Fogstar Drift 12V 460Ah Lithium Leisure Battery (Gen 2)

The Fogstar Drift 12V 460Ah Lithium Leisure Battery (Gen2) is a large-capacity LiFePO4 leisure battery for campervans, motorhomes, boats, off-grid solar systems and backup power applications. With 5,888Wh of stored energy, a 300A Smart BMS, Bluetooth monitoring, integrated low-temperature heating and IP67 protection, it is built for demanding 12V electrical systems where high usable capacity, strong discharge performance and reliable long-term operation are required. Key Features 460Ah capacity with 5,888Wh of stored energy 12.8V LiFePO4 lithium battery chemistry 300A Smart BMS for high-demand systems 0.2A shunt accuracy for improved state-of-charge monitoring Integrated active cell balancing Grade A EVE LF230 prismatic cells Bluetooth monitoring via the Fogstar Drift App Integrated automatic low-temperature heating IP67 waterproof and dustproof construction Compatible with Victron systems Supports series and parallel battery configurations Physical on/off switch M8 terminals with bolts included 10-year warranty Large-Capacity 12V Lithium Power The Drift Gen2 12V 460Ah provides 5.888kWh of stored energy from a single 12V battery, making it well suited to larger campervan, motorhome, marine and off-grid electrical systems. Its high capacity can reduce the need to install multiple smaller batteries, helping simplify system design where installation space allows. A maximum continuous discharge rating of 300A provides the current required for powerful inverter systems and demanding DC loads. This makes the battery suitable for installations running equipment such as refrigeration, cooking appliances through an inverter, pumps, lighting, communications equipment and other high-consumption devices. 300A Smart BMS and Active Cell Balancing The integrated 300A Smart Battery Management System monitors and protects the battery while allowing substantial continuous power delivery. It incorporates a 0.2A-accuracy shunt for more precise current measurement and improved state-of-charge reporting. Active cell balancing helps keep individual cell voltages closely matched throughout the battery pack. This supports consistent performance, improved charging efficiency and long-term battery health across repeated cycling. Bluetooth Battery Monitoring Built-in Bluetooth allows users to monitor the battery through the Fogstar Drift App on compatible iOS and Android devices. Important information including voltage, current, state of charge and temperature can be viewed directly from a phone or tablet, providing useful visibility of battery performance without requiring a separate basic battery monitor. Technical Specifications Specification Value Battery Chemistry LiFePO4 Nominal Voltage 12.8V Capacity 460Ah Energy 5,888Wh Cell Type Grade A EVE LF230 prismatic cells BMS 300A Smart BMS Maximum Continuous Discharge 300A Recommended Charge Voltage 14.4V Shunt Accuracy 0.2A Cell Balancing Active balancing Cycle Life 4,000 cycles at 80% DOD Monitoring Bluetooth via Fogstar Drift App Low-Temperature Heating Integrated automatic heating Protection Rating IP67 Dimensions 520 × 238 × 221mm Weight Approx. 41kg Terminals M8, 1.25 pitch, 12mm bolts included Warranty 10 years Automatic Low-Temperature Heating LiFePO4 cells should not be charged below their safe operating temperature. The Drift Gen2 addresses this with integrated low-temperature heating, automatically warming the battery before charging when required. This makes the battery particularly useful for campervans, motorhomes, boats and off-grid installations that may remain exposed to cold UK winter temperatures or be installed in external and unheated battery compartments. IP67 Protection for Mobile and Marine Systems The IP67-rated enclosure provides strong protection against dust and water ingress. This gives installers greater flexibility when selecting a suitable battery location and makes the Drift Gen2 particularly well suited to marine systems, campervan electrical installations, motorhomes and rugged off-grid applications. Series and Parallel Configuration Configuration Maximum Supported Series Connection Up to 4 batteries for 48V systems Parallel Connection Up to 16 batteries The ability to connect multiple batteries in parallel allows total storage capacity to be increased significantly for larger solar battery systems. Supported series operation also provides a route to 24V, 36V and 48V battery systems when the batteries and communications are correctly configured for series operation. Victron System Integration The Fogstar Drift Gen2 range supports integration with compatible Victron systems, making the 460Ah model particularly attractive for larger campervan, marine and off-grid installations using Victron inverter/chargers, MPPT solar charge controllers and system monitoring equipment. Compatible communication can provide cleaner integration and more accurate battery information within a properly configured Victron electrical system, helping the inverter, chargers and battery management system operate together effectively. Typical Applications Large campervan and van conversion electrical systems Motorhome lithium leisure battery upgrades Marine and boat electrical systems Off-grid solar battery storage Cabins and remote properties High-power inverter installations Backup power systems DIY solar systems Extended off-grid touring Large 12V renewable energy systems Expandable 24V and 48V battery banks using supported configurations Why Choose This Product? The Fogstar Drift 12V 460Ah Gen2 provides almost 5.9kWh of energy storage from a single battery while retaining a familiar 12V system architecture. Its 300A Smart BMS gives it the current capability required for powerful inverter applications, while premium EVE cells, active balancing and accurate shunt monitoring support reliable long-term performance. Bluetooth monitoring, automatic low-temperature heating, IP67 protection and Victron compatibility make it particularly well suited to high-spec campervan, motorhome, marine and off-grid solar installations. The ability to expand in series or parallel provides additional flexibility as energy requirements grow, while a 10-year warranty offers long-term reassurance.
