Regen Question

[detroitwheelin]

Does anyone know the power consumption vs regen rate? like for example if you were going up and down the same hill over and over would the power stay at exactly the same level 1:1 power consumption on the way up vs power regen on the way down? .. or does it regen faster than it uses up power?

just curious if anyone has really taken the time (or cared to) to look at these stats.

thanks

@detroitwheelin No, going downhill you'll only average regenerating about 30% the power it took to get up. If you get the OWheelBuddy app, it actually tells you the stats on this for each ride.

There's already been a big thread about this:
