The Fogstar Drift 24V 280Ah LiFePO4 lithium leisure battery is the the perfect choice as the heart of your leisure, marine, off-grid, or home energy storage system. Made with Grade A prismatic cells, the Fogstar Drift range features a JBD Battery Management System (BMS), heater, and Bluetooth for connectivity and monitoring via the Fogstar Drift App. This high quality yet affordable leisure battery has a 6000 cycle life and is backed up by a 10 year warranty, giving you peace of mind that it will provide many years of reliable service.
High quality branded prismatic cells
Fogstar is a multi-award winning battery supplier whose long-standing relationship with prismatic cell manufacturer EVE has allowed them to develop a comprehensive understanding of the cell chemistry and technical specifications, making EVE the perfect partner for the Fogstar Drift leisure battery range. Many leisure battery suppliers simply won't know which cells are being used at the assembly phase, nor will they understand the grading, quality processes, or the cell configuration. This is why Fogstar has been involved since the inception of the Drift product, overseeing the specification of every component and ensuring each battery contains high quality, branded, and traceable LiFePO4 cells.
Comprehensive battery protection
Fogstar uses a 200A BMS from JBD for this battery which contains a wide range of protection features, ensuring optimal charging and battery health throughout the lifecycle of the cells. These protective features include: Overcharge Protection | Overcurrent Protection | Cell Balancing | High/Low Temperature Protection | Undervoltage Protection | Short Circuit Protection.
Heater and Bluetooth as standard
Every Fogstar Drift battery comes with a heater and Bluetooth connectivity built-in as standard. The heater takes a small amount of power from the charging source and heats the battery to 5°C, allowing it to charge in temperatures as low as -20°C. Bluetooth connectivity allows you to view real time data about the health of the battery via the Fogstar Drift App which has been custom built to connect directly with the BMS and is free to download on both Android and iOS.
Unrivalled performance
The Fogstar Drift 24V 280Ah has impressive charge and discharge performance characteristics with 200A maximum for each, enabling rapid charge times and the use of high power loads such as inverters.
