My battery seems to have a very short range.
My setup
- The battery is 520Wh, 52v, 10Ah. It's a shark form factor.
- It is paired to my Tongsheng TSDZ2 mid drive engine, factory firmware, on my recumbent bike - I always ride it with max assistance.
Symptoms
- I did a test ride of 15 miles. The engine cut out at 4 miles, and again at about 12 miles. I would expect a range of 20-30 miles before cutting out. I think it is cutting out automatically to stop it draining too low.
- When fully charged, the display always indicates only 1 bar of charge.
- At the same time, the battery itself shows a good charge: 1 red and 3 green LEDs.
- Performance is good. I can go up 20% slopes. The Rohloff Speedhub is amazing.
I want to know if the battery is faulty, & if so what I can do about it. I have a decent range of tools and a heap of time. Hopefully this post is as concise and easy to read as I can make it.
