1. With effect from January 1st 2020 PowaKaddy International Limited (‘PowaKaddy’) of Castle Road, Sittingbourne, Kent ME10 3RN provides to the purchaser of any new PowaKaddy product (the ‘Product’) purchased from an authorised retailer in Australia a Manufacturer’s Limited Warranty against inherent defects for the period, and on the exclusions and conditions, set out hereafter:

1 Year 2 Years 3 Years 5 Years – Pro rata

*Extended Pro Rata warranties subject to registration within 30 days of purchase

– Battery Failure in Year 4: the customer receives a 30% discount off a new battery
– Battery Failure in Year 5: the customer receives a 15% discount off a new battery

2. The Warranty is subject to the following exclusions:

  • Accidental damage, customer misuse or neglect.
  • Fair wear and tear.
  • Rental or other commercial use.
  • Unauthorised modification to the Product.
  • Faulty repairs by consumer or unauthorised agent.
  • Failure to follow battery charging instructions, trying to use a battery for more than the intended amount of golf (18 holes for an 18 hole battery and up to 36 holes for the Extended Battery), including leaving a battery in a discharged state for prolonged periods.
  • The removal or defacing of serial numbers on the product will invalidate the warranty.
  • Standard Battery (Lithium): the battery is for 18 holes and must be fully charged. This can take up to 7 to 10 hours after the round. We are aware that some golfers will try to stretch these batteries to 27 holes, this may damage the overall capacity of the battery and may result in an early failure. Playing more than 18 holes with an 18-hole battery can seriously shorten the battery’s life and will invalidate the battery’s warranty. Extended Battery (Lithium): this can handle the occasional 36 holes and this is as much as you should use it for before fully charging it again for your next round. Regularly using the battery for two rounds of golf on consecutive days means that the battery cannot be fully re-charged in between and will damage the overall capacity of the battery, seriously shorten the battery’s life and will invalidate the battery’s warranty. If you regularly play two rounds of golf in one day, buy two batteries.
