Forster Thermo Control
Sealed lithium iron sulfate battery (LiFePO4) | Power Prismatic Cells (BPC) | absolutely maintenance-free

Forster Thermo ControlDurable performance in cold conditions


With charge absorption down to -30 °C and low self-discharge, ideally suited for non-heated areas such as an exterior battery compartment in a motor home or intermediate storage for solar or wind generators.
Our recommendation when cold plays an important role in the application.

Features

  • Particularly insensitive to cold

    With the special multi-layer heat system, this battery can be warmed up gently and efficiently. It can also be charged at -30 °C and discharged down to -20 °C.
    Your advantage: This battery can be operated well in non-heated, outdoor areas.

  • Very long service life

    Unlike lead-acid batteries, which sulfate at low charge, the LiFePO4 battery is resistant to deep discharge. It can withstand far more charge cycles to a significantly lower depth.
    Your advantage: You get a particularly long-lasting battery.

  • 100% usable capacity and expandable

    Unlike lead-acid batteries, the entire energy of this extremely compact LiFePO4 can be used. In addition, up to four batteries of the same type can be connected in parallel.
    Your advantage: Significantly increased capacity in a small space.

  • High heat tolerance for safe supply even at ambient temperatures up to 60°C.
  • Weight and space savings of up to 60 % compared to a conventional battery of the same capacity.
  • Low self-discharge. Loses only 2 to 3 % charge per month.
  • Flexible installation position. Can be installed upright, lying down, upside down and in any other position.
  • Resistant to low charge. No sulfation. High performance throughout the discharge period.
  • Extremely long life expectancy with full capacity utilization. Up to 4,000 cycles at 80% depth of discharge (= 80% DOD).
  • Capacity expandable by parallel connection of up to 4 batteries of the same type.
  • Monitoring via integrated Bluetooth Free Smart Connect app for Android and iOS.
  • Fully charged in 60 minutes. Accepts enormously high charging currents in the shortest possible time.
  • Ready for installation and immediate use.
  • Absolutely maintenance-free.

Battery knowledge

Our absolutely maintenance-free motorcycle batteries
intAct Bike-Power AGM, intAct Bike-Power SLA, intAct Bike-Power GEL, intAct Bike-Power HVT and intAct Bike-Power GEL HVT-HD are valve regulated lead-acid batteries or VRLA batteries (VRLA=Valve Regulated Lead-Acid). VRLA batteries produce much less gas …
A coherent equation: A lot out, a lot in.
Every battery loses power over time. If it is loaded normally and is always fully charged, the capacity is slowly reduced. If it is often overloaded and insufficiently charged, the capacity is reduced much more quickly, i.e. the battery ages much faster. Ideally, …
Determine excessive self-discharge
If the battery charge drops significantly, possibly overnight, this may be due to leakage current. Silent, unwanted loads can be detected with an ammeter. Oils or liquids deposited on the surface of the battery can also cause considerable self-discharge. …
Recognising and classifying battery damage
When the battery fails, it's annoying. Sometimes it's because of a faulty battery, sometimes it's because of the way you handle it. And only cause research and precaution helps permanently. What is wrong with the battery can often be seen from the outside. …
Supply batteries with grid plates
Wet (flooded) deep-cycle lead-acid batteries with grid plates are particularly suitable for small and medium-sized solar applications and wind turbines thanks to their good capacity absorption and maximum capacity reserves. Grid plate technology is robust …
The order of disconnection and connection
The negative terminal is connected to the body, hence the name grounding. If you accidentally touch the positive terminal and the body at the same time when the negative terminal is connected, e.g. with a metallic tool, a short circuit could occur that …
Removing the starter battery or motorcycle battery
If you want to remove a start-stop battery: inform the vehicle system before removal. First disconnect the negative cable (usually black), also called ground or earth, from the negative terminal of the battery. Then remove the positive cable (usually red) from the positive terminal of the battery.
Chargers for rescue and safety vehicles
Emergency and rescue vehicles and other safety-related types of vehicles often sit around for months, but when it comes down to it, they need to be ready at a moment's notice to put out fires, rescue injured people or clear roads. Chargers like the Fronius …
Always choose a battery that matches the load
Depending on the type of battery, it is designed for certain loads: Starter batteries must deliver as much current as possible during the starting process. The cold start current, measured in CCA, is informative here and shows how much starting power …
Chargers for supply batteries
In order to supply the connected consumers permanently, supply batteries usually have a larger capacity than starter batteries, which are intended to deliver a lot of power, especially in the short term. Chargers designed for starter batteries reach their …

What is a Supply Battery?

Supply batteries must provide power for as long as possible for consumers that are not connected to the regular power grid or the starter battery. Either in mobile applications, e.g. camping or in island installations such as mountain huts, or in safety applications when the normal power grid fails or to compensate for so-called mains wipers. Depending on the application, they are charged with a charger from the mains or via smaller photovoltaic or wind power systems.

So not only do they have to supply power for a long time and then take it up again well, but they also have to cope well with changing current levels and voltages.

Supply batteries are cyclic batteries, i.e. they are designed to continuously deliver current up to a maximum depth of discharge of 80% when supplying electrical consumers and then to be fully recharged again. In contrast, a starter battery delivers a short, strong current surge for starting the engine and is recharged by the alternator while driving.
