Dead Ecotech Radion fan

Reef-Geek · #1 06-29-2013, 11:26 PM

Hi, guys

both of my radion fans just died on me, I am in Vancouver and I bought the lights online in AB, I wonder anyone in Vancouver know where I can get the light fixed? or even better if you know how to fix it.

Thanks

Are they still under warranty? If not you should be ale to find the same size fan from NCIX or Tiger Direct

yah if they're not under warranty I think Ecotech's answer is to charge you for a new light puck. Since their new power supplies are like 300 bucks (I recently had to swallow replacing one of those out of warranty), I can't imagine that a new light puck will be very reasonable.

Check with AquaDigital though, Ecotech might actually have a more affordable way of replacing out of warranty burnt out fans

Contact either Aqua-digital or RW,if the fixture is still under warranty,then they should be able to help you out..

They are still under warranty, however I need to pay shipping to Alberta from BC and I want it done quickly, so the shipping would be like 30-50 bucks.

I disassembled the light and it's looks like the fan is glued on, not sure if I can replace it myself.

yep, purchased on Nov 2011

The problem is I don't want wait till Tuesday to ship out my light and then it may take another 3-4 days to get the light back, I wonder if anyone in Van can do the fan replacement
