The Shimano EP8 RS motor, together with the Orbea RS
batteries, has been designed to provide the maximum
range available for a system with its reduced weight and
dimensions.
The system can provide ranges up to 4.5 hours with the
internal battery (360 Wh) and up to 8 hours by adding the
Range Extender (252 Wh). Capacity estimates are based
on using assistance profile 1 and ECO assistance profile
according to the original settings. In general, connecting
the RS Range Extender battery will increase the capacity
of the Orbea RS 360 Wh internal battery by approximately
70%.
The range available per charge will depend largely on fac-
tors such as:
- Level of assistance: The use of more powerful levels of
assistance will decrease the available range.
- Assistance profile: The assistance profile selected
through the Shimano Etube Project application will vary
the available range. Selecting assistance profile 2 means
increasing the power of each assistance mode, so the
range will be affected.

- Customization of assistance modes: The approxi-
mate range values take into account the power values
of each assistance mode according to Orbea's original
settings. Customizing the power delivery of each mode
through the Shimano Etube Project app will affect the
final range of the batteries.
- Temperature: Charging and using the battery in low
temperatures will decrease the range per charge.
- Weight of the cyclist and equipment/luggage.
- Cyclist's pedaling power.
- Uneven terrain: Usage on uneven terrain will affect the
range available per charge.
- Frequent stops and starts can affect the available
range.
