Before ordering the FA654, check this
- Measure the space: the FA654 takes up 230 × 173 × 222 mm (European case size D23).
- The FA654 has the positive terminal on the right: compare it with your current battery.
- Capacity of the FA654: 65 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- The FA654 delivers 580 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- If your car has Start-Stop, the FA654 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
Lead-acid technology in the FA654
Inside, the FA654 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. It is a robust, well-known technology with a good capacity-to-price ratio, and still the basis of most cars, trucks and traction equipment.

FA654 or FB604: which one suits me?
Compared with the FA654, the Fulmen FB604 has 5 Ah less and 100 A less cranking power. The FA654 cranks harder; the FB604 is only a good option if your original battery says 480 A or less. Both measure 230 × 173 × 222 mm, so they fit the same tray.
Can the Fulmen FA654 be used in a car with Start-Stop?
No. The FA654 is a lead-acid battery for cars without automatic engine stop; Start-Stop needs an EFB or an AGM; in this same size there is the Varta N65.
How much does the Fulmen FA654 weigh?
16 kg, with 65 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Fulmen FB604 (60 Ah) weighs 14.6 kg.
Which battery is equivalent to the Fulmen FA654?
With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EA654, Tudor TA654 and Deta DA654. As the FA654 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

Which side is the positive terminal on the Fulmen FA654?
On the FA654, the positive terminal is on the right with the terminals facing you: compare it with your current battery, because with reversed polarity the cables will not reach.

An automatic lead-acid charger with cut-off or maintenance mode, rated at 10 to 20% of its capacity in amps. If it is a vented type, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
