I love AGD products a ton. I know they are good quality ,but I wish they would put more effort into making the connectors for the batterys on the Warp feed. I just spent 20 minutes soddering it back on. I burned my fingers doing so.

Anyone else hate the stupid battery connectors.

Your the stupid one. I only used the black Part to remove the batterys. I never touched the wires.

I'm sorry. It took you 20 minutes? It took me longer to take the damn thing apart than to solder it.

;) Sorry if it was a bit harsh, I had it made up for a different thread where people were being idiots about it. It only happened to me once about 2 years ago when I was 12 or so and diddnt know better to not pull on the wires..

Actually, the same thing happened to me...

I needed to resolder the wires onto the board. Still love AGD products though!

I broke mine off numerous times. If I hadn't sold it, I would of resoldered them with lots of solder and them put some jb weld around the base of the wires holding them together. I know a kid that did this and his have never broken off after that.

I hate to agree with this, and understand I love AGD, I own three AGD markers and two warps but the warp, well does not stand up to AGDs reputation of dependibality. I do not understand why it is not made for dual 9V and why it does not have a on-off switch to begin wtih. It just seems to me that they cut corners on it.

The fix for this is to put some hot glue around the wires on the backside of the board.

penguinpunk555: im not sure, but id think that the warp would be covered by a waranty. if so, you live in k-town, drive the 45 minutes to wheeling and have roman or jon fix it for you. ive made 2 trips there within the last 7 days for parts and fixes, and the service is awesome.
