First of all, hi to everyone, I just registered here.
About myself I just clocked a year working for Vene Rides, a e-bike and e-kickscooter shop in Miami Beach and I was arguably the best Tech in the area because the others were very bad haha. Happy to help with issues to people around here and do some work if needed.
Having said that, there is a lot that I need to learn and this is one of the issues that I have at hand that puzzles me.
I have a Luna Banana with a Bafang BBSHD and ludicrous controller. This is fitted with a Wolf Pack V1.
I believe the battery to be a 52v, so the charger says.
Battery holds charge and charger, a 52v Luna mini charger works it magic and slowly but steadily charges the battery and it takes a few hours to do so.
Starting with an allegedly fully charged battery and showing this way on display, I can ride about 16 miles and then the display shuts off and is all pedal back home.
This is a too low range.
I have contacted Luna and although they reply pretty quickly, they do not provide much as in way of solutions.
Today I bench tested the Luna and monitored the info closely, as opposed to be on the road and looking at traffic, then bike shuts down and then pedal home which is not a great experience, although it is way better than on a super73.
Bench test shows that the battery goes from stated 100% charge to 76% charge and then dies and cannot be turned on. Motor temperature is reasonable, so this is not an issue of the system shutting itself down or so.
Voltage checked on battery immediately after system shuts down is 29.5v and oscillates a bit up and down.
I do not know how to interpret this apart from that the battery is dying, and if the only solution is to buy another one.
For anyone who knows more than me, please chip in.
Thanks!
