The Fulmen FA472 in practice
When not to choose it
Not for Start-Stop or regenerative braking; those need EFB or AGM. Nor if the original had more capacity or cranking: never downwards.

Car battery Fulmen FA472 Formula Xtreme 47Ah 450A 12V
The Fulmen FA472 car battery is rated at 12 V, 47 Ah and 450 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the Formula Xtreme range, and is designed for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It measures 207 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right, the format sought by anyone replacing a 47 Ah battery in cars.
In short: the Fulmen FA472 (47 Ah, 450 A, 207 × 175 × 175 mm, positive terminal on the right). It is a conventional battery for cars without Start-Stop: if yours has Start-Stop, it needs an EFB or AGM battery of the same size. Verified equivalent alternatives: Tudor TA472 and Exide EA472.
- Reliable cold starts, even after weeks without driving.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
- Original-equipment build quality without the dealership price.
- Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.
What the Fulmen FA472 is for
The Fulmen FA472 covers the needs of passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system: reliable starting, stable voltage for the electronics and a service life of several years in daily use. Check that it matches your current battery in size and terminal position. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 11.40 kg and B13 hold-down.
The Fulmen FA472: Formula Xtreme range and conventional lead-acid technology
The Formula Xtreme is the Fulmen range the FA472 belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.
Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour.
Size, terminals and hold-down of the Fulmen FA472
The Fulmen FA472 is made in the 207 × 175 × 175 mm format and weighs 11.40 kg. The positive terminal on the right decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses a B13 hold-down, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Fulmen FA472 battery installed in the vehicle?
Before you start, check the car handbook: the manufacturer's procedure always comes first. Our full step-by-step guide is on the blog. On most cars it is a 15-30 minute job needing only a 10 mm spanner (up to twice as long when the battery is under a seat or in the boot). What matters most is the terminal order: removing, negative (−) before positive (+); refitting, positive (+) before negative (−). In between, with the engine off and the key out, release the clamp and fit the new battery the same way round as the original, positive on the right (polarity).
How many years does this battery last?
Estimated lifespan of the Fulmen FA472: 4 to 6 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. Treat it as an approximate guide, as every case is different. Actual lifespan varies with climate (cold starts, heat evaporating the electrolyte), with usage and short journeys, with the condition of the alternator and charging system, with power draw while parked and with maintenance; the type of car and Start-Stop also count.
What are the measurements of the FA472 model?
The Fulmen FA472 takes up 207×175×175 mm (length, width and height, terminals included), the European LB1 case size, with a B13 hold-down. Before buying, measure the space in your car: one extra millimetre can stop the hold-down clamp from closing.
What polarity does the Fulmen FA472 battery have?
The FA472 has the positive on the right in a LB1 case: that is its polarity. If your current battery has its positive on the other side, this one is not suitable without longer cables or a reconfigured system (short-circuit risk). Face the battery with its terminals nearest you and see which side the positive post (+, red ring) is on.
Is the FA472 valid for my vehicle?
The quickest way is to enter your number plate in the finder: DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine. You can also look at the "Compatible vehicles" tab, verified by our technical team, or send us make, model, engine and year on WhatsApp; we answer during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The car manufacturer's specifications always take priority over our tables. The compatibility list for the FA472 runs to 306 verified vehicle versions.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Fulmen FA472?
See the "Equivalents" section of this page for the recommended options at the same performance level. Mind the technology: in Start-Stop cars an EFB is not swapped for a conventional battery. Interchangeable means the same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and same CCA; for the FA472, 47 Ah (450 A cranking).
Fulmen FA472 or Varta C6: which one to choose?
It is the verified Varta equivalent for the FA472 tray. Compared with the FA472 it has 5 Ah more and 70 A of cold cranking more. It costs €57.90 more. Decide by price, brand preference and availability: both fit and crank the same.
Fulmen FA472 or Exide EA472: which one to choose?
It is the verified Exide equivalent for the FA472 tray. Compared with the FA472 it has the same Ah and cranking power. It costs €45.70 more. Decide by price, brand preference and availability: both fit and crank the same.
