The Fulmen FA722 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 FA722 Formula Xtreme 72Ah 720A 12V
The Fulmen FA722 from the Formula Xtreme range delivers 72 Ah and 720 A of cold cranking current (EN) at 12 V: the usual specification for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Measuring 278 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for cars fitted from the factory with a 72 Ah battery of this format.
In short: the Fulmen FA722 (72 Ah, 720 A, 278 × 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 TA722 and Tudor TB712.
- Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
- Stable voltage for the vehicle electronics (ECU, sensors, climate control).
- Low self-discharge: copes with long stops without losing charge.
- Designed to last several years under normal daily use.

According to our database, the Fulmen FA722 equips more than 452 vehicles from brands such as Ford, Opel, Renault, Vauxhall, Nissan and Audi, among others.

The compatibility list also includes models from Chevrolet, BMW, Volvo, Volkswagen, Seat, MG, Cadillac and Suzuki. It covers 301 original-equipment references, one of the widest coverages in its format.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
The Fulmen FA722 is made in the 278 × 175 × 175 mm format and weighs 15.90 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 and 1 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Fulmen FA722: Formula Xtreme range and conventional lead-acid technology
The FA722 is part of the Fulmen Formula Xtreme range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.
Fulmen: the maker behind the FA722
Fulmen is the historic French brand of the Exide group: batteries made on the same lines and with the same technology as original equipment, widely used by workshops across Europe. All the Fulmen batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
Warranty and coverage
The Fulmen FA722 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects; the exact period is stated in the brand's conditions. If it fails through a defect within the period, we replace it free of charge.
Usage and maintenance tips
Keep the terminals clean and tight, and check that the resting voltage does not drop below 12.4 V: below that it is time to recharge. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
When you get it and how to return it
Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed before 6:00 pm: 24-48 working hours in mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 to 5 days in the islands and the rest of Europe. Returns are accepted for 14 days if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Fulmen FA722 battery installed in the vehicle?
In most cars it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — with positive on the right match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−).
How long does the Fulmen FA722 battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Fulmen FA722 is 4 to 6 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.
What are the dimensions of the Fulmen FA722 battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 278×175×175 mm — also written as 278x175x175 mm and correspond to the European LB3 case size — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your car before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
What polarity does the Fulmen FA722 battery have?
Polarity: positive on the right. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
Will the Fulmen FA722 battery fit my car?
Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The FA722 fits 429 verified vehicle versions in our database.
What are the equivalents of the FA722 model?
Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop cars. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
Fulmen FA722 or Exide EA722: which one to choose?
The Exide alternative that fits where the FA722 goes, with the same polarity. Compared with the FA722 it has the same Ah and cranking power. It costs €59.20 more. A straight swap with nothing to adapt; the difference is the price and the brand you prefer.
Fulmen FA722 or Varta E38: which one to choose?
The Varta alternative that fits where the FA722 goes, with the same polarity. Compared with the FA722 it has 2 Ah more and 30 A of cold cranking more. It costs €90.20 more. A straight swap with nothing to adapt; the difference is the price and the brand you prefer.
