## Description

## Where the Fulmen FA722 fits

The Fulmen FA722 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 FA722 covers the daily routine of a car without automatic engine stop: cold starts, short trips and loads with the ignition off.
At 72 Ah it sits in the range of compact and mid-size diesels, SUVs and MPVs. The FA722 belongs to the Fulmen FULMEN Formula Xtreme range. [More Fulmen batteries](https://bateriasonline.es/en/fulmen-batteries)
