Thanks, Naranja_CT5+. Yes, I am making it complicated. Whether a second battery is wired in or not I would still be carrying it around, so just carrying it securely and swapping it in is hardly an inconvenience. I am guilty of over-think. Thanks for the nudge.

RadCity / Add/Increase Battery to City5+
September 29, 2023, 08:43:18 PM
I have a RadCity5+ Step-Through and I would like to increase the battery capacity, the problem for me is not speed but endurance, I run out of power before I'm done riding and sometimes I have made the last mile with great exertion - I would rather not cut short my rides.
The battery it came with is 672 Wh, 48v, 14Ah, the motor is rated 750W. I have seen some posts about adding an extra battery to different models but not to the City5+. Has anyone done this to the City5+? Can you point me to some helpful articles? I have plenty of room on my rear rack to mount an extra battery but I'm not sure where to begin.
