Depends on how big a battery you have. Let's work on 36V 15Ah, which is 540Wh from full to flat.

On relatively flat terrain, putting in no pedalling effort, you will probably consume 20 to 30Wh per mile, so range should be 18 to 27 miles. If you use less than full throttle you will go further. If your terrain is hilly, less far. Bigger battery - more range.

Ideally you don't want to run the battery flat regularly as that will shorten its life, so take 20% off those numbers to be kind to it.

Thanks mathewslack( are you mathewslackliner the fisherman?) Most days I am able to pedal with some assistance but on occasions because of health issues it would be good to rely on pedals.Round trip of about 10 mile.

No - two t's in my Matthew, and not that keen on fish!
