An adapted bicycle with pedal support needs to be charged regularly. But what is good for the battery? Should a Van Raam e-bike always be charged, or only when the battery is almost empty? We'll give you an answer to that in this article!
You can charge your electric bike between uses, so you can always put your electric bike on the charger. You don't have to wait to charge it until the battery is almost empty. However, it is important that you recharge an empty battery as soon as possible.
When the battery is fully charged, you don't necessarily have to disconnect the charger from the battery. Your electric bike can stay on the charger. Van Raam's chargers are designed to switch off when the battery is full. Are you planning on not using the battery for a while? Make sure you store the battery in a dry and cool place.

Only use the Van Raam battery and charger supplied with your bike.
