The YUME Predator takes a whole new approach to battery implementation. Instead of following the current industry standard of using 21700 Li-Ion battery packs, the Predator incorporates a Panasonic™ battery unit made from 3.6V 50Ah EV cells. The battery design takes a different approach to deliver 72V 50Ah of total power. The current industry standard is to use 200 pieces of 21,700 type 3.6V 5Ah cells. With the YUME Predator however, 20 units of individual 3.6V 50Ah cells are combined to create our power supply. Our custom designed and tuned controllers ensure the Predator can handle the high discharge rates this new battery supplies.
The Panasonic cells in the Predator are used primarily within the electric car industry and are incredibly reliable. The battery technology represents a much-improved safety design and the lower lithium content reduces the risks of fire hazards significantly.
One of the most significant differences when using this EV battery technology is longevity. Our custom built and supplied Panasonic battery packs are not only safer, but battery life is also at least 4 times that of high performance 18650 or 21700 battery packs due to the low lithium consumption technology. With an average of 2000 recharge cycles (vs 500 cycles for 21700 battery packs), the power source of the new YUME Predator will outlast any (current) scooter on the market by 4 times, further protecting the long-term investment in your performance electric vehicle.
