They all work very similar and range is based off of your cadence, power and fitness. The motor works off of your cadence and torque. For instance if you put your gearing in the smallest cog and try and climb up fromme access road, you will get zero help from the motor, you actually need to be in the right gear to give you proper cadence which is 85-110. The higher you cadence and power the less the torque on the motor hence a longer lasting battery. I personally ride in boost all the time and get between 24-26km on a battery. This is about an hour an 1hr 15-25 min of riding or what would be done in 3 hrs. Example would be ride from Highlands across carpenter Bridge, up the plunge to somewhere over there, down, back up the plunge to hoods and down back home 21km in boost 2 bars left 52 minutes, I have done two laps of somewhere over there and one on hoods same ride and battery went red on my way down the university hill. Or I can take two batteries and ride from Highlands, to 7km on sea 2 sky gondi road, drop one battery, ride up to hanging gardens, down and back to road and up to top of gondi, have a coffee, new battery in and then ride pixie, and mischief and rogue all the way back down through crumpit to coffee at counterpart and home with 3 bars left on 2nd battery 44km and 2.5 hours.
