It's normal for the battery indicator to drop during loads. Mine does that too. But if you go for a long ride, it should drop below 100% even at rest. I'm really interested in how many miles you get with this thing. If you get over 30, that is really good with a fat tire bike. I don't believe you will get anywhere close to what they claim on their website... 35-50 ebike, 50-60 PAS. Also, as AHicks mentioned their claims on regeneration are unrealistic...
Wallke W-PAS 50% regeneration?

I agree with the idea of riding more, without charging prior, and just monitor that gauge. Give yourself a chance to get to know it. Mine doesn't register in percentage, it has 5 "bars" that do actually give you an idea of where you're at - once you get to know it. I've found my bike has about a 35 mile range when ridden conservatively - which is my normal habit. On that bike, that first bar won't go out until the bike is in the high teens. The second will go at about 25 miles, and the 3rd will go out when it's time to recharge the bike - at about 46-47 volts. That's generally as low as I let it get.
The following was done on 1 full charge. Over the span of 4 days. I average about 12 miles, per outing.
The actual mileage is +37 miles. As mentioned, I did the 1st 13 miles with the wrong tire size.
Approximately 15 miles was done on PAS 2 (20 mph). The remainder was done on PAS 1 (12 mph). For those who are into the math, I've included the voltage settings for each PAS level; these are factory settings, I haven't messed with them.
You are correct. In reviewing my logs I noticed that the 1st 13 miles (as indicated by my phone's GPS) only showed as +11, on the bike's display; this was with the tire size set to 26". After the 1st run, I put the tire size back to 28".
Same. The metering didn't really move off of 100%, until my 2nd run, on the same charge.

I tried to order one on the pre-sale, but it would not take my credit card. They predict they will be shipped on May 15th. I'm impressed with your mileage figures. 32 miles with 68% battery left is really good. Keep me posted on your other rides... I wish you weren't so far away, I would like to ride one before I buy. I live in Washington state...

They usually get back to me within 24 hrs

Looks like they changed the payment options to either PayPal or contact them

Wow! That is unbelievable mileage. Assuming the battery reading is correct, you would be able to go over 100 miles on a charge. I've NEVER heard of such a thing. Anyway, sounds very promising. I assume that is on Level 1 or 2 and pedaling substantially...
I was able to reach somebody with the new phone # they provided, but I was unable to understand the lady on the other end. I went ahead and ordered with PayPal. They say shipping on May 15.... We will see....

I'm in South East Florida. No hills to speak of.
I feel the 53.7 miles (logged on the one charge) is a true representation of the bike's abilities. As the last week was rather windy and on PAS 1 (kicks in at +11 mph) the motor was engaging more than the previous week; where it was more calm.

I recently watched a few YouTube videos, on the "real" bicycle factories in China; they're like many of the other industries in China, that follow the "private label manufacturers " sales model. The real manufacturing factory would create the regenerative technology and then re-sell it as an option to their customers.
I don't see any markings on the hub, to indicate the manufacturer
