Question about repair
Ive got a laser 6 I need to send in due to buying a battery with reversed leads. So battery was plugged in backwards and now it does nothing, so I am planning on sending it in, my only question is how much would it be to fix, and I dont have a credit card, so would it be possible to just send enough cash in the box to cover it? I believe its under warranty but I dont have a receipt so im assuming im s.o.l on that one. Any help would be appriciated

RE: Question about repair
Go ahead and send it in. Hitec will evaluate it and give you a call telling you the cost, if any if it's still under warranty. Then you can send them a postal money order for the exact amount. They often don't charge for repairs, the're pretty good that way.

RE: Question about repair
would it be a good idea to put like a 20 in there if I don't want to wait for them to tell me the price and then wait for them to get the cash? I imagine I have to pay for return shipping.

Hitec Warranty & Service
Service Form
If battery was advertised and sold with a genuine Hitec plug but with reversed leads, then should not any claim for reimbursement and repair cost be lodged with retailer from whom defective pack was purchased?

RE: Question about repair
Depending on how severe the damage to the radio is by the reversed polarity of the battery it could be anywhere from $15- $50. We wont know until we check it out.
