I am told in the manual that I need to condition my battery by using it all up and charging three times. Before today I did about ten miles and then today I did maybe six or seven and my battery ran out. This is alot less than the seventy five miles it is supposed to do. I live in a very hilly area and I weigh 16 stone so I was expecting to not get the full amount they say but what I am getting seems very low. The amount I am getting would not even get me into the city centre and back, it is only a twenty mile round trip.
Another issue I had was the lights were one solid light and one flashing according to the manual this indicates that there is 40% remaining. It went from that to only one light flashing, with no in between step from indicated 40% to less than 10%.
So my question is, Is the battery "conditioning" going to even things out and allow the battery to last longer and is the drop off from 40% to less than 10% normal or do you think there is a fault somewhere?
I am more than a little concerned so I am posting this here as there is no one at 50Cycles today.
