How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter Battery voltage (V), Battery capacity (Ah), and Assist level (0-3).
  2. Set Terrain (0-3), Rider weight (lbs), and E-bike weight (lbs).
  3. Review the Estimated range (miles) result.
  4. Use Estimated range (km) and Battery energy (Wh) to inform your decision.

What each input means

Battery voltage (V)
Battery pack voltage (common: 36V, 48V, 52V).
Battery capacity (Ah)
Battery capacity in amp-hours.
Assist level (0-3)
0 = Eco, 1 = Standard, 2 = High, 3 = Turbo.
Terrain (0-3)
0 = Flat, 1 = Rolling hills, 2 = Hilly, 3 = Mountainous.
Rider weight (lbs)
Rider body weight in pounds.
E-bike weight (lbs)
Weight of the e-bike itself in pounds.

What each result means

Estimated range (miles)
Estimated range on a full charge at your settings.
Estimated range (km)
Estimated range in kilometers.
Battery energy (Wh)
Total battery energy in watt-hours (V × Ah).
Ride time (hours)
Estimated riding time based on average assist speed.
Consumption (Wh/mile)
Energy consumed per mile at your settings.
Cost per charge ($)
Electricity cost per full charge at US average rate ($0.14/kWh).
Cost per mile ($)
Electricity cost per mile traveled.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Battery voltage (V) = 48, Battery capacity (Ah) = 14, Assist level (0-3) = 1, Terrain (0-3) = 0 = 6 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Estimated range
    Estimated range = usableWh / consumptionPerMile
    42.1 = 42.1
  3. Calculate Estimated range
    Estimated range = rangeMiles * 1.60934
    67.8 = 67.8
  4. Calculate Battery energy
    Battery energy = batteryVoltage * batteryAh
    672 = 672
