Tadao boards have a lifetime warranty,just e-mail them at tadao and ask them to check it out when it arrives for flashing,turnaround was less than 2 weeks for mine.yer i have to change the board when i play tournys back to my stock ul board, and it kinda winds me up but, i know it isnt going to cost me an arm and a leg for it to be chipped so i may aswell get it. i have a problem with the ul board picking up my eyes thinks its a bad connection, ive replaced the eyes with new ones still doing the same thing. but the tadao picks them up. i think it be cheaper to chip the tadao rather than the ul board ?
