NO MORE LRP WARRANTY

[blue_pinky]

Warranties are not about how long the product will last, it is just about how long the manufacturer has chosen to support a product from developing problems due to manufacturing defects during it's life.

The new LRP esc's will not suddenly implode on themselves after 2 years....they, like ALL other products, will most likely keep working completely fine for as long as they kept in good condition and not abused.

LRP were very brave to offer a 25 year warranty from the beginning IMO. RC is a very abusive environment for electrics to work in, and with increased popularity, increased power, ever developing technology and numbers of product out in the field, it's no wonder that they are reducing their warranties (and consequently their own company running costs) to 2 years...more in line with rest of their competitors!!!

If electronic components are running close to their limits then they will degrade over time and eventually fail, but then perhaps they shouldn't be running close to their limits

The comp spec LRP stuff does have a warranty (a very good one at that - far better than "most" other brands I might add) its just not 25 years any more on the top end stuff....

As for ditching an LRP for a superior Tekin, not too sure about that, I think results speak for themsleves really

Sure they do. Heat cycles will take their toll eventually.

I dont see the big fuss, most people change there gear after a year or two anyway, cos it goes out of fashion or is replaced by something better. Apart from me who still uses a 10 year old nosram speedo!
