I got a Mares Abyss+Rebel Octopus approx. 1 year ago.
I worry the warranty card was never filled out and sent to Mares (bought in Europe).
Since the beginning the rebel blow more or less. I contacted Mares in Thailand (were I stay) and they fixed that for me without any questions without wanting any money or checking any warranty that was really nice.
But after 3 dives it was even worse. Anyway I think they will do it again for me, but now my questions:
What shall I do with the warranty: I think the shop sold the equipment without any VAT or invoice (but don't want to blame the shop, because else they were very helpfull)?
What shall I do that I don't have again and again problems with the rebel?
When searching for that problem I found a webpage telling horror-stories about the Abyss floating with water (what can be extrem dangerous if you get water instead of air in the regulator).
I spoke about that with a Mares shop and they told me thats past Mares fixed that problem already. But they did not tell me, when they fixed it? 2 Month ago or 2 years ago and if that is a problem for my Abyss (the 2005 model).
How can I find out if I face that problem or not. My local Mares shop does not speak well english (and I don't speak Thai).
Any idea/help would be nice!
