On my aurora I have the original battery( 10Amp li-ion) at the rear and my Chinese 15amp lipo4 in one of my front panniers. Anyway, today whilst out and about I was running on my lipo4 and reached down to switch over to the li-ion to give them both a run ready for a recharge. I thought I noticed a slight better power with the original battery
So! on a flat section of road near where I live with no wind to speak of today I did a both ways run on high power and just throttle.
Results= The li-ion original was 1mph faster over the measured distance although a slightly extended run saw the lipo4 catch up to the same max. I put that down to the fact that the lipo4 being at the front and being connected to the controller box via a 1mtr extended kettle type ext lead with the extra connections for my in line fuses + 4 actual kettle plugs (one on the small patch lead from the controller, one from the battery and one each end of the 1 mtr extension lead running down the bike and of course the lipo4 lands up at a lower voltage after charging.
Any Thoughts?
