Brilliant. Will do. !

Thanks Nealh. That makes sense now. Im only using it for short trips at mo but I think now I can ride longer at weekends with more confidence. Thanks very much.!

Top stuff!Thanks very much for all your help and advice. That was my next question actually. An ebike shop told me that I shouldnt top up the battery but to almost drain it. Im glad Ive got ypu guys with good advice. Ill do that. Now I can chill!

Thanks! You guys did mention that the LED is giving a false reading. I wont charge the battery today, and will measure again after tomorrow. At least I am reassured that its not gonna die on me. :-)

Hi Flecc and D8veh.. I did as you said. After charge battery before use was 29.34 v, and then after riding to and from work today where it now shows half full, it reads 28.24 v . I guess this means the LED is wrong and battery still has a high charge left?

Hi Flecc..Ill do that! Thanks very much. Seems straightforward. Ive it on charge now for tomorrow. I did notice last week that the led hadnt moved at all after riding to and from work so perhaps battery is just bedding in. We shall see.

Thanks. Ill google it and take it to work tomorrow.

Hi there Sorry for delay. Ive borrowed the voltmeter. Its an ISOTECH IDM97 RMS. If you could explain to me how to assess the battery Id be grateful. thanks

Will do. Ill get back to you. Thanks very much.

I have one at work. I will ask the tech to check it for me. Thanks. If no joy I'll buy the one in the link, thanks

Hi Flecc did you have the same problem as me exactly and you were confident that your bike wouldnt die? I am still looking for a shop/repairer who could service my motor as it was garaged and unused for 12 years. Although it worked straight away, the battery does concern me. The longer I use it...

Ill keep you posted. !

sorry I got a new charger with the recelled battery.

Thanks. I got it all recelled by Motorsavers in Corby. The chaps there seem decent and I wouldnt like to think they've put in reduced no of cells. At the moment the indicator shows 50% less after 3 miles. So Im not sure really what to do. I'll call them again tomorrow. thanks for your advice.

Thanks for this. Its reassuring to know that I can expect this. I just dont want to run out of juice on a long ride to have to push a 30kg or therabouts bike home! I'll try to use it at weekends close to home and see how far I get!
