Now with an 8-year guarantee!
Highest quality and reliability for almost all areas of application, whether caravan, marine or energy storage. The latest cell technology, optimized BMS 2.0 control and monitoring set the standard for maximum performance and service life. Optimum monitoring and control of measurement and consumption values possible via measurement shunt and Bluetooth.
TOP features
300A high-load power BMS
With the special high-load power BMS, peak currents of 300A duration and 600A are possible. This means that the batteries are never operated at their limit and the service life of the batteries is extended.
100% usable capacity
With our premium battery series, 100% of the specified capacity can be used without damaging the battery. Conventional lithium batteries can often only be discharged to 92-95%.
Multi-Charge-Mode (MCM)
With Multi-Charge-Mode (MCM), you can continue to use 99% of devices such as boosters, shore chargers or solar controllers. This saves you additional costs and preserves the manufacturer's warranty for new vehicles.
Bluetooth measuring shunt
Optional all our X-series batteries are available with a 500A Bluetooth measuring shunt to display the really exact charge level via APP.
Built-in complete protection / safety first
The integrated, intelligent battery management system (BMS) protects the battery and ensures completely safe use.
Big Power Prismatic Cells (BPC)
In contrast to conventional batteries, which consist of many small interconnected cells, FORSTER relies on a few, larger battery cells. The minus in complexity brings a plus in performance, service life and safety.
- Maximum space utilization
- Few cell connectors
- Lower weight
- Quick assembly
- High safety and durability
- High reliability
300A high-load power battery management system (BMS)
A battery management system monitors and controls the individual cells of a battery and protects them from damage. In addition, the BMS controls the output power, which with our Power BMS is 300A continuous current and 600A peak current.
Important functions of the BMS:
- &overload protection
- Deep discharge protection
- &overvoltage protection
- Active cell balancing
- Complete charge control
- Multi-Charge-Mode (MCM)
- Temperature protection of the BMS
- Short-circuit protection
Best warranty handling 8-year warranty
FORSTER INDIVIDUAL BATTERIES grants an 8-year warranty on its batteries. Even after the warranty period, our service is there for you and can check and repair your battery. Thanks to our modular design and the use of large cells, this can be done easily, quickly and cost-effectively.
- 8 years manufacturer's warranty
- Fast warranty processing
- Fast and efficient
- Value for money even after the warranty period
