If I partially recharge my battery, does this counts as one cycle?

A Cycle represents a complete charge and not a partial one.
Let's take 2 examples :
  • If you recharge 3 times a third of the capacity, the total meaning 100% of the battery capacity, it will count for 1 cycle,
  • If you recharge at 40% of the capacity, this will count for the next cycle and will not count for 1 cycle. In fact, the cycle will be reached when you will recharge for a capacity value of 100%.
1500 cycles represent 1500 times you charge at a value of 100% of battery capacity and not 1500 times a partial charge.

Does the Battery get recharged while braking or when descending?

No, this feature does not show a real performance (less than 0.5%) and, paradoxically, this requires a consumption to be managed.

In other words, in order to generate enough power, our e-bike will brake very hardly, thus compromising your safety.

The Veloscoot SAP2 will give you much better performance to manage the battery consumption.

I bought an electric bike from another brand. Can I buy from Veloscoot a spare battery?

Unfornately, it is not possible.
We cannot know if our batery could be compatible with your electri bike. More important, for safety reasons, we advise to NOT use a battery which is not stricly recommended by manufacturer. It could be dangerous and jeopardize your e-bike as well as your self.
