The FOX ESS CQ7-S (w) is the slave expansion module for the CQ7 high-voltage system. Each slave adds 6.96 kWh of LFP storage to a stack initiated by a CQ7-M (w) master module, scaling capacity in 6.96 kWh increments up to 14 total modules (one master plus thirteen slaves equals 97.44 kWh). The "(w)" cold-climate variant carries the same heating element as the master, keeping the entire stack thermally matched for -25 degrees Celsius operation. Single-LED status indicator (the master holds the BMS and comms), IP65, 100% depth of discharge.
Note: CQ7-S (w) slaves must only be stacked with CQ7-M (w) masters. Do not mix with non-heated CQ7-M.
