Fogstar Lithium Battery Installation

New installations

If you have started planning your electrical installation why not get some advice before you buy a new lithium battery and inverter? There is a minefield of information on the internet and you must get the right information from a qualified electrician first.

Retrofit lithium batteries

Installing a new lithium battery is only the start, the new battery needs to be charged correctly, and your existing lead acid battery charger may not be the right choice. We only install Victron equipment with the Fogstar Drift Eco 628AH Lithium Battery and specify the right battery chargers to look after your investment.

Lithium battery fusing

We only use Class T fuses on all our large Fogstar lithium battery installs including the Fogstar Drift Eco 314Ah 12V Leisure Battery. The Fogstar eco 628AH can produce a very high current during a short circuit. The battery management system will always try to disconnect if a short circuit is sensed. The Class T fuse and fuse holder we use will disconnect the supply when a very high interrupt current flows during a short circuit, protecting your electrical installation.

Why do I like Fogstar Eco batteries?

6 year Fogstar warranty

When investing in a new lithium battery, the warranty must be as long as possible.

Technical help

Fogstar are always quick to respond when I have a technical question. I have found that some companies want to just sell you a lithium battery and never think about customer service after. Fogstar always answer my questions and give me good advice.

Value for money

You can search and find many different brands of lithium batteries and you will struggle to find better value for money. The eco range of batteries do not have bluetooth inside the battery. I use a seperate Victron shunt with these batteries.

Powerful performance

The battery management system in the Fogstar Drift Eco 628AH Lithium Battery will provide 250A of continuous current. This is ideal when you combine it with a 3000VA inverter.

Industry experience

You only have to browse through the Fogstar website to see the story of how they have developed their business. They specialise in producing high-quality lithium batteries.

Recommended high power large capacity off-grid system

The Fogstar 628AH battery can supply 250A x 12V = 3000 watts. A Victron 3000VA inverter or multiplus are ideal for this battery if you are going to be off-grid and want to use higher-wattage appliances. I like the Victron MultiPlus-II Inverter/Charger 12V 3000VA 120A-32A. The mains 120A charger is ideal because you can go off-grid using your 628AH of stored energy in your battery and then recharge it quickly at a rate of 120A per hour. This means you can stay for one night on mains hook-up and completely recharge your 628AH lithium battery.

The inverter is rated at 3000VA which is about 2400W of usable power (it does depend on the type of load you connect). 2400W will allow you to use many of the small appliances you use at home including a 2200W hair dryer, 1600W induction hob, 1600W air fryer or a 1500W microwave. Obviously you will have to be careful because you can only use one appliance at a time.

Planning your electrical system

If you are starting a new electrical build I can offer a design and planning service to help get the best results from your new electrical system.

The first stage of the design process will involve a discussion to work out what you would like to achieve. Do you need a full off-grid electrical system including solar panels and lithium-ion batteries? or are you planning to use campsites regularly and only need a mains hookup and battery-to-battery twelve-volt system? There will be a lot to discuss to get the best result for your use case.

I will explain the different available systems and the costs involved in supplying and installing all the equipment in your campervan. I always aim to produce an electrical design that can be added to later. You can start with a simple battery system and add solar later if you wish.
