Cargol 302 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Just a heads up that the five year warranty that comes with the red box is a load of bollocks. Sent mine back to them because it was losing battery power. Iv had it 18 months. I rang today and was told there was a fault with the battery and needs replacing. £35 because the battery only has a 1 year warranty. So basically the five year warranty covers the rubber box itself and feck all else. I wouldn't mind if the things didn't cost a fortune in the first place but to start going wrong after 18 months and not be covered under warranty is an absolute joke. Robbing b*****ds!

Leggy65 36 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Need to send mine back got steal job to turn the box on or off!! Quote Link to post
Cargol 302 Posted April 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 I know a couple of lads that struggle turning them on and off. Have to use a stick or the end of the bar. I couldn't fault them or the box before today. 2 Quote Link to post
rob284 1,682 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 It doesnt help when lads charge them after every outing or when theyre only on half battery. You need to run a lithium ion battery near flat before charging or else youll end up with one that wont hold much charge. Its a bit misleading with the warranty only covering the box and not the battery. 1 Quote Link to post
HBG 350 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Lithium batteries have no memory or so I read somewhere so don't need to be ran flat,my box is getting difficult to switch on and off too,I'm gonna see about sending mine back to get sorted. 2 Quote Link to post

Cargol 302 Posted April 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 It makes no sense to put a five year warranty on a box when the main component only has a one year warranty. I'm probably a tight b*****d but if I pay £300+ for something. I expect it to last longer then 18 months. 1 Quote Link to post
