## Description

## Car battery Fulmen FB455 Formula 45Ah 330A 12V

12*V* Voltage
45*Ah* Capacity
330*A* Cold cranking
11.40*kg* Weight

With **45 Ah** at **12 V** and **330 A** of cold cranking current (EN), the **Fulmen FB455** from the **Formula** range is a starter battery built for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Measuring 237 × 127 × 227 mm and the positive terminal on the left, it is the direct replacement for cars fitted from the factory with a 45 Ah battery of this format.
- 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.

### What the Fulmen FB455 is for

The Fulmen FB455 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 B00 hold-down.

### Size, terminals and hold-down of the Fulmen FB455

It has external dimensions of 237 × 127 × 227 mm and weighs 11.40 kg. The positive terminal on the left 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 B00 hold-down, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.

### The Fulmen FB455: Formula range and conventional lead-acid technology

The **Formula** is the Fulmen range the FB455 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.
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.

### Why choose Fulmen batteries

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. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

### Official warranty

The Fulmen FB455 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

On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. 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.

### When you get it and how to return it

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before [[ks:cutoff]]**: 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 **[[ks:return_days]] days** if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I change this battery step by step?

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 left match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On cars with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### How long does the Fulmen FB455 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Fulmen FB455 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 FB455 battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 237×127×227 mm — also written as 237x127x227 mm — 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.

### On which side is the positive of the FB455 model?

Polarity: positive on the left. 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.

### Under which reference is the Fulmen FB455 listed in catalogues?

The manufacturer reference (MPN) is FB455 and its ETN code is 5451580333132 (short form 545 158 033), the European identifier used in spare-part catalogues. The EAN-13 barcode is 3661024044387. It belongs to the Varta Dynamic SLI range. Any of these codes identifies exactly this battery when requesting quotes or comparing prices.

### Will the Fulmen FB455 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 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The FB455 fits 65 verified vehicle versions in our database.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Fulmen FB455?

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.
