U check the battery spec or not? They use german technology. Maybe similar to varta Germany, 2 years warranty is nothing if the product is good.

I used the century ultramax with 21 months warranty now 3 years still ok. Warranty give peace of mind for me.

car battery or lead acid can last many years if use in "perfect" condition, if you can relocate the car battery to somewhere else not close to the hot engine, it can last much much much longer

i copied this off google

QUOTE
The optimum operating temperature for the lead-acid battery is 25°C (77°F). As a guideline, every 8°C (15°F) rise in temperature will cut the battery life in half. VRLA, which would last for 10 years at 25°C (77°F), will only be good for 5 years if operated at 33°C (95°F).


so the "technology" you are talking about should be how to slow or insulate heat to the battery. Technically i dont care what brand its, every year about the same time, i swap the battery, i dont want to take the risk of unable to start my car when i urgently need to use it. maybe it can tahan for another few months, but i just dont want the risk, not worth it.

Hi, so my car battery need to be replace this month. I google around and stumbled with this 4S Professional battery. Im amazed with the 24 months warranty.

Initially i wanted to try the amaron pro, but after i saw this brand my hand itchy to try since the CCA of this battery higher than other and 2 years warranty.

Anyone in /k have any experience with this brand?

Based on my experience, I would not recommend 4s Professional Car battery. The battery just died without any indication after 1.5 years. For warranty, you'll need to sent it to their office in Setia Alam. The warranty process are pretty manual. You'll need to produce original Invoice for Lazada or Shopee with Warranty Card in order to make a warranty claim. If you have misplaced the invoice, your warranty will not be entertained. Just imagine if you have just use it for few months and misplaced your invoice, you'll need to buy a new battery. They don't bother to check their system or assist to reissue invoices. Standard response, no invoice or warranty card, no warranty.

I had similar experience. The battery just died after 1 year and 4S Professional made it difficult to claim and forced to bring it to tribunal.
