Fogstar Friday - 15% off lithium batteries

[Jev88]

My Fogstar leisure battery ordered end of November was due this week but is now delayed two or three weeks

 

[PaulC70]

Well i ordered the 300ah one only a week or so ago and it still said on the order page for delivery first week of January, not even had an email yet from them.

 

[BILL 875]

can you collect if within a reasonable distance

 

[Vansflyer]

can you collect if within a reasonable distance

They told me I could collect and we live the other side of Brum so a probable yes to collection.

I ordered 2x 460ah in November and received an email from Becs advising a delay in delivery (should have been first week Jan) and new delivery date will be February

 

[BILL 875]

When I ordered my 105Ah on 2/12 their website contained conflicting information. In one place on the page it said 'order now for delivery 1st. week of January' but then lower down it 'pre-order for February delivery'. I'm expecting the latter to be applicable.

 

[BILL 875]

Hi, I have a reply from Fogstar in a nutshell its says the shipment has been delayed by a few weeks and they are hoping they will be docking end of Jan/Feb, but will know better when they have a docking date. it would appear they are not in the UK yet, so you can cancel your order if you wish. Bill

 

[RichardB]

Yed, just to confirm what others have said, spoke to them earlier and my 300ah due January is now end of January/Early february. Happy to wait as its the right price and physical size for what I need

 

[BILL 875]

I'm in the same boat I have changed stuff around to fit the battery so I will stick with it I'm waiting to go to Spain, a bummer really.

 

[BILL 875]

or possibly a three hour drive to collect if youre in a hurry and after they confirm they are in stock ???? might be worth considering?

That means my 2x460 will be on the shipment, hurray but won’t be at home to fit until March. I’ll be replacing my Relion 300ah lithium which is only 18 month old so anyone wanting to buy it let me know

 

[Raul]

I’m waiting for new stock to arrive to, hopefully beginning of feb. Me hoping they will have new bms in stock with this shipment.

What changes are they making to the BMS?

 

[Raul]

It’s choice rather than changes. The one I want is out of stock. I bought two back in December, then they run out of stock. The one available I don’t like it as it hasn’t got active balancer.
Their batteries are equipped with JBD, not bad for matched cells, but not active balancer. JK has built in this active balancer, and you can set the voltage when to kick in. Also has a port for a heater, so you can add heating mat if necessary.
I’m building two batteries for house storage. I had few cells from them and tested one for capacity. So I like to get another set of 16 to build another 48v module, hence another bms, that’s out of stock. Each module will be 14.3kwh.

It's just the BMS you are buying not a battery.

 

[Raul]

It's just the BMS you are buying not a battery.

Yes bms on it’s own, plus eve 280ah cells. The cells are in stock.

 

[dpsuk999]

Just had an email from Dave at Fogstar asking me to confirm my delivery address so looks like the shipment of batteries which was due beginning Jan then put back to beginning Feb is/has landed and will be shipped very soon

 

[Jev88]

Not yet had my DPD notification yet

 

[BILL 875]

Hi, Fogstar battery arrived today Sunday 10.am , so they are arriving at last. Bill

 

[dpsuk999]

That’s good service, I got an email from Fogstar on Thursday asking for a contact number to give to DPD and they said my batteries will be dispatched next week but I’ve yet to get any notification from DPD.

 

[Jev88]

Sunday delivery received.... Which is great but left parcel on doorstep!
