Refund Policy for Pre-order
All pre-order payments and orders that have not shipped are eligible for a refund. Email [email protected] with your order number and "REFUND" in the email header. If the order is a pre-order or has not shipped out, your refund will be processed. If the order has shipped out of our facilities, the 30-day Product Return Policy will apply.
30-Day Product Return Policy
United Chargers will accept returns within 30 days from purchase in the original box only. In order to return the product, contact [email protected]. United Chargers does not accept returns of units that have been opened, installed, or used.
To receive a refund for an unused unit, the customer must contact United Chargers and send the charger to our facilities at their expense. A restocking fee of 25% of the original purchase price will be applied to products that are returned within the 30-day return policy. The refund will be the MSRP of the charging station minus the 25% Restocking fee. The refund will be processed after the unit has been received and inspected.

This warranty will not apply if the product has been misused, abused, or altered. The warranty does not cover cosmetic damage such as scratches, dents, or normal aging. The warranty does not cover damage as a result of an extreme power surge, extreme electromagnetic field, or any acts of nature.

The warranty claimant must produce the original purchase invoice, including the date of purchase, from United Chargers or an authorized reseller. Only the original purchaser of the charging station is eligible to receive warranty services.
If United Chargers determines that the unit is defective, the defect is covered under the Warranty, and the Warranty for the charging station is still in effect, a replacement charger will be provided.
United Chargers will provide a return shipping label for you to ship the defective unit back to our facilities. The defective charging station must be returned in its original shipping box or in another shipping container designed to prevent damage to the charging station. United Chargers will verify and inspect the returned unit.
After the defective unit has been received, a replacement charger of the same model number will be sent to your shipping address. United Chargers will cover shipping expenses for the replacement unit. Warranty claims submitted within 60 days from purchase will be replaced with a new unit. Warranty claims submitted after 60 days will be replaced with a refurbished unit.
Alternatively, a replacement unit can be purchased before shipping back the defective unit. The replacement unit must be purchased from the Grizzl-E Web Store and must be the equivalent of the defective unit. The customer will pay the MSRP and Shipping costs of the Replacement Charger and ship the defective unit back to United Chargers facilities. After the defective unit is received, the cost of the replacement and shipping will be fully refunded to the customer. It is the responsibility of the customer to purchase the equivalent unit. If the defective unit is over 60 days old, the refund will be for the equivalent of a refurbished unit. United Chargers will not refund the difference for new units or upgrades.
One replacement policy
United Chargers will not provide multiple replacements to fix a recurring error. If the replacement charger incurs the same error as the original that was replaced, United Chargers will provide a shipping label for the second unit and issue a refund once the unit is received at our facilities. United Chargers agents will make the final determination as to whether the error is recurring or separate from the original error.
Grizzl-E Post Warranty Service
After expiration of the warranty period (1, 3, or 5 years after the date of purchase) United Chargers offers customers Post Warranty Service.
If the charger malfunctions after the Warranty Period has expired United Chargers will provide maintenance and repair for a fee. The Post Warranty Service includes a replacement Circuit Board, installation, and shipping for a fee of $250 for Grizzl-E Classic and Smart and $500 for Duo. United Chargers will provide shipping labels, install a new Circuit Board, and test the station for functionality. If the input or output cables do not pass quality inspection during repairs, we will advise the customer and an additional fee will be added. The repaired Charging Station will have a 1-year warranty.
Fill out the Technical Support form. If United Chargers determines the unit is qualified and if the technical issue can be resolved with Post Warranty Service, an invoice will be sent to your email address.
