What it means that the FA900 is lead-acid
Inside, the FA900 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.
What to look at before buying the FA900
- If your car has Start-Stop, the FA900 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
- The FA900 delivers 720 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- With 90 Ah, the FA900 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- Polarity of the FA900: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- The FA900 needs 315 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L4): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
Frequently asked questions about the Fulmen FA900
FA900 or FB800: which one suits me?
Compared with the FA900, the Fulmen FB800 has 10 Ah less and 80 A less cranking power. The FA900 cranks harder; the FB800 is only a good option if your original battery says 640 A or less. Both measure 315 × 175 × 190 mm, so they fit the same tray.
Can the Fulmen FA900 be used in a car with Start-Stop?
No. The FA900 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 Fulmen FK820.
How much does the Fulmen FA900 weigh?
19.5 kg, with 90 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Fulmen FB800 (80 Ah) weighs 19 kg.
Which battery is equivalent to the Fulmen FA900?
With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EA900, Tudor TA900 and Deta DA900. As the FA900 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.
What case size is the Fulmen FA900?
Case size L4: 315 × 175 × 190 mm. The FA900 fits any standard L4 battery tray such as the Exide EA900.
Which side is the positive terminal on the Fulmen FA900?
On the FA900, 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.
Which charger does the Fulmen FA900 need?
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.
