I can compare directly my Proconnect to my hub powered Peugeot. Local terrain to me is hilly, over a 26~28mile ride the Peugeot will use about 12Wh / mile for an average speed of 15mph, raise the average to 17mph and it uses 14Wh or thereabouts.
On the runs I've made so far with the Proconnect over similar terrain they have averaged 15mph, the first was 8.2Wh and the second approx 7~7.5 Wh / mile. I can't be 100% sure the figures for the Proconnect are spot on as I'm taking the theoretical Wh of the battery and using the crude 5 segment battery display to work out the use. Even so given the possible error of the display the Proconnect is at worst about 7.5~8Wh.
I can get down to about 8~9Wh on the Peugeot with a lot more rider input, however, average speed drops to 12~13mph or less over the same terrain and distance.
Edit: Also I'm assuming as the Panasonic battery is new its at or close too 100% capacity. I can measure the Wh used directly on the Peugeot regardless of capacity.
