1. What is a Scooter Performance Calculator?

Definition: This calculator estimates the range of an electric scooter based on its battery capacity and energy consumption rate.

Purpose: It helps scooter owners and potential buyers understand how far their scooter can travel on a single charge.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( R \) — Range (kilometers)
• \( P \) — Battery capacity (Watt-hours)
• \( E \) — Energy consumption (Watt-hours per kilometer)

Explanation: The battery capacity is divided by the energy consumption rate to determine how many kilometers the scooter can travel.

3. Importance of Range Calculation

Details: Knowing your scooter's range helps plan trips, avoid running out of power, and compare different scooter models.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the battery capacity in Watt-hours (Wh) and energy consumption rate (default 20 Wh/km). Both values must be > 0.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Where can I find my scooter's battery capacity?
A: Check the specifications in your user manual or on the manufacturer's website. It's often listed in Watt-hours (Wh) or Amp-hours (Ah).

Q2: What's a typical energy consumption rate?
A: Most electric scooters consume between 15-25 Wh/km, depending on factors like speed, rider weight, and terrain.

Q3: Why is my actual range different from the calculation?
A: Real-world range can vary due to factors like speed, rider weight, terrain, temperature, and tire pressure.

Q4: How can I improve my scooter's range?
A: Maintain proper tire pressure, ride at moderate speeds, avoid steep hills, and reduce unnecessary weight.

Q5: Does this include battery degradation?
A: No, this calculates ideal range. Older batteries may provide less range than their original capacity suggests.
