Foxygen

Foxygen's lithium leisure batteries with Bluetooth. Sensa reads the battery's own management system over Bluetooth so you can see its charge, health and cells from the dashboard.

Foxygen leisure battery

Sensa Connection Method​

Bluetooth.

Installation​

Install it following Foxygen's instructions, within Bluetooth range of a Bluetooth proxy or the Sensa unit.

Configuration​

There is no configuration necessary on the battery before adding to Sensa Nomad.

Adding to Sensa Nomad​

Close the battery's phone app first, and disconnect anything else using its Bluetooth. The battery's management system allows only one Bluetooth connection at a time, so while another app or device is connected, Sensa cannot reach it.

Open Settings, choose the Devices tab, tick it under Discovered and press Add Selected Devices. If it is not there yet, press Scan.

See Adding devices for more.

What you see​

Sensa reads the battery's size from the battery itself, so it is named Foxygen 105Ah, Foxygen 230Ah, Foxygen 300Ah or Foxygen 460Ah, and appears on the BMS tab of the Habitation dashboard with its charge, voltage, current, cell voltages and temperatures.

Good to know​

  • Every size carries the Unverified label for now. We have read a 105Ah on our bench; the other sizes use the same electronics.
  • The battery's heater is not controlled by Sensa yet. Switch it in Foxygen's own app.
  • It is watched for you. Cold-charging protection and Battery cell imbalance work with it.
