Califaktur Lithium Package VW Grand California – SaftkistePRO 340Ah (2x SaftkistePRO 170Ah)
CALIFAKTUR Lithium "Ultimate" Offgrid Package | 340 Ah (2× 170 Ah) for VW Grand California
The ultimate upgrade for your VW Grand California 600 or 680. With 340 Ah lithium power, you not only increase your capacity eightfold compared to the standard set, but also create the basis for a highly comfortable travel experience.
Why is the 340 Ah Ultimate package so convincing?
-
Maximum energy reserve: With an effectively usable 340 Ah (equivalent to approx. 800 Ah lead/AGM), you can easily be completely self-sufficient for a week or longer – even with intensive use of light, heating and cooling.
-
Maintain VW factory warranty: Thanks to VW-UBB (certificate of conformity), the system is fully compliant with the factory warranty.
-
Power for 230 V: The combination of two batteries enables extremely high discharge currents. Ideal for operating AC-intensive devices such as coffee machines, hair dryers, or induction cooktops.
-
Redundancy & Security: Two independent power boxes work together. This ensures double security and a stable power supply for your Grand California.
-
Perfect load distribution: Optimized cable set for parallel connection ensures even charging and discharging of both batteries.
-
Future-proof: This system turns your VW Grand California into a true "off-grid monster".
Technical Highlights Double Pack
-
Capacity: A massive 340 Ah / 4,352 Wh at a total weight of only approx. 31.6 kg .
-
Dual cell heating: Both batteries are frost-protected down to −30 °C .
-
Double smart power: Monitoring of both units via app (Bluetooth & LTE).
-
Includes Victron Orion XS: Ensures the fastest and safest possible charging of both batteries while driving.
Offgrid check: How long does the 340 Ah battery in the VW Grand California last?
To understand the dimension of 4,352 Wh (watt hours) , we created a realistic scenario for free camping in autumn/winter (approx. 5–10 °C outside temperature).
Daily energy requirements (example):
| Device / Consumer | Daily usage | Consumption (approx.) |
| Diesel heater (blower) | 12 hours | 300 Wh |
| Compressor refrigerator | 24 hours | 400 Wh |
| Light & water pump | Evening/Morning | 150 Wh |
| Charging mobile phones & tablets | 3 devices | 120 Wh |
| Coffee machine (inverter) | 4 cups | 150 Wh |
| TOTAL CONSUMPTION | approx. 1,120 Wh |
Direct comparison: When does the power go out?
-
Genuine VW AGM battery (92 Ah)
-
Usable energy (approx. 50%): 550 Wh
-
Conclusion: After approximately 8 hours , the battery is critically discharged. Self-sufficiency without shore power is hardly possible.
-
-
CALIFAKTUR 170 Ah Basic Package
-
Usable energy (approx. 95%): 2,176 Wh
-
Conclusion: Enough for about 2 days . Perfect for a classic weekend.
-
-
CALIFAKTUR 340 Ah ULTIMATE package
-
Usable energy (approx. 95%): 4,134 Wh (safety reserve already deducted)
-
Conclusion: This allows you to remain completely self-sufficient for approximately 3 to 4 days – without the engine needing to run in between or the sun needing to shine.
-
Pro tip: If you drive for 2-3 hours during this time, the integrated Victron Orion XS will recharge approximately 1,200 to 1,300 Wh with a charging current of up to 50 A. This theoretically extends your self-sufficiency indefinitely .

Intelligent cell compression, high-end engineering and long-lasting power
Safety & Performance
The SaftkistePRO – developed and manufactured in Germany – utilizes a professional compression cell module, produced precisely according to the cell manufacturers' specifications. Thanks to defined caging and high-quality Poron® interlayers, compression forces remain optimally distributed – resulting in significantly longer cycle life and controlled cell behavior during breathing and swelling. Simultaneously, reliably triggering safety valves ensure maximum operational safety.
The SaftkistePRO achieves a service life of up to 20 years and offers stable capacity and fast charging performance even after many cycles. By replacing the standard 75 Ah AGM battery,
The usable capacity is quadrupled, with 30% less weight.
An intelligent DualBMS®, IP-protected components, cell heating down to -30 °C, and a robust IP67 housing make the CALIFAKTUR lithium offgrid package a reliable energy source – far superior to cheaper alternatives. Quality, safety, and sophisticated engineering ensure long-term satisfaction.
