BOSCH eBike battery PowerTube | 500 WH Vertical
With the PowerTube 500, trekking and eMountain bikes can easily cover long distances. Thanks to its compact size and minimalist design, the battery fits perfectly into the design of the eBike. The sophisticated technology of the lithium-ion batteries, which can be integrated into the frame, ensures carefree riding fun, while a safety catch prevents them from falling out even on challenging terrain. The batteries can still be easily removed.
Charging times and service life
A charging cycle refers to the complete charging of a battery with a single charge or several partial charges. The duration depends on the battery capacity and the charger. The Standard Charger charges the PowerPack 500 and the PowerTube 500 to 50 % in approx. two hours, the full charge takes 4.5 hours. The Fast Charger charges even faster, providing the PowerTube 500 and PowerPack 500 with half of their energy after just 1 hour - perfect for when you are on the move. The corresponding full charge takes just three hours. The service life of Bosch batteries is primarily influenced by the type and duration of use. Like any lithium-ion battery, a Bosch battery ages naturally, even if it is not used.
Factors that have a positive effect on the service life:
Low stress
Storage at a temperature between 0 and 20 °C
Storage at a charge level of approx. 30-60%
Parking the eBike in the shade or in cool rooms
Factors that shorten the service life:
Heavy use
Storage at an ambient temperature of over 30°C
Prolonged storage in a completely full or completely empty state
Parking the eBike in the blazing sun
Important information
BOSCH provides a very informative brochure, the E-Bike Battery Guide, which we highly recommend! Why is this important? The battery and motor are the central elements of the e-bike. The brochure informs you about the basics of battery technology. This also includes the correct charging, storage and care of the battery.
Not only will you be safe on the road, but you will also ensure the battery's capacity over a long period of time and be able to assess more accurately what you can expect from a battery.
You can determine the realistic range of your battery with the Bosch range assistant.
