DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Range and versatility
The Fusion 860 delivers 860 Wh in a durable design. This means a range suitable for extended sessions of 60 to 120 minutes, depending on the power used and conditions. It's a great compromise for those who want to extend their outings without carrying an overly heavy battery.
Consistent power and feel
Thanks to a redesigned internal structure and high-density lithium cells, the battery delivers stable voltage even at the end of its charge. This results in consistent power delivery and constant thrust to facilitate take-offs and accelerations in foil assist.
Cooling and safety
The Fusion 860 integrates a thermal management system and multi-point electronic protections. You'll feel the difference in demanding conditions: better controlled heat and protection against overvoltages, for increased battery durability.
Compatibility and Practical Use
Designed for the Foil Drive Fusion Base Kit, the 860 connects without an AC Lead cable and is compatible with Fusion Slim and Fusion Max systems. Its ergonomic design makes handling easy and allows for quick changes between sessions.
Construction and Durability
The casing combines anodized aluminum and reinforced composite to withstand marine environments. Watertight connectors and the IP68 compartment contribute to longevity, even after many charge/discharge cycles.
Who it's for and When to Use It
We recommend this battery to riders looking for a good balance between weight, power, and range. It is particularly suitable for regular surf foil, wingfoil, and downwind riders who want to extend their sessions without complex installation.
