I'm trying to get a feel for watts/mile at 20mph - 25mph - 30mph.. without huge grades to negotiate ... or stop and go traffic .. 10/15/20 mile commute.. that type of thing..

If my numbers are done correctly I get about this much worth of assistance out of my BionX, at about 26KM/16MPH, my average ride speed...

6.1 wattHr per mile using level 1.
8.4 wattHr per mile using level 2.
11.3wattHr per mile using level 3.
16.9wattHr per mile using level 4.
21.1wattHr per mile using throttle only.
