I have had my Ping battery, 36v/10AHr, since Feb.
I am using a Bafang rear hub motor, and the std controller, 14.8A.
I had one minor issue early in the piece, when my BMS died. Ping replaced that at no cost. Kudos to Ping!
Apart from that, I have had no issues using this battery on an almost daily basis.
As my controller is 14.8A, my drain on the battery is always <1.5C.
I have never hit the LVC. My usual commute is around 14K's, so range isn't an issue, and I only charge at home.
I connected my WattsUp a couple of months back, and have been on some rides in excess of 30 k's.
The max I have drawn from the battery is around 8 AHr's, and the lowest I have seen the voltage drop is 32.4v.
For my use, the Ping battery has performed flawlessly.
I did have a minor issue over the winter months, when the battery seemed to be below capacity, but it seems to have picked up again, now that it has warmed up a bit. The performance drop wasn't significant, or of a major concern, but was noticeable.
I have no idea on the number of cycles I now have on this battery, but performance appears to be the same, and capacity would appear to be still quite good, at least >95%, but as I said, I have never hit the LVC!
IMO, these are a great battery, and a much better option than lead!
Would I buy another one, if I needed it? You bet!
