What to look at before buying the FB357
- Measure the space: the FB357 takes up 187 × 127 × 220 mm.
- With 35 Ah, the FB357 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 240 A or less, the FB357 covers your engine.
- If your car has Start-Stop, the FB357 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
Lead-acid technology in the FB357
Inside, the FB357 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the FB357 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.
