Since this is the 2nd or 3rd such thread in the past year, I suspect they have disbanded.
(This would not surprise an ex-sponsor here who personally told me their too-generous warranty promise was not sustainable.) Too bad - they were good guys who really wanted to provide great service.

One of the converter sponsors likely can restall your converter for a modest charge.

Pretty good! We can put it in the line up first thing in the morning and have it done by the end of the day.
