Title: help to choose! which one is better?
Post by: moein on May 12, 2015, 01:53:27 PM

Hi Everybody!

I have to choose between these two models e-scooters:
- 3000w motor, 72v, 30ah battery
- 3000w motor, 60v, 40ah battery

I know that the second option get me more RANGE.
But my main concern is about motor voltage. Is there any difference between the performance of 72v motor and 60v motor? which one is better? higher voltage or lower one?

Thank you

Higher Voltage is better, you can always add more cells in parallel, for more range, but you cannot usually add more in series without damaging the motor.

Also at max load 72V motor will pulling 41.66A vs 60V motor pulling 50A


Higher Voltage  should have better acceleration.
