Where the Fulmen FA852 fits
The Fulmen FA852 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.

At 85 Ah it moves into large diesels, SUVs, vans and cars with heavy electrical equipment. The FA852 belongs to the Fulmen FULMEN Formula Xtreme range. The full range of Fulmen batteries
