After entering winter, the range of electric motorcycle will decrease. For example, electric motorcycle that were originally able to run 50 kilometers may only be able to run 30 kilometers in winter. So when charging electric motorcycle in winter, it is necessary to use some correct methods. So how should electric motorcycle be charged in winter?
The correct charging method for electric motorcycle in winter:
1. Extend the charging time. The charging time for electric motorcycle in winter can be slightly longer, mainly because charging is slower in winter. For example, in summer, it takes 6-8 hours to fully charge, while in winter it takes 8-10 hours to charge. After being fully charged, do not immediately unplug the power supply. You can continue to float charge for 1-2 hours. Proper float charging is beneficial for the battery and helps to charge more electricity.
2. Charge in a warm place. When charging electric motorcycle in winter, do not charge them directly in an outdoor environment. When the temperature is too low, the charging efficiency will be relatively low. It is best to charge it indoors or in sunlight when there is sunlight. This helps to increase the activity of the active substances inside the battery, which can improve charging efficiency and charge more batteries.
3. Increase the number of charging cycles appropriately. In summer, it is more suitable to start charging the battery of an electric vehicle when the remaining power is around 20%. However, in winter, the number of charging times can be increased appropriately, which means that the battery should start charging when the remaining power is between 30% and 40%.
4. Use the charger that comes with it. When charging electric motorcycle in winter, be sure to use a matching charger and avoid mixing chargers of different specifications, otherwise it may damage the battery.
