That seems pretty impressive, I'm getting quite a bit less to 50% less on much flatter terrain.
Merc: impressive ride stats. I mean no offence but my intent is to offer constructive comment for the multiple perspectives of the broad range of the e-biker fraternity (to include my lardy-arsed, grossly unfit self). What your stats point to - and noting that the entire ride was done in ECO mode which, in essence, neutralizes the excess weight of the bike - is that you are obviously one very fit individual with a VO2Max score that would put many of us to shame. It would be interesting to know how many Watts you put in through the chain ring?!? Indeed, did you record the Watts delivered by the bike and its estimate of Whr/mile? Subjective I know, but how hard were you working would you say? It sounds like you could have managed that admirable feat on a regular push bike weighing 25 lbs?
I hear that a goodly number of folk buy their first e-bike precisely because they are injured and/or overweight and "...unfit". Pounding around LA for 50 miles in ECO mode sounds exhausting to me!
For the cohort I belong to I consider it a great day if I arrive where I'm going if I'm not in amuck sweat in Level 2 - so use Level 3 & TAB to "...get there" in the all too often vain hope of arriving looking "Cool, Calm and Collected"; and, L2 for the return, even L1 for a laugh. Thus, it would be interesting to hear of rides where folk have used the ASSIST to necessary if not maximum effect and what the battery pack usage was for that...…………..I live and ride a Juiced RC (13Ah battery) on the Norths side of Tucson AZ. There is virtually no level ground here so I use near all modes of assist. ECO -1- 2 and almost never 3 plus I use all 9 speeds of the gear train. My Wh/mi usage varies between 6.9 and 7.1. Almost like clockwork though it is 7.0 Wh/mi. I always use the torque setting too. I am a pretty old duffer (81) so I don't contribute like some younger folks but do pedal
all the time other than coasting. I do ride about 6 miles near every day and do so for pleasure so don't ride real fast as I like to look around and smell the roses along the way.
How many miles I could get per charge is a mystery to me because I charge from 50 percent to 80 percent. Every couple of months I will charge to 100 percent.
I am curious as to what kind of Wh/mi usage are you getting on your rides?

teskow: You sound fit, also - and sensibly pacing yourself? I have heard that a standard metric is 20 Wh/mile - you beat that by a great margin. My rides were short as I tried to regain health thence fitness; my logged Wh/mile ranged from 13.5 to 21 and that with what I thought was pedaling hard!. I was usually in L2 70% of the time and riding as close to 20 mph as I could get. Once I loose enough weight, get my health fixed and get back on the road, I'll see if I can improve on those numbers. All the best.

Merc, Please tell us noobs what app you are using for your data.
Possibly my Wh/mi is low is because I only ride at 12 to 15 MPH most of the time and I gear down often. Of course going down hill I will hit 23MPG in gear #9 but that is only while gravity is playing the most part of propelling me. Near all of my assist is in Eco or #1. in gear 3-5.

Sorry but I can’t seem to find it in the Apple App Store anymore. It’s called Runtastic Road Bike. But I’ve heard Strava is a pretty good app too. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/strava-run-ride-swim/id426826309

Didn’t take all those factors into consideration. But I am pretty fit and weigh no more than 150 lbs. which is a big factor in the range I’m getting.
