Truck battery Fulmen FG1553 StartPRO 155Ah 900A 12V

With 155 Ah and 900 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Fulmen FG1553 from the StartPRO range is built for professional use in trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in trucks with a 513 × 223 × 223 mm format: same 155 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the left.

In short: the Fulmen FG1553 (155 Ah, 900 A, 513 × 223 × 223 mm, positive terminal on the left). Verified equivalent alternatives: Varta L2 and Exide EG1553.

  • Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
  • Heavy Duty construction for intensive professional use.
  • Powerful cold cranking for large-displacement diesel engines.
  • Designed for 24 V installations with two batteries in series.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Fulmen FG1553

It has external dimensions of 513 × 223 × 223 mm and weighs 40.20 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 and 1 terminals, 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.

Vehicles compatible with the Fulmen FG1553

This battery appears as compatible in more than 280 vehicles from manufacturers such as Fiat, Fendt, Case, Universal, Massey Ferguson and International-Harvester. For anyone who needs to replace the battery in their Fiat or Fendt, this Fulmen FG1553 reproduces the original specifications. It also appears as a replacement in vehicles from Case International, Laverda, Paget (valmet), Bolinders - Volvo, Zetor, Liebherr, Zettelmeyer and Bröyt, among other manufacturers. In our database it is cross-referenced against 15 original-equipment part numbers, which gives an idea of its real coverage.

The Fulmen FG1553: StartPRO range and conventional lead-acid technology

The StartPRO is the Fulmen range the FG1553 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.

What Fulmen does differently

With more than a century of history, Fulmen offers complete ranges for cars, trucks, motorcycles and leisure with the industrial quality of the Exide group. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Fulmen FG1553 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. An important note for commercial vehicles: most trucks use two batteries connected in series (24 V installation). If you replace only one, the new battery works alongside the old one, which has already lost capacity; that imbalance shortens its life and the manufacturer may treat it as misuse. Always replace both at the same time.

Usage and maintenance tips

Keep the terminals clean and tight and the battery firmly secured against chassis vibration. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.

Shipping, delivery and returns

Order before 6:00 pm with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have 14 days to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my lorry have two batteries?

Most lorries, buses and tractors run on 24 V with two 12 V batteries connected in series. Always replace both at the same time and with the same model: if one is new and the other old, they become unbalanced and both last less.

How long does the Fulmen FG1553 battery last?

Estimated lifespan of the Fulmen FG1553: 4 to 6 years in normal lorry use. Treat it as an approximate guide, as every case is different. Many factors play a part: how it is used (lots of short trips, for example), temperature (cold makes every start harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), the condition of the alternator and charging system, power drawn with the engine off and maintenance, as well as the type of truck and whether it has Start-Stop.

What are the measurements of the FG1553 model?

Before buying, measure the space in your truck: one extra millimetre can stop the hold-down clamp from closing. The Fulmen FG1553 takes up 513×223×223 mm (length, width and height, terminals included).

On which side is the positive of the FG1553 model?

The FG1553 has the positive on the left: that is its polarity. It must match your current battery: reversed polarity means lengthening cables or reconfiguring the system, with a risk of short circuit. Face the battery with its terminals nearest you and see which side the positive post (+, red ring) is on.

Will the Fulmen FG1553 battery fit my truck?

For your own vehicle: type your number plate into the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA identify model and engine), check the "Compatible vehicles" tab below, listing vehicles verified by our technical team, or message us on WhatsApp with make, model, engine and year; we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). Our database holds 141 verified vehicle versions for the Fulmen FG1553. The truck manufacturer's specifications always take priority over our tables.

Which interchangeable batteries are there for this one?

To replace the Fulmen FG1553 without modifications, the other battery must be identical in size, polarity, Ah and CCA. The "Equivalents" section of this page gathers the recommended options with equivalent performance; remember that in Start-Stop trucks an EFB should not be replaced with a conventional battery.
