You should always read the owner’s manual supplied with your electric ebike, but here's some extra tips we've picked up while working with ebikes.

How do I keep my battery in tip top shape?

• Only use the charger that was supplied with your ebike to charge your battery.
• Store ebike, batteries, and charger in a dry place, out of the weather. Only operate the charger in a dry place.
• Shock, vibration, high heat, sub freezing temperatures, water, high humidity, crushing, punctures, are all bad for batteries. Do what you can to prevent the exposure of your battery to such.
• Our recommendation to get the most life from your battery is to charge your battery after every ride. If you're not going to be using the ebike for extended periods of time (months), you'll want to store the battery 30 to 60% full.
