If someone knows of one available...

Thank You
Endless debate about electric vs gas. Reality, lithium batteries have a flat voltage curve the reason why unlike lead acid cells where the voltage drops, it is hard to measure accurately the remaining power.

Not poking fun but concerned about topping off your battery, you could carry a gasoline generator. That 40 mile claimed range is likely one thin person. Tires pumped hard and not into the wind or with the lights on. Oh and I will bet if you check temperature will effect it.
