## Description

## Where the Fulmen FA1000 fits

The Fulmen FA1000 is a starter battery for cars without Start-Stop: it delivers the current the starter motor needs and then powers lights, control units and audio with the engine off. The FA1000 covers the daily routine of a car without automatic engine stop: cold starts, short trips and loads with the ignition off.
At 100 Ah it moves into large diesels, SUVs, vans and cars with heavy electrical equipment. The FA1000 belongs to the Fulmen FULMEN Formula Xtreme range. [The full range of Fulmen batteries](https://bateriasonline.es/en/fulmen-batteries)

## Check this before ordering the Fulmen FA1000

- The FA1000 needs 353 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L5): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
- Polarity of the FA1000: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- Capacity of the FA1000: 100 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- The FA1000 delivers 900 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- If your car has Start-Stop, the FA1000 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.

## Inside the FA1000: lead-acid technology

The FA1000 is a conventional lead-acid battery, with plates immersed in liquid electrolyte. In cars without energy management, the FA1000 needs no special registration: just connect it.
