So the weather was fine and I took my EPLUS for a ride.
On this very ride my EPLUS reached 8,000 km millage.
It was after work in addition to daily trips to work and back.
Temperature 17C-18C , light wind maybe 10km/hour ,me 66kg with maybe 2kg load, tires pumped to ONLY 50 PSI, no more.
EPLUS moving in complete silence with precise control throttle.
According to CycleAnalist statistics after ride:

DISTANCE: 37.03 km
Ahours used: 8.79
ENERGY/KM: 9.3Whours/km
ENERGY USED: 380.09 Whours
REGEN Ah: 0.890Ah
Amps max : 26.58A
Max. speed: 44.9km/h
I was on power level 4 for half of the trip and on power level 5 on the other half.
Mostly flat with few mild uphills.
What amazed me was almost 1Ah of regen Ahours returned to battery.
It clearly shows advantage of regen breaking, also
pads on my disc BB7 brakes are still very thick , hardly used.
Regen braking - Hardly any gimmick IF properly implemented.
