LaMetric hardware 1 year limited warranty

What is covered?

Smart Atoms Limited ("Company") warrants to the original purchaser ("Customer") who bought LaMetric product (the "Product") from authorized resellers that the Product will be free from defects in material and workmanship (the “Warranty”) for a period of one (1) year from the original purchase date (“Limited Warranty Period”). Resellers, who have a distribution agreement signed might have different limited warranty period and Company obligations regarding warranty which are indicated in the distribution agreement, however below terms should apply for identifying whether the product is defective. This Warranty applies to the hardware Product only, not software. The determination of whether the Product returned to Company satisfies the conditions of this Warranty shall be made by Company in its sole discretion. Company's only obligations under this Warranty, and Customer’s sole remedy for breach of this Warranty, are limited to repair of any part or parts of the Product that prove to be defective during the Limited Warranty Period using new or refurbished replacement parts or, in Company’s sole discretion, replacement of such Product with Product that is new or which has been manufactured from new or serviceable used parts and is at least functionally equivalent to the original Product.  In addition, Company may, in its sole discretion, provide a partial refund(excluding taxes and shipping costs) for a defective Product in lieu of any repair or replacement based on the number of months left to the end of the warranty.

The company may request that the Customer replaces defective parts with new or refurbished user-installable parts that the Company provides in fulfillment of its warranty obligation.

When a product or part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes Customer property and the replaced item becomes Company's property.

Filing a warranty claim

All Warranty claims must be made by e-mailing [email protected] (and including in the subject line: Warranty Claim). Customer must obtain a RMA from Company. All Products must be returned to Company Designated Address in connection with the RMA, freight prepaid, in either its original packaging or packaging providing an equal degree of protection with the original or copy of a sales receipt for the returned Product prior to the expiration of the Limited Warranty Period. Incomplete returns will not be accepted.

Company will evaluate your claim to determine, in its sole discretion, whether the returned Product is covered under this Warranty.
