Fogstar Drift Gen2

Fogstar's second generation Drift leisure battery. Sensa reads the battery's own management system over Bluetooth so you can see its charge and cells from the dashboard.

How it connects​

What you see​

Once the first reading arrives, the battery is named with its capacity, for example Fogstar 100Ah Leisure Battery, and appears on the BMS tab of the Habitation dashboard with:

  • State of charge
  • Voltage, current and power
  • Remaining capacity and cycle count
  • Each cell's voltage, and the spread between them
  • Three temperatures: the pack, cell 1 and cell 2
  • Whether charging and discharging are allowed, and whether it is balancing

Sensa reads the battery every 30 seconds.
