A big battery will weigh a ton and based on your 3 hrs charge/12 miles it would take a full 24 hrs to charge 100 mile battery. You'd need two at least if you were using it every day

They way the cells can charge in parallel it will be like plugging in more rather than one big battery, I think most ebike battery packs have 20+ cells inside them anyway. The problem is when it pulls so many amps off the plug things start to melt and glow.

Some of the new cargo bikes have 2x battery holders so that helps.
Battery takes 3h to charge fully.
I had a strongly worded conversation with Douze about them hiding the actual true range as I would probably reconsidered my options if I knew it was this poor. Nowhere on their website mentions actual range. 12 miles at 50% assistance is total jokes for the cost of the kit.
We need someone to come up with a flat battery to put at the bottom of the flat section so you get 100+ miles range and it becomes a viable option for people needing long range.
Please @Hulsroy fix it for us
