E-Bike Battery Care

Simple habits that help your battery last years, not months.

Why bother

Lithium batteries degrade fastest when left fully flat, fully charged for long periods, or stored somewhere very hot or cold.

How to check

  1. 1Avoid regularly running the battery down to zero
  2. 2Store around 40-60% charge if not riding for weeks
  3. 3Keep it somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sun
  4. 4Use only the charger supplied or approved for that battery
How often

Ongoing habit, checked whenever charging
