That is correct and how both the new and old range extenders operate. Once you have used up the range extender there is usually about 10% of your main battery left. Need to be pretty close to your destination at this point.
~ 25-30 miles on typical mountain single track with 5-6K' of elevation gain, using level 3 to level 5 assist as needed. Not trying to extend range at all with average assist at level 4. I am 100 kgs riding weight.
Average ride length: 20 miles/3000'/100kg ride weight/2.5 hrs
Battery size: 800wh
Battery used ~ 40-60%
Predominantly ride in sport mode with occasional use of power mode for steep, techy climbs. Use active mode for transfer sections of 2 track.

The Hope cranks are great and really easy to install and come with everything. They are spendy compared to some brands but are still very nice. You want them in the "standard offset". The ones made for the specialized bikes will not work.

Range extender fits perfectly and the cord plugs in perfectly with room to spare. Having 1050wh this summer is going to be awesome for really long days.
I haven't weighed it as I don't have a decent scale and bathroom scales don't count. It does feel slightly lighter than my 2020 reign but I...
2023 Reign e+2 with 800 wh battery.
I rode 16 miles with only 1000' of actual vertical. Varied between level 3 to 5 as I wanted to keep it against the 20 mph limiter. Easy gravel route. Averaged almost 17 mph with a couple of short stops. Used 32% of battery and it said I have 40 more miles...
