In winter, the battery of electric bicycles is not durable? Come and learn 4 maintenance tips
In December, all places quickly entered the freezing mode, and the battery consumption of electric bikes was significantly accelerated. Why is this? As the temperature drops, regardless of the type of battery, the activity of various substances in the battery will decrease, and the storage capacity will also deteriorate. For example, when the temperature is around 25°C, the battery can store electricity normally and can discharge to the maximum; when the temperature is below 15 degrees Celsius, the battery's charging and storage capacity are only two-thirds or less of the normal ambient temperature.
Of course, in addition to the impact of temperature, some car owners' bad habits will also reduce the performance of the battery. Therefore, it is necessary to master some battery winter maintenance skills.
1.Charge in time
Timely charging The weather temperature drops sharply, and the battery of electric vehicles consumes electricity quickly. If you used to charge once every 30 kilometers, you should now charge at least once every 20 kilometers. Try to keep the battery power sufficient as much as possible, and never force it to ride without power.
2.Control electric bikes speed
Control the speed of the vehicle. Many users like to "speed" when riding, which requires the battery to release more power to support. Therefore, it is recommended that car owners should maintain a steady speed in cold temperatures and try to avoid sudden acceleration or sudden braking during riding.
3.Battery storage
Electric vehicles will slowly discharge even if they are not used. In cold weather, the battery discharge will be more serious. In winter, if the vehicle is parked in the open air for several days without use, the battery should be removed and stored in a place sheltered from wind and rain to prevent the battery from freezing and damage, or causing the battery to lose power.
4. Charging temperature
At low temperatures, charging should be slower because the battery needs to be "heated" to charge. When the battery cell is below a certain temperature, the system will first heat the battery cell, and when its temperature reaches above a certain temperature, it will start charging the battery. For non-battery-swapping car owners, it is recommended that the owner choose a relatively warm environment when charging the electric vehicle battery in winter.
In the face of the cold winter, be prepared to keep warm when riding, protect the vehicle, protect the battery, and protect yourself!
