Inside the FB450: lead-acid technology

  • If your car has Start-Stop, the FB450 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
  • Cold cranking: 330 A (EN), equal to or higher than the original.
  • Your current battery should say about 45 Ah; a little more is also fine.
  • With the terminals facing you, the positive terminal of the FB450 is on the right.
  • Measure the space: the FB450 takes up 220 × 135 × 225 mm.
