1. What is E-Scooter Range?

The range of an electric scooter refers to the distance it can travel on a single battery charge. It's determined by the battery capacity and the scooter's energy consumption rate.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the range formula:

Where:

• \( Capacity \) — Battery capacity in watt-hours (Wh)
• \( Consumption \) — Energy consumption in watt-hours per kilometer (Wh/km)

Explanation: The formula divides the total energy available (capacity) by the energy used per distance traveled (consumption) to estimate maximum range.

3. Importance of Range Calculation

Details: Knowing your e-scooter's range helps plan trips, avoid running out of battery, and compare different scooter models when purchasing.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter battery capacity in Wh (usually found in specifications) and consumption rate in Wh/km (from manufacturer specs or real-world measurements). All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What's a typical e-scooter range?
A: Most consumer e-scooters have ranges between 15-50 km, while high-end models can reach 80-100 km per charge.

Q2: How accurate is this calculation?
A: This provides a theoretical maximum range. Real-world range varies with rider weight, terrain, speed, temperature, and battery age.

Q3: Where can I find my scooter's consumption rate?
A: Check manufacturer specifications, user manual, or measure it by recording distance traveled and battery percentage used.

Q4: How can I increase my scooter's range?
A: Maintain proper tire pressure, ride at moderate speeds, avoid hills when possible, and reduce unnecessary weight.

Q5: Does cold weather affect range?
A: Yes, lithium batteries perform worse in cold temperatures, potentially reducing range by 20-30% in winter.
