The Fulmen FB455 at a glance

The Fulmen FB455 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. If your car has no Start-Stop and had a 45 Ah battery, the FB455 is a direct replacement.

At 45 Ah it is a small size: the usual choice for petrol superminis and city cars with little equipment. The FB455 belongs to the Fulmen FULMEN Formula range. More Fulmen batteries
