Renegade Diablo - Reduced RangeUpdated 25 days ago
Many factors can affect overall range, including riding style, terrain, environment, ambient temperature, battery age, tyre pressure, and rider weight. If you've noticed a sharp decrease in range and don't believe it’s due to any of these factors, read on.
Ambient temperature
• Lithium-ion batteries give their best performance at about 77 °F (our advertised range is based on this figure).
• At 50 °F, expect roughly 25 % less power.
• At 32 °F, the loss can reach 50 %.
• Riding in weather below 59 °F will usually cut range noticeably.

Tire pressure – the most common cause
• Check all-terrain tires often.
• Recommended pressure sits between 40 – 50 psi.
• Anything around 20 psi or lower can more than halve range because rolling resistance rises sharply.
Other Troubleshooting Steps
If you susp e is with the board itself and not one of the above factors, try recalibrating the Battery Management System (BMS):
- Ride the board until it completely turns off – keep riding past 0% until the board no longer powers on (blue power light off).
- Charge the board to full in a single charge – wait until the charger light turns green.
- Repeat this process twice – this should help recalibrate the BMS.
If the board is still experiencing reduced range or the battery percentage is not dropping in 1% increments, contact our tech support team for further assistance.
