To get the most out of your , it is important to understand how it works. This is especially true for powerful machines of the "hyper-scooter" class.

We'll break down complex terms (V, Ah, Wh) in simple language and explain how they affect your ride.

1. Basics: Volts, Amps, and Watts (Water Analogy)

To understand basic electrical characteristics, imagine a water pipe:

• Volts (V, Voltage): This is the "pressure" of the water in the pipe.
  • What this means for you: Voltage determines the potential top speed. High-voltage systems (e.g. 72V in ) allow speeds of up to 105 km/h, while city models usually operate on 48V or 52V.
• Amperes (A, Current): This is the "flow rate" of water through the pipe.
  • What this means for you: Current determines acceleration and torque (thrust). Wolf King GTR controllers can deliver up to 160A of peak current, providing instant acceleration and the ability to climb grades up to 50°.
• Watts (W, Power): This is the total amount of energy flow (Volts × Amps = Watts).
  • What this means for you: The Wolf King GTR has two motors with 2000W of rated power (4000W total), and the peak power of the entire system reaches an impressive 13440W.

2. Battery Capacity: Watt-hours (Wh) are more important than Amp-hours (Ah)

Don't just look at Amp-hours (Ah). The universal measure of capacity is Watt-hours (Wh) . This is your real "fuel tank".

• Capacity formula: Voltage (V) × Ampere-hours (Ah) = Watt-hours (Wh).

Example based on the Wolf King GTR series (uses high-quality Samsung or LG 21700 cells):

• Wolf King GTR: 72V and 35Ah = 2520 Wh .
• Wolf King GTR MAX: 72V and 40Ah = 2880 Wh .

The MAX model has a larger battery and will provide more range. Always compare Watt-hours (Wh).

3. Removable (Portable) vs. Static Batteries

Modern scooters offer different types of battery designs, as seen in the GTR series:

• Removable (Portable) Batteries (For example, GTR 35Ah):
  • Advantages: Huge convenience. You can leave the scooter (63 kg) in the garage or hallway, and take the battery home or to the office to charge. Also simplifies winter storage of the battery in a warm place.
  • Disadvantages: Slightly lower maximum capacity due to the need for a separate housing and connectors.
• Static (Built-in) Batteries (For example, GTR MAX):
  • Advantages: Allows for maximum capacity (40Ah), better tightness of the deck.
  • Disadvantages: The scooter needs to be charged near an outlet. It is difficult to bring the heavy vehicle (67 kg) into the apartment.

4. How to Understand Range (Traveling Range)

Manufacturers indicate an optimistic range (up to 180-200 km). How to calculate the real range?

• Range formula: Capacity (Wh) / Energy consumption (Wh/km) = Range (km).

Example for Wolf King GTR (2520 Wh):

• Economical driving (30-40 km/h, ~30 Wh/km): 2520 / 30 ≈ 84 km.
• Aggressive driving (70+ km/h or off-road, ~60 Wh/km): 2520 / 60 ≈ 42 km.

Driving style can double or more your trip distance!

5. Factors Affecting Power Reserve

1. Speed ​​(Air Resistance): The biggest enemy. Air resistance increases quadratically . Increasing speed from 30 km/h to 60 km/h requires not twice as much energy, but about 3-4 times as much!
2. Driving style (Hard acceleration): Every hard start is a peak current consumption.
3. Terrain, Rider Weight and Temperature.

6. Optimal Ride and Efficiency

• Soft start: Use the capabilities of sine controllers for smooth gas dosing.
• Recuperation (EABS): Use electronic brake (EABS) which returns some of the energy to the battery.

The ability to drive properly not only saves battery power, but also saves lives. We recommend that you read our article: .

Why ESP (Traction Control) is Economy and Safety Traction control systems (ESP) prevent wheel spin during a sharp start. This is critically important with a power of over 13000W. This not only prevents falls, but also saves charge, because energy is not wasted.

7. How to Charge to Save Battery

• 80/20 Rule: For daily commutes, keep the charge between 20% and 80-90%.
• When to charge to 100%: Only before a long trip or once every 1-2 months for balancing.
• Avoid deep discharge (0%).
• Temperature: Do not charge an overheated or frozen battery.
• Fast charging: GTR models support fast charging (3.5 - 4 hours). This is convenient, but for battery longevity it is better to use standard chargers more often (8-10 hours), and leave the fast charger for cases when it is necessary.

8. The Difference Between Urban and Power Scooters

• City scooters: Ideal for short distances and flat terrain.
• Hyper-scooters: Ideal for long distances, hills, off-road. Provides maximum comfort and safety at high speeds.
