Hi Lifter01,

The guarantee on the BYD battery isnt just that the battery will last for 8 years/10,000 hours but that it will be operating at at least 65% of its original capacity after 8years/10,000hrs. In fact in our experience that is on the low side, most of the tests and simulations we have run show the battery operating at 75%+ after 4,000 cycles (a lead acid battery is usually dead after 1500-1800 cycles). Paired with the speed it charges at and the option of opportune charging there should be no reason why the forklift isnt still meeting its needs 10-15 years down the line.

I appreciate that for all the claims, the proof is in the pudding so if you ever want to see it in action, we would be happy to give you a free trial for a few weeks.

Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
