100 mW
I have a 36V 15,500mAh, 561wh pack. I use about 600mAh per mile mountain biking. So I figure my max range is about 26 miles. A friend has the same motor on his bike and all he knows about his battery pack is that it is a 48v 672wh pack. We're trying to figure out what his range should be with all other variables held constant as in if I put his pack on my bike. If I'm doing the math right, I think his pack would be a 14,000mAh pack (672wh/48v=14A). Would it be accurate to simply divide 14,000 by 600 to get 23 miles? I'm not sure how the higher V of his pack plays into calculating range. I know that normally a higher V allows you to spin the motor faster. I'm guessing with a higher V you need less A to go the same distance. So I think my simplistic calculation of 23 miles may be wrong.
