My Estim 2B Powerbox have a problem

Post by Lakagigar »

Hello there o/

As the title says, I have got a problem with my Estim 2B Powerbox. The issue is that 'Channel B' just stopped to deliver out a signal / current. 'Channel B' started to be unstable and was cutting out the signal / current here and there under use for some hours some few days ago. Then it suddenly worked fine for about half a day after being unstable for those few hours before it just died out completely. And I have tried 'Channel B' with different cables to, so the cables are not the issue.

'Channel A' is working fine though.

No idea on what it can be. I think there is a tiny bit unnormal smell from the device, so maybe a capacitor have gone bust?

Now, I have contacted the shop where I bought the powerbox from and they are taking care of the warranty. They say they will send the powerbox to the manufacturer (Estim) to have it repaired. I have had the device for a little over a year by now.

I know there is a lifetime warranty on the device, so i'll guess it will be sorted anyways. And should I only send the powerbox alone back, or should I include everything that came in the powerbox package?

Anyone else experienced anything similar?

You could if you wish contact the support team directly at info@e-stim.co.uk, but generally they only want the powerbox sent back.

My 2B Powerbox was sent to E-Stim for repair a little while ago. But they couldn't fix it, so I will get a new one instead :)

Yeah, their warranty shows that they know how to make a good product and cares about their customers. It was just that I was unlucky with mine.

Got my new 2B Powerbox a little earlier today :) .

EDIT: And now I have taken it for a test run. It works perfect.

I can also say how good their customer support is. Mine unit was fix and dispatched back to me the same day they received it.

Just got my box, but something inside is loose. When shaked, it's rattling. Is that normal?
