I believe you'll always want to shoot to keep your batteries above 
1.5 volts per cell, or about 110 in your cause, at all times. When 
the batteries are low, it's a lot easier to sag them to 1.5 VPC than 
when they are full. You have to take it easier as they get lower.

I have the same problem.  I'm supposed to keep my foot under control 
so the voltmeter doesn't sag below 300 volts (in my case).  That's a 
pain, especially when I'm at a light next to a teenager.  I've 
dreamed of a controller feature that would limit current draw to keep 
the voltage above 300V unless I press the Battle Short button.
