9AH battery on Chinese vs European bike, What is the difference?

[tapash]

If we disregard the quality of other component for a little while, a Chinese bike with a 9AH battery and an European bike with 9Ah battery, what would be the difference in terms of milage on same terrain with similar pedal assist, riding the same person?

Similarly, in general 36V 9Ah battery and 24V 9ah battery, which would give more milage on similar terrain with similar pedal assist, riding the same person? Would there be any difference at all?

For two 36v batteries, it will be the same. A 24v one will go 2/3 as far.

With an Ansmann 36v 9Ah battery you get a 3 year warranty, with a Chinese battery you will be lucky to get more than one year.

What price peace of mind?

not much difference in performance.
You pay more for a European made battery because of higher labour cost and distribution system, the cells are probably from the same company (Samsung, Panasonic, Sony etc).
You also pay for the longer warranty if bought from a shop, usually 2 years instead of one year from many direct importers.
The cost of the batteries could be viewed as a service charge, a battery with 3 year warranty seems cheap if costing less than twice the price of the equivalent battery with just one year warranty.

Most seem to use Samsung Korean cells these days.
The LifePo4 cells are longer life but lower energy density.....I was shown a LifePo4 cell battery from a weather station that was 17 years old and still performing well,the manufacturer was Chinese.
I suspect that many of the European battery assemblers use Korean cells.
Unfortunately 'you cannot tell a book by its cover' these days....I am currently involved in buying auto tooling from China...nearly all the prestigious USA tooling manufacturers are now manufactured in China,virtually every bearing in every car in the world now comes from Hangzhou,every trolley jack in the world now comes out of Changshu....so I suspect there is probably not such a thing as a wholly manufactured European battery,but maybe others know better.
