We were not content with business as usual. It seems wasteful to throw away a cartridge every 3 or 4 months, so why not make one that lasts longer? The Scepter2 is designed for a minimum lifespan of 1 year. Because of constant inquiries, we decided to release it now with a 6 month warranty and bump it up to 1 year after more time in the field. On paper, it should last longer than 1 year and we have several in the field being tested by real hot tub owners, so far, with good success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Scepter2 works in Hot Spring® and Caldera® spas with the top-side Freshwater® salt system cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the Scepter2 different from the OEM \u0026amp; cheap cartridges found on Amazon \u0026amp; eBay?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in USA from US components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS tech support via phone, text \u0026amp; email\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate material rated for 10K hours instead of 3K hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull 6 month warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree USPS Priority Mail 2-3 day shipping.

After 8 years of replacing ACE cells, we have learned a lot about the ACE system design and how it works. The Freshwater Salt System is similar with a few changes. We have made The Scepter to perform better by using a different plate design and high quality plate coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e60 day satisfaction \u0026amp; 6 month full replacement warranty – not pro-rated.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree USA Priority Mail 3-4 day shipping.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the OEM \u0026amp; cheap knock-offs, the Scepter2 cartridge is designed to last longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperience shows us that as the cell wears, it often indicates a low salt level.
