PurePowerAPS Canada concern


I've had a new PurePower APS 2000+ unit for just over 5 months and recently the battery will not charge. After Damian of PurePowerAPS helped diagnose the problem they said they would do a call pick-up to send back to the factory in Canada for repair. Here is his reply...

Hi Steve,

If you get no voltage reading from the Regenerator unit's Power Pack connector when it is plugged in and the breaker is in the on postion, it will almost certainly be a charger issue or charger interconnect wire contact problem inside the Regenerator unit.

I can supply a prepaid UPS waybill for a return trip and have it checked, corrected, tested, and back out the door in 24 hours. When you receive it you can re-attach the Power Pack and it will fully re-charge the batteries over a 12 hour period.

Let me know if I should use the address information we have on file and when to schedule pickup. If you prefer we can also just send the prepaid waybill to your email and you can either arrange a pickup at your convenience or drop the package off at any UPS location.

Thanks,
Damian.

So this was late October and ever since PP now does not return emails or phone calls. Very disappointed in how they treat customers and would made sure everyone knows before buying a PP unit. Maybe they are out of business but I had many emails back and forth until it was ready to be shipped back for repair.

If this situation changes I will post an update.

Vick my point exactly. You hear of the many problems with PurePower but with other companies very rarely if at all. (If other companies have problems and I'm sure most have some QA problems, im assuming we don't hear from those b/c those companies take care of the issues). So why would I want to deal with PP and then IF I had a problem have the headaches others have had. Just doesn't make sense. I'm sure there are many satisfied PurePower owners around but enough have come forward that says to me "be concerned".
Update ~ my 2000+ has been repaired and is being shipped back now should have it early next week.
Thanks PP!
You lucky dog! So how come yours got repaired before mine? Mine went in sometime in July. I think I need to make a call again on Monday.

I think the trick for the quickest customer service is to start an Audiogon thread complaining about PurePower's customer service when handling a repair.
But, Sksos1 has not actually recieved his unit, has he? And when/if he does, will it work for the long run???

I tell you I was seriously considering one of Purepower units but after reading all of the bad news associated with that company I think I am going to buy the new Audience Teflon units instead.
