Well in between changing tanks to check for leaks my ebolt managed to crap out somehow. I checked for electrical current and there's nothing going into the board. The thing that stumped my though was the led I had added a while back that shows me when its on or not wasn't lit. I've added a led and extended the wire for the battery, but it worked fine until this incident. Tippmann should still fix it right? I tried calling them but they're closed... What do you guys think? |

Well technically you altered their product, so the warranty is void.
But it is Tippmann after all, so you've still got a good chance of
having them fix it.

Is the LED connected in series with the battery to the board or is it in parallel with a resistor? I would try removing the LED from the circuit completely and restore the wiring to original configuration. Check to make sure that one of the wires to the battery has not broken internally (inside the insulation) Also check the solder joints at the switch, at the battery connector and where those wires connect to the board. If you decide to return the E-Bolt to Tippmann there may be a charge for fixing an altered part, but Tippmann is amazingly good about standing behind their products. |
