Battery Varta or Bosch

Varta Battery

Adding my experience here for others that may stumble upon the thread. I was having really bad+inconsistent battery life with my left and then right buds, where they would die in less than hour. I replaced the both earbuds original batteries with the Varta CP1254 A3 battery and also did a hard reset.

It took a little over an hour to do and finally the battery life is decent again. I was able to run them for a good 3 hours on noise canceling with max quality settings and it's a night-and-day difference.

Pros: decent battery life
Cons: bad battery life

I've had some good luck with OEM Vw therye where either Varta or another OEM factory battery. 7 years on one...and also 3 years till 50%, lots of variables, to make a battery last or not last.

Pros: good luck, long lasting

I just now successfully replaced the battery with a varta cp1254 a4 due to the right one going bad after a year of use, testing it for a few hours now and it worked!

Pros: worked for few hours
Cons: right one going bad

I've been using the varta cp1254 a3 (60mAh) in my left earbud for about a month. The difference is very small (less than 10%). From full charge to low battery warning, varta 20%, zenipower 25+%.

Pros: small difference in performance
Cons: slightly less battery life
Part number: CP1254 A3

I've put my trust in Varta. Previously had Bosch. I think you can put your trust in pretty much any brand if its covered by a 2-year warranty.

Pros: trust in Varta

We needed to replace the original German Varta battery in our '14 A4 (date code Jun '13) after the first polar vortex in early '19. OE list was $227 (non AGM), discounted to about $195 at the local Audi parts counter. Advance Auto had an equivalent H9 for about $170, but the local store only had one with a late '16 date code (and proper BEM sticker). So they sold it to me as a \"used battery\" (after running their condition test and passing) to me for $45 + tax. Two years later, so far, so good.

Pros: so far, so good
Vehicle: Audi A4

I took the hit and got a Varta, been perfect since! It’s a second car that is often left for 3 weeks or more and I get a perfect start every time with the Varta battery.

Pros: perfect start every time

I find that the Bosch batteries I regularly sell last 5-7 years or 5-7 months.

Pros: recognized brand
Cons: variable lifespan

It was a Varta battery. And dial a battery and car guru provide similar services right? And I only talked about battery prices as the service to come to my place was provided via insurance. Secondly yes I accepted it as I had to go out in a hurry but in my opinion they seem to be expensive when directly compared to their competitors.

Cons: expensive compared to competitors
