The Ah rating is the capacity of the battery, sort of like the size of the petrol tank. It does not affect the speed but does affect range. So a 10Ah battery will not run as long as a 15Ah but the latter will go no faster if they are both 36v.Tried out the charger and everything seems to work good. Thanks, was trying to figure out how to test electrical system before buying a battery.
Given the charger at 42v and 2Ah powered at 80+Watts. Motor drives at 4Km on display, so more Watts will give more speed. Hopefully a 36Volt-13Ah = 360Watts, battery will give more speed. 15km per hour would be ideal.
What would be a good priced battery on the market to suit.
36v x 13Ah = 468Wh, again a measure of capacity.
When buying a battery it's max ampage should best be the controller max ampage plus 25-50%. This will give less voltage sag under heavy load (uphill or max power setting), stress the battery less and so help extend it's useful life.
