If it's a lead acid battery then it's important to charge it for 12 hours the first three or 4 times you use it, and then try to keep it fully charged as possible and unplug it once it's charged, don't leave it on trickle. Another thing is to not allow it to discharge completely, i.e. over use it on a journey.

I have an electric bike I got over a year ago and it is great. You do have to pedal. Range is maybe 4-8 miles on battery alone, but if you pedal, you can go 20 miles or more, depending on how fit you are. Some hills are too steep for the motor alone and you must pedal and pedal hard.
It's definitely NOT an electric moped, but can be great exercise and the electric assist can cut your travel times in half, if you are willing to pedal with the assist added for speed.
