Capacity test?

[Russell]

Is there anyway to test the capacity of the Bosch battery? I've more or less done 2000 miles now and I think it may be running out slightly earlier than when new.

bike shop can provide a print out for you

Some info there but not a measurement of total capacity

The only way to get an accurate capacity is to do a full charge and discharge cycle against a known, representative load (I.e. a 1/2C discharge over 2hrs). I doubt most (or even any) LBS have the kit needed to do that given the onboard BMS almost certainly prevents discharging against dummy loads off the bike like heater elements or lamps.

Is there anywhere that re cells the batteries? They may have a rig

Not worth it as the cost will be (at least) half way to a new battery - better to just get a new or slightly used one and have done with it.
