Same here.

I have had hard luck finding a company that will cover the collateral damage from catastrophic failure of their own part or poor work.

Hopefully your experience will be different.

Hey guys, the converter is on it's way back to Precision in TN, shipped it today and UPS says they should have it by Wednesday. So now it is a waiting game. The return form said they would call me when they receive it. I'll keep you guys posted.

OK guys, the converter was delivered at Precision today @ 1:10 this afternoon, so now we will see how long it takes for them to call me. The note on the return sheet says that they will call me when the open the box to check it out and let me know what they are going to do with it. Keep ya's posted..
