Hartenberger Lights / Torches
Here I am to tell you my experience with Hartenberger Torches Germany Customer Service and Repair Center.
I own a mini compact 96 torch model, it wont charge anymore so I send it to Hartenberger Germany for repair as I thought who else could better repair the torch than the Headquarters itself !
First of all, let me tell you is impossible to clearly communicte with them by email ! they are so arrogant and not willing to be clear or explain anything ! they dont like customers to ask too much !
Anyways I needed to repait my torch so I sent it to them for repair.
I have to recognize they were very fast to send me a repair estimate in very few days:
According to them it needed Cell Pack exchange since cells were broken and they may explode ! price euro 85 !
I asked them to do routine maintenance to the torch as for orings clean and greasing, it will be Euro; 20 not bad I have to recognize its very fair include pressure test.
According to them also the charger LG off-shore II was broken, they said the repair will cost Euro 95
All these prices need to add 19% VAT
When I sent the charger to them I checked it and it was supplying right current and voltage in the plug, then only problem was that the RCA plug was a bit unstable in the connection, when moved it will work properly so I asked to change the plug and they tell me the problem is the charger itself. I tried to ask more detailed explanation they will simply not answer with an automatic answering email saying to call them !
Their English in the emails is very poor, imagine they on the phone? Will cost me more to repair this torch !
Consider the new torch cost less than Euro 400 which is way too mcuh for such torch, there are much better torches on the market for much less price ! The whole repair according to them will cost me: Euro 240 !!!! way too mcuh for a not new torch, there is so much choice on the market for better torched, the problem was that I wanted to repair it instead of putting in on the garbage which I regret not doing 
Anyways after so many emails asking for more explanation on what was the charger repair for? Which they never answered. Can you believe a charger repair can cost euro 95 ?
After all I got the torched repaired, and they even forgot to send me back my old own bulb I tried to ask for it they said they had sent it even got upset I asked for it.
They really dont care at all about customers, they are so arrogant, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL OF YOU TO AVOID BUYING HARTENBERGER TORCHES, THEY ARE BAD TECHNICALLY, THEY ARE WAY TOO EXPENSIVE, THERE IS SO MUCH BETTER ON THE MARKER FOR LESS PRICE AND WORST OF ALL THEY POST SALES, CUSTOMER SERIVE AND REPAIR SERVICE ARE BADDDDDDDDDDDDDD
I hope this help avoid other divers get into trouble buyng Hartenberger products.
Sincerely,
Mario
