Electric Skateboard Battery + Range Calculator

Calculates range and recommends the best battery upgrade for your skateboard, based on your exact scenario.

‍

Great for riders frustrated with short range who want to extend trips without guessing.

‍

We use current board model, riding style, rider weight, terrain, and budget to accurately estimate real-world range and recommend the optimal battery upgrade. These inputs account for variables that drastically affect efficiency. Limitation: estimates are based on average conditions; extreme cold or aggressive riding reduces actual range.
