Gonna add my kudos. They've always responded very quickly, and as their warranty states, they never even bitch when it's probably (okay, definitely) the locomotive manufacturer's fault that the decoder blew up. Maybe once or twice I might have screwed up too, but again no hassles and no complaints. They even thanked me on one case for the detailed description of the problem and the steps I'd taken to diagnose it, said it made their life easier. Their turnaround when you send in warranty repairs and replacements is quite good also. I like the way their decoders work, and when you factor in their service I won't even think about going with another brand, even when the only way I can get a unit I want is with a decoder that I'll end up replacing. BTW, anybody want some Lenz decoders cheap? ;-)
