Tips on charging
Slow down
Driving slower will conserve energy used from your battery. The faster you drive, the quicker you’ll run down your charge. Over time, taking your time and keeping off the throttle will increase your battery life.
Don’t charge to the max
With lithium-ion batteries, it’s best to charge to around 80% rather than to a full charge. Not charging fully allows space for regenerative braking to convert kinetic energy into usable energy if there’s enough space in your battery.
Keep it cool
When mooring on a hot day, find a shady spot where possible because batteries hate extreme heat! This will prevent your battery from overheating and draining your charge. Plus, put your battery on charge while it’s mooring to keep it from draining.
Plan your journey
If driving beyond your charge capacity, search ahead of time for available AQUA charging stations. To locate charging stations, go to the AQUA App.
Avoid deep discharging
If you let your battery discharge completely before recharging, it can reduce overall battery life. It is best to plan to recharge at 30%.
