split0101:If you bought from a authorized LDS then you would have gotten a "5 year (pro-rated)" limited warranty. Basically what that means is if you would have to pay 50% of the cost for fixing/replacing the unit (most likely replacing). Some things are worth getting a warranty for especially when they cost $$$.
Sounds to me like LP may not be honoring the warrenty they are advertising. I suggest the OP go back to them with a copy of this warrenty and see why they are refusing warrenty service. But I would not be surprised if it has something to do with an AL USA warrenty wihich this link seems to show and any AL international warrenty which LP may be going by.
Still, it is my impression that warrenties on reliable scuba equipment are rarely worth the extra cost that accompany them. In the long run, I know I have saved a substantial amount by accepting the risks associated with not paying for expensive mfgr warrenties. YMMV
