I also have seen voltage readings in the 44's when at full throttle with a low battery pack, (50%.) One thing I also noticed was that when I stopped and read the digital meter, that voltage was .5 to .7 less then after it sat for 10-15 minutes. Lastly I actually got the most miles on record, (32+,) and 2 hrs and 20 some minutes by going more full throttle and without many stops. That time my pack voltage ended at 48.4 volts.
