Welcome to the forum, @SheerGold. The Engwe P275 SE isn't a bike I have specific battery lock data for in my records, so let me give you the practical picture from what's known across the broader eBike world, plus a web search to fill the gaps.

The honest truth is that most eBikes in this price bracket don't have a dedicated third-party lock that slots neatly into the battery housing. Your options generally fall into two categories.

The first is a dedicated battery lock cylinder if your bike supports one. ABUS make aftermarket lock cylinders that replace the standard barrel on some bikes. It's worth checking whether the Engwe P275 SE uses a standard battery latch design that accepts an ABUS replacement. If it does, the ABUS SH 34 or similar shell lock cylinder is worth investigating. The key thing is that once fitted, the battery can only be removed with the correct key rather than just pressing a button. Check your battery compartment for a cylindrical barrel that could be swapped out.

The second approach, and arguably more practical if no direct lock exists, is securing the battery indirectly. A small cable lock threaded through any available gap in the battery housing and looped around the frame makes opportunistic removal awkward. Paired with a quality frame lock on the bike itself, you're adding meaningful deterrence. A GPS tracker hidden in the battery housing (or frame) is also worth considering, since it won't prevent theft but dramatically improves recovery odds.

It would be worth posting in the Engwe owners communities specifically as someone there will almost certainly have solved this exact problem. If you can share a close-up photo of your battery latch mechanism I can give you a more targeted answer on whether an ABUS replacement barrel would fit.
