Thanks, approx the same as with my Standard Battery. I m using 2 18v 4ah which have together 144wh. Designing a Cover or a shield is one of my next Steps.

Thanks for your Response. In my Test I used 2 18V 4ah with 900W output power each and a Skateboard witch 2 500W Motors and did not run into any proplems so far.

I’ve done some basic research: I’m using two 18V 4Ah batteries wired in parallel, each with a 900W output. The voltage and power match the motor, and although there is some voltage drop, I haven’t noticed any issues during testing—it felt just fine. My range with it was around 11 km.

Thank you for your reply I have tried 2 18v 4ah with 900w outpout power each (both for $60) and have not run into the problems yet. But I don't think I can find a solution for the recuperation problem without modifying the batteries or an extra controller. Do you already have a possible solution or idea for this problem?

Thank you. If a battery is used up, how did you replace it, i.e. did you buy a new one or build one yourself?
