My last test conclusions were just confirmed. One can expect a steady milage of 30 kilometers in a warm weather. But I would not suggest discharging the battery as low as this, because at such a low level any instant surge of power required by the wheel causes the controller to immediately shut down and stop. Although it does not turn off instantaneously, an unprepared rider may lose balance as the wheel tries to pull up the pedals quite quickly. Once it has stopped, the EUC will refuse to go any further, even when you push it using handle, V5F tries to go down.
