Don't think he's got a shop front at the moment, best thing is to give him a call.

If that was said I wouldn't touch there products again as a matter of principle. Think it time for you to go BLUE and get LRP with lifetime warrentys.

Whilst the LRP warranty is the best out there, it still has conditions that need to be followed.

warranty doesn’t cover defects, which are a result of normal wear, misuse or improper maintenance. This
applies among other things on:
• Cut off original power plug or not using reverse polarity protected plugs
• Receiver wire and/or switch wire damaged
• Mechanical damage of the case
• Humidity/Water inside the speed control
• Mechanical damage of electronical components/PCB
• Soldered on the PCB (except on external solder-tabs)
• Connected speed-control with reversed polarity

it was bought from a uk ebayer and it does say water resistant on the box so i think water damage should covered or its a blatent case of false advertising so why make claims of a products performance then abuse the customer

I'm surprised it says waterproof on the box as I've never seen it in any of there literature, that's weird!

BERT: Would you have prefered CML to have asked you to send the unit back (at your cost) then send it back to Novak for them to look at then when they come back weeks later and say "warrenty is void because it's got wet" OR CML rep says "TBH your novak warrenty is void as it's got wet" saving you weeks or even months of sitting on your thumbs with no speedo ???

The reps know there suppliers and know what they will or will not replace. And it's not exactly CML's policy that has stung you. I think boycotting CML is a bit of an over reaction really. I know a guy at our club who had a Checkpoint motor replaced recently because the bearing holder in the enbell was faulty, they replaced the whole motor, no messing.

its not the first occasion this has happened to my knowledge two previous occasions not myself where novak products have failed and customers being told where to go. one being a friend of mine and another being a midwest driver who had to approach trading standards to solve the issue i am not prepared to go that far as i have no faith in the product and to be told to f off was not professional i konw it was out of work hours so i will not say who it was but if i told my customers to go away even out of time i would be not giving a good impression this is not a whinge but other companys will at least be courtious

Chances are that it didn't come from CML in that case.
All warranty returns need to be accompanied with proof of purchase from an authorised CML dealer.

it was bought within the uk but original supplier not known as it was bought off a member of this site but as a authorised dealer a simple sorry mate you got to contact novak direct would have sufficed.i have no gripe with lhs you are as much victims as the punters nosram or lrp dont do this and cheers dom you where right when asked you.

Weather Report!

Looks like the weather might be pretty bad this weekend! What happens in case of the track being flooded on the Sunday? Would this mean the meeting have to be re-scheduled?
