Orbea Rise Battery reporting as 540wh in app

[jab0rnal]

Hi All,

I've just picked up an Orbea Rise M-Team. I had ordered it with a 360wh battery in. However, when i look at the app it reports the following:

Is this just the Shimano app false reporting? I'm a little confused about the model number (which includes 360) but then the 540Wh stated after.

Anybody else had the same issue?

I think I've worked out the model number: 360 refers to 36.0 volts, and the 150 is the amp hours (15.0) . So, 15 amp hours at 36 volts is 540wh.

Looks like I got an upgraded battery.

If you weight the bike, you can tell.
Difference between the 2 batteries should be ~0.8 kg.

It's about 19.8KG - but that's using a set of bathroom scales with me on it, with and without holding the bike, then subtracting the two numbers gives me 19.8KG. But I obviously can't weigh my bike with a 360 battery and a 540. So that number doesn't really help me figure out what battery I have.

It's a 540, which is a nice upgrade if you ask me. Try charging it to 80% to extend the life of the battery.

The 360 = 1.95kg
The 540 = 2.7kg

Thanks ChillyWilly, yeah i figured as much once I deciphered the model number after looking at a few other Phylion batteries online. Thanks for the reply.
