Fogstar Drift vs. Fogstar Drift Pro: A Practical Comparison
When choosing between the Fogstar Drift and Fogstar Drift Pro, it’s essential to understand how the features impact your campervan’s electrical system in practical terms. Here’s a closer look at the differences to help you decide which is right for your needs.
Battery Management Systems (BMS): What’s the Difference?
- Fogstar Drift: High-Discharge JBD BMS
The Fogstar Drift comes equipped with a robust high-discharge BMS, which means it can handle significant power output safely. This is essential for running appliances that draw a lot of power, like fridges, lights, or chargers. The BMS protects against overcharging and overheating, ensuring the battery stays in good condition even with heavy use. - Fogstar Drift Pro: 300A JBD BMS
The Drift Pro, on the other hand, features a 300A JBD BMS, which allows it to discharge even more power. This makes it ideal if you’re using power-hungry devices like induction cookers or electric heaters, or if you have larger inverters (up to 3500W). The higher discharge rating means the Drift Pro can handle more demanding systems, giving you extra peace of mind when running multiple large devices at the same time.
User Control & Advanced Inputs
- Fogstar Drift: Basic Control
The Drift gives you all the essentials for power management, but if you want detailed control or more advanced configurations, it may require additional equipment. It’s perfect for users who prefer simplicity but still need a powerful, reliable battery. - Fogstar Drift Pro: On/Off Switch & RS485/CAN Inputs
The Drift Pro includes an on/off switch, which adds convenience when you need to quickly disconnect your battery, especially for long storage periods. The RS485/CAN inputs provide advanced communication options for integrating with more sophisticated systems or external devices. This feature is great for users who need to manage their system’s data or want the flexibility to connect with future technology upgrades. It’s the battery for people who like to stay ahead of the curve.
Winter Readiness: Are Both Batteries Suitable?
Yes, both the Fogstar Drift and Drift Pro are winter-ready, featuring built-in heating elements to ensure they perform even in freezing temperatures. Whether you’re camping during a cold UK winter or traveling through snowy environments, both batteries will keep delivering reliable power. The heating function prevents the batteries from dropping below safe operating temperatures, which can help prolong their lifespan in challenging conditions.
Victron Integration: Who Needs It?
- Fogstar Drift: Basic Victron Compatibility
While the Drift range works well with Victron systems, it doesn’t have the direct integration that the Drift Pro offers. You’ll need a Victron shunt or other devices to access system monitoring, which can be more limited. - Fogstar Drift Pro: Full Victron Integration
The Drift Pro is optimized for seamless Victron integration. This means that if you’re using Victron equipment, like the Cerbo GX, you can monitor and control your battery directly from your Victron system. No need for additional shunts or accessories—the Drift Pro communicates directly, giving you real-time insights into your battery’s performance with minimal setup.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Fogstar Drift is perfect for users who want solid, reliable performance at a great price. It’s versatile, handles everyday power needs, and fits well for those who don’t require advanced features.
- Fogstar Drift Pro is ideal if you have higher power demands, are running a Victron system, or want more control and flexibility over your battery setup. Its advanced features, like the 300A BMS, Victron integration, and on/off switch, make it perfect for users who need more power and convenience.
Fogstar offers excellent build quality and long warranties with both options, so whichever you choose, you’re investing in a battery designed to last.
