Fogstar Drift PRO (Gen2) 12V 628Ah Heated LiFePO4 battery

*A CAN communication cable is supplied with each battery*

With a colossal 8,038Wh of usable energy, the Drift PRO 12V 628Ah Gen2 is purpose-built for the most demanding off-grid applications – from expedition-grade campervans and motorhomes to marine systems and full-scale solar installs.

At its core are Grade A EVE MB31 prismatic cells, paired with a rugged 300A Smart BMS and an integrated heating system, delivering consistent, year-round performance even in sub-zero conditions.

Encased in a durable, serviceable metal housing, the Drift PRO 628Ah Gen2 is engineered to thrive in harsh environments. With plug-and-play Victron Cerbo GX compatibility and real-time Bluetooth monitoring via the Fogstar Drift App, you’re in full control – with critical battery data at your fingertips, whenever you need it.


What’s New in the Gen2?

✅ Integrated Active Balancing: Now built-in – no external balancer required.

✅ Battery-Linking via RJ45: Dedicated Battery-Link ports allow multiple Drift PRO units to communicate over CAN bus with a single Victron Cerbo GX (or GX-enabled inverter).

✅ Improved Internal Layout: Optimised for thermal management, cable routing, and long-term serviceability.


Key Features:

✅ 8,038Wh Capacity: Extended runtime for demanding off-grid applications – perfect for high-draw systems and longer stays off-grid.

✅ Grade A Cells: Built with trusted Grade A MB31 LiFePO4 cells for long cycle life and consistent performance.

✅ 300A Smart BMS: Advanced protection against over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, short circuit, and low-temperature charging.

✅ Victron Plug-and-Play Integration: Connect the CAN port on the master battery to the BMS-CAN port on your Victron Cerbo GX (or GX-enabled inverter) using the supplied cable.

✅ Multi-Battery Support: Additional Drift PRO batteries connect via the Battery-Link port, enabling full multi-battery CAN communication with Victron.

✅ 10-Year Warranty & UK Support: Long-term peace of mind with responsive, in-house customer service you can actually talk to.

✅ Fogstar App Monitoring: Real-time Bluetooth monitoring of SOC, cell voltages, temperatures, and cycle data.

✅ Low Temperature Charging Protection: Automatic internal heating system enables safe charging below 0°C.

✅ On/Off Switch: Enables hibernation mode for storage and transport.

✅ Serviceable Metal Case: Durable, serviceable design with M10 terminals.

✅ Energy-Dense Design: Weighs 60.23kg – impressive for 8kWh of capacity, and far lighter than equivalent lead acid setups.

✅ UK Engineered: Designed and developed by Fogstar’s in-house team for real-world off-grid conditions.
