The Lifetime of the Product is 10 years (hereafter referred to as Product Warranty).
TrickleStar warrants to the original purchaser that for the Product Warranty it shall be 

free of defects in design, assembly, material, or workmanship and will repair or 

replace, at its option, any defective product free of charge.

TrickleStar will repair or replace, at its option, any devices which are damaged by a 

transient voltage surge/spike or lightning strike (an “Occurrence”) while properly 

connected through the Product to a properly-wired AC power line with protective 

grounding.
If applicable, the telephone line and/or network line must be properly connected and 

installed, and the antenna cable line must also be properly connected and installed 

as determined by TrickleStar at its sole discretion.
This Connected Device Warranty is a limited warranty, subject to the limitations and 

exclusions set forth herein. TrickleStar will spend to repair or replace the damaged 

connected equipment, at TrickleStar’s option, an amount equal to the fair market 

value of the damaged equipment or the original purchase price of the equipment, 

whichever is less, up to the maximum amount of $100,000.
TrickleStar reserves the right to review the damaged Product, the damaged devices, 

and the site where the damage occurred. All costs of shipping the Product and the 

damaged devices to TrickleStar for inspection shall be borne solely by the 

purchaser. TrickleStar reserves the right to negotiate the cost of repairs. If 

TrickleStar determines, in its sole discretion, that it is impractical to ship the 

damaged devices to TrickleStar, TrickleStar may designate, in its sole discretion, a 

repair facility to inspect and estimate the cost to repair such devices. The cost, if 

any, of shipping the devices to and from such repair facility shall be borne solely by 

the purchaser.
Damaged Product and connected devices must remain available for inspection until 

the claim is finalized. The site or location of damage must remain unchanged and 

available for inspection until inspected by TrickleStar or agents of TrickleStar.  

Whenever claims are settled, TrickleStar reserves the right to be subrogated under 

any existing insurance policies the claimant may have. All above warranties are null 

and void if:
  • The Product in use during the occurrence was not provided to TrickleStar for 

inspection upon TrickleStar’s request at the sole expense of the purchaser.

  • TrickleStar determines that the Product has not been installed in accordance 

with  the Installation Requirements, or altered in any way.

  • TrickleStar determines that the damage did not result from  the Occurrence, or 

that no occurrence in fact took place, or that the repair or replacement of the 

damaged devices is covered under a manufacturer’s warranty. 

  • TrickleStar determines that the connected devices were not  used under normal 

operating conditions or in accordance with any labels or instructions.

  • The Product was not plugged directly into a grounded outlet receptacle. 
  • The Product is “daisy-chained” together in serial fashion with other power strips, 

UPS devices, other surge protectors, or extension cords.

  • A three-to-two-prong adapter was used.
  • The Product was not used indoors.

Making a Warranty Claim

Copyright and Disclaimer

This Product is not for use with aquariums and all other water-related products. Use 

only indoors and in dry locations. The Connected Device Warranty only protects 

against damage to properly-connected devices where TrickleStar has determined, in 

its sole discretion, that the damage resulted from an Occurrence, and does not 

protect against acts of God (other than lightning) such as flood, earthquake, war, 

vandalism, theft, normal-use wear and tear, erosion, depletion, obsolescence, 

abuse, damage due to low voltage disturbances (i.e. brownouts or sags), 

non-authorized program, or device modification or alteration. This is the sole 

warranty of TrickleStar; there are no other warranties, expressed or, except as 

required by law, implied, including the implied warranty or condition of quality, 

merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, and such implied warranties, if 

any, are limited in duration to the term of this warranty. Some states do not allow 

limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not 

apply to you.
In no event shall TrickleStar be liable for incidental, special, direct, indirect, 

consequential or multiple damages such as, but not limited to, lost business or 

profits arising out of the sale or use of any Product even if advised of the possibility 

of such damages. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also 

have other rights, which may vary from state to state. Some states do not allow the 

exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damage, so the above 

limitations may not apply to you.
This warranty is valid only for the original purchaser of the product. All damage 

claims against the product must be made within 30 days from the date of the 

Occurrence and must be accompanied by a receipt for the damaged devices, or the 

warranty is void.
Warranty is valid in the United States and Canada.
