Vectrix First Hybernation

Last weekend, the weather was finally warm enough and the winter rain storm finally has passed. My Vectrix has been parked and charged on and off for the last 4 months. Taking the scooter out brought that joy back again. Unfortunately, my scooter battery loss all of it's charge after 3 miles of driving leaving me with just enough juice to get back home. So what I've learned with the Vectrix when it is parked for a long time is it needs to be driven on it's first ride out from hybernation in order for the battery pack to deplete itself properly. Then the subsequent charges is back to normal allowing me to ride a 30 miles range again at 25 miles per hour.
