So i pulled my marker out today to fully service it and found that the last walk-on wasn't too kind to my poor gun, Im down at paintfest and assuming you will be there to provide tech support so any help in the matter is greatly appreciated :( .

right the problem is that the harness that attaches to the battery broke away from the solder on the board and needs to be re-soldered with a new harness, i am hoping to not need a board replacement but if you have any how much will that set me back just incase?

Thanks in advance :)

Stoney possibly didn't see your post (Friday can be a little busy) i don't know off the top of my head about techs at paintfest but i doubt who ever is there would have soldering equipment with them, best bet would be to contact the customer service guys nick.t@planeteclipse.com or robert.p@planeteclipse.com or give them a call on Monday 9.30-6.00 and they will advise what to do, you are probably going to need to send either the board or the gun in so it can be looked at.

give cs a call on Monday and they will let you know the best plan of attack, could be you can send the board in to be looked at and collect it at paintfest. replacement boards will be available but no idea of the price sorry (i don't work on the cs/sales side)
