The batteries give you 160 minutes of running time on a flat straightway. At 20 mph that's about 54 miles. I've been told that people have gotten up to 70 miles out of a charge, but I can't confirm that.

Can you quantify what had plenty left means? Do you have any idea of pack voltage after the ride? This is a sincere question, not trying to dismiss the 46 mile run at all. IMO there a a big difference between the pack being at 48 volts versus 47 volts after that ride. This is important for me as a part of maintenance when comparing options.
It is good timing as I am guessing I will be in the market soon and I do not know many folks that have the set who could provide some real data.
I paid about $750 for a set of T890 four years ago, not sure what they are cost now. I should be able to find some data on how far that pack goes to discharge 50% and would love to compare against a ranger set.
Sadly one of mine has a dead cell. The rest seems pretty solid, so hopefully can get a used battery from BB to get me some more time... before having to decide.
