What I mean is that a battery doesn't have wheels. It can't go anywhere, so you can't give it a range rating unless you put it in a vehicle. Any battery range rating is bullshit.
If you take an ebike with a range of 200 km and take it's battery out and put it on a Nissan Leaf, it won't go 20 km. If you take a Cadillac Escalade battery and put in a Leaf somehow, it will definitely achieve a lot more than the 600 miles it did on the SUV.
Yeah, we get that. An electric generator (battery backup) gets 0km/h... Hopefully
