sidderke Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I haven't found an answer online nor in my search on this forum. So out of curiosity: If you had an electric scooter and a EUC with the same battery size, same rider, same conditions, same speed, same weight. Would there be a big difference in range or not? Would the EUC get noticeably more range because there is less traction because it's only one wheel? Thanks, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hatd to say as euc's have more normaly capacity, so it's hard to really compare. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..... Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) In my small collection, Euc wins. less rolling resistance and less weight. I have a scooter thats a bit larger in batt cap than my 18XL (2kw vs 1.5kw). The scooter is 2x1200w motors and the XL is 1x2000w motor. Itll outrun my XL in top speed for a moment, but no way in hell its coming close to the mileage per kw. It also loses a TON more speed on hills, tho rider input is easier on the scooter. The scooter is quite a bit heavier too. I could be wrong of course, as there are many variables I havent and can't isolate. I really dont think the gyro uses much and a rider that isnt on/off/on/off the power, does use battery in a fairly linear fashion. Again, just a petty guess, don't tear me apart if I'm wrong. Fwiw, I just took a 4hr tour of around 30miles of playful riding. My 18XL lost 30% battery.... Range anxiety... the struggle is no longer real!

GothamMike Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Sounds like someone needs to do a scientific experiment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
