Hi folks,

For those of you who don't recall, I bought a Lithium-Ion 10Ah battery from BMS a couple of months ago I think, been using it daily since then..

I have just noticed over the last 2 weeks, the battery seems to have gotten more powerful! I haven't been using it as much (using alternate days and not at all for 3 days in a row) so I'm wondering if that is why, or whether it's just a common feature of Lithium-Ion batteries?

I have just noticed the bike has suddenly got noticeably faster, I'm pushing above 31km/hr (19mph) on the flat without much effort.

Hi

Yes that is correct

After 5 full discharge charge cycles i have had the range Double

This is Because there are 26 cells in the pack and they now all have the same voltage and charge capacity

I think the weather has also warmed up a little recently. Be prepared for some reduction in range during the colder months.

I think you need to get someone to put a battery in and not tell you which one is in, then do your test ride followed by a ride using the other battery and see what you think. Cars always drive better when you have washed them and polished them ???

That's true!?!
My Ebike always rides and goes better after a wash and lube!
That reminds me it needs doing now.
