Precautions For Using Electric Vehicles

In modern travel, besides subway and public transportation, a large proportion of people choose to ride electric bikes. So, have you ever understood how to use electric bikes correctly?

1. The use of different road conditions
Electric bicycles are not suitable for driving on poor road conditions or steep roads. If we go uphill a lot on the way to work, we will find that charging once will result in much less mileage than on flat roads.
Countermeasure: When starting, climbing, carrying heavy loads, or driving against the wind, please use manual assistance to ride, which can ensure the battery and motor of your vehicle and extend its service life.
2. Load bearing capacity
In real life, many consumers prefer to use electric bicycles to carry heavy objects or people. Although this brings great convenience to consumers, in addition to bringing you unsafe factors, it also has a significant impact on the lifespan of electric bicycles.
Countermeasure: Generally, 48v12AH electric vehicles are equipped with ordinary small items or have little impact on children. If you need to carry heavy objects or adults, it is recommended to use larger electric vehicles.
3. Zero start
The so-called "zero start" refers to direct electric starting when stationary. On the surface, this may seem convenient, but in reality, it can cause serious damage to electric vehicles, especially the battery. This is because when stationary, the starting current is high, energy consumption is high, and the battery is easily damaged.
Countermeasure: Try to avoid zero start as much as possible. It is best to use manual assistance before starting, and then gradually accelerate with electricity. Some products may have designs for slow start or current limitation, mainly to protect the battery and motor. When purchasing, you can choose an electric bicycle with a slow start function.

4. Rainwater
Avoid excessive sun exposure and rain. Cycling can still be done in rainy and snowy weather, and the driving speed should be appropriately reduced. When braking, pay attention to increasing the braking distance to prevent slipping and turning, etc., in order to avoid endangering personal safety. Although electric bicycles have good waterproof performance, when passing through water pools, accumulated water, and other places, it is important to note that the wading height should not be higher than the wheel hub to prevent damage to the motor caused by water ingress; Do not rinse with high-pressure water column during normal times to avoid damage to electronic components and wiring caused by water immersion.
Countermeasure: If a water immersion accident occurs accidentally, please immediately turn off the power, remove the battery, and go to the specialty store for maintenance as soon as possible. Before maintenance, never use electric drive again.
5. Frequent braking
Frequent braking inevitably accompanies frequent starting, which can lead to frequent high current discharge of the battery, and power outages have a negative impact on its lifespan.
Countermeasure: Pay attention to safety while driving, move forward at an appropriate speed, and try to avoid frequent braking.
6. Smoothness of tire pressure and wheel rotation
"Tire pressure" is actually what we commonly refer to as insufficient inflation. Although these two factors may seem insignificant, a lack of sufficient air in the tires will increase the resistance of the electric vehicle to move forward, which will force the motor to output more power and consume limited electricity in vain.
Countermeasure: Before each ride, check if the tires are full and if the wheels rotate smoothly. A small inspection can make your car operate more easily.
7. Work diligently as a "little nurse" for electric vehicles
In addition to normal usage, daily maintenance and upkeep are also important. Good daily maintenance and upkeep will help extend the service life of electric vehicles. For example, regularly carrying out surface dust removal and cleaning work, regularly adding lubricants to the front and rear axles, chains, flywheels, and brake lines, and regularly hiring a professional maintenance center for maintenance, etc.
