As gas prices rise across the globe, so does the interest in electric bicycles and other Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs). These LEVs are perfect for those who are tired of sitting in traffic or being cramped into crowded public transportation. But like any major purchase, it's worth doing right. Here are three things you should keep in mind before making your purchase.

These bikes do have batteries, NiMH or lithium ion batterty stocks ion, which have to be charged. The average bike will run for at least three hours on a full charge. While at work or anywhere with electric plugs, the battery can be topped off. The range is about 20 to 30 miles, just perfect for a commuter. Some bikes also have integrated rear racks so it's even possible to get the grocery shopping done on a bike.

Only charge your battery when it needs it. After a full charge, use as much of it's capacity as you can before giving it another charge or swap in a spare battery. Also don't use the charger as a radio stand and leave your fully charged battery in cobalt ontario canada there for repeated extended periods of time. This will shorten your battery life.

One final consideration with RC gas planes converted to electric. You always need to factor in cooling of the battery pack and esc. In fact many modelers, including myself, put the ESC on the outside of the plane, usually I mount it under the engine on the firewall. You also need to make air vents to cool the battery inside the model. Without this, you run the risk of overheating batteries and ESC's.
