Power drop below 50% battery #25

Some users (including me) noticed a significant power drop when the battery is at 50% or lower. This is supposedly a software feature introduced in 1.3.4. It would be nice to have an option to either disable it or set to a different value, like 20% or so.

It is not a software feature, it's simply physics. The battery voltage drops as it is depleted, thus the performance decreases as well.

There is however code in the software that throttles the scooter if the capacity is less than 800mAh, that's like 8%
