Nowadays, more and more people use electric bicycles as a means of transportation. So, how to maintain the battery, the power source of electric bicycles, has five suggestions from relevant experts:

1. Don't lose electricity and storage. The lack of electricity means that the battery is not charged in time after use, and it is prone to sulfation. Lead sulfate crystals are attached to the electrode plate, blocking the ion channel, causing insufficient charging and reducing battery capacity. The longer the idle time in the power-deficient state, the more serious the battery is damaged. When the battery is not in use, it should be recharged once a month, which can prolong the service life of the battery.

2. It is necessary to check regularly during use. If the continuous mileage of the electric bicycle suddenly drops more than ten kilometers in a short time, it is very likely that at least one battery in the battery pack has broken grids, softened plates, and activated plates. Short-circuit phenomena such as material shedding. At this time, you should go to a professional battery repair organization for inspection, repair or assembly in time.

3. Do not discharge high current When starting, carrying people, or going uphill, it is best to use pedals to assist the electric bicycle to avoid instantaneous high current discharge. High-current discharge can easily lead to the crystallization of lead sulfate, thereby damaging the physical properties of the battery plate.

 4. Master the charging time. Generally, the battery is charged at night, and the average charging time is about 8 hours. If it is a shallow discharge (the mileage is short after charging), the battery will be fully charged soon, and overcharge will occur if the battery continues to charge, which will cause the battery to lose water and heat, and reduce the battery life. Therefore, it is best to charge the battery once when the depth of discharge is 60%-70%. In actual use, it can be converted into riding mileage, and necessary charging is carried out according to the actual situation to avoid harmful charging.

　　 5. Prevent high-temperature exposure Electric vehicles are strictly prohibited from being exposed to sunlight. An over-temperature environment will increase the internal pressure of the battery and the battery pressure limiting valve will be forced to open automatically. The direct consequence is to increase the battery's water loss. Excessive battery loss will inevitably lead to a decrease in battery activity, accelerate the softening of the plate, and the shell during charging. Fatal injuries such as body heat, bulging of the shell, deformation, etc.
