwinOlding Yes you are correct I do believe the biggest reason for the Regen is to save the Brakes more then anything. I really don't believe the Regen gives back that much.

[@IlliniDog01]

I am amazed that it can take that much abuse and keep ticking. Really impressive. Kind of annoying that the bike shuts off before it reaches 0%. 6% should mean you can still keep going. Otherwise there should be a way to recalibrate the percentage so 0 corresponds to shutoff. Great video.

[@leetjohnson]

What I noticed on mine, was that depending on how hard you are throttling at the end, will greatly impact where it finally dies. I was able to get mine down to 0, but I was at a crawl and trying to get home....barely made it, at 0.

[@westsenkovec]

Battery sag. They don't drain linearly.

[@ownzies100]

You're not supposed to kill lithium batteries, it's probably a protective measure or battery sag. With older or not properly used batteries, internal cell resistance increases. This causes the voltage to "sag" a lot more when higher amperage is drawn. The voltage will drop under it's true value and slowly recover. This can push batteries below a safe voltage which would result in the bikes failsafe cutting off battery power.

[@davestevens4263]

I watched one video where it just shuts off at 3 or 5 % . That’s good to know . Your the only person that has mentioned the regen. Braking . I like that for all my hills here .

Thanks for the video! And it looks like you got a lot more, definitely subscribing. Btw, Tesla doesn't just die at 6%, it actually goes for a bit even after hitting 0%. It plans all the charging stops for you along the route you're going, giving you 10-20% buffer. Just follow the speed limits and it usually arrives at the next charger with even more battery than it was initially expecting. And at the rate they're installing chargers they might pass any time now the number of gas stations, at least in the US.

Which is preferable, the Sur Ron, or the Segway version? I like the idea of the Segway app to control the settings, rather than sequential button presses on the Sur Ron. However, i would still want the aftermarket part upgrades available for the Sur Ron. Though, the aftermarket parts should, in theory, work for both bikes since they are built the same.

[@Aderin.]

Probably the sur Ron in my opinion, an app is just unnecessary in my opinion

[@Tree_Cruiser]

Interested to hear about that 6% deal. Usually electric drive systems have an auto protection system built in, so that 6% should had ideally been like 30% of that batteries true capacity. If that's not the case, I wouldn't run that battery that low often and if you do I'd trickle charge it at least back up to 25% instead of giving it a regular charge from dead.

[@EdwinOlding]

Yeah in the future I wont take it down past 20% but I will be doing some research on this and posting my findings for sure!

[@MrDmadness]

The reason for power loss is that you used more in rush current than the bms allowed. Voltage is pressure, so less "pressure" means less power in in rush ( less head room ) if you start very light on throttle you likely could get to 1% the bms doesn't allow a lithium battery ever to get to actual 0% cause if they do the battery will never recharge .

[@iRollWithPunches]

@@MrDmadness I believe you would have to use a battery charger to 'wake up the battery.

[@ownzies100]

@@iRollWithPunches if you're talking about restoring dead lithium cells, once it drops below the safe voltage (3.0v for example on LiPo) you can technically restore the cell by trickle charging, but the internal resistance could be a lot higher and the battery may not hold a charge. Higher internal resistance means higher temperature too. I wouldnt want to risk a house fire.
