Returns

Our extensive quality control means that our products are thoroughly tested and ultra-reliable by industry standards. Our 12-month warranty is industry leading as many other brands only offer a 30 or 60-day warranty.

All products are warranted to work as described on arrival and for the warranty period. If there is a warranty/returns claim it will be assessed by Black Hawk Electric and repaired under warranty. Black Hawk Electric products can only be assessed by Black Hawk Electric. Black Hawk Electric is not liable for any unauthorized repairs to or inspections of our products.

Customers are entitled to a refund if the product has a major fault. This can only be assessed by Black Hawk Electric. Once the product has been returned, if there is a minor fault that is easily repaired, it will be repaired in a timely fashion and the product will be sent back to the customer at Black Hawk Electric's cost.

Why don’t we offer free returns?

We do not accept returns for change of mind. In our line or products, unless the item is majorly damaged or defective upon arrival, we’re not able to offer returns for a refund because there is a moderate risk of damage in transit once the goods have been taken out of the carton by the customer.

We accept a certain level of risk each time we ship out one of our electric vehicle products and unfortunately the courier accepts nil responsibility. If something is damaged in return freight, essentially we may have cost ourselves the value of the write-off if someone has simply changed their mind, or didn’t read the item description before purchase.

Do you offer a free trial?

We do not offer free trials. Companies that offer free trials will often sell stock that's been reconditioned after trial periods, like brand new. For this reason, all our products are brand new and unused when purchased. When you buy a Black Hawk Electric product, you’re buying a 100% new, unused product.

Warranty Returns

In special instances where Black Hawk Electric has authorized the return for a product for fault inspection, Black Hawk Electric will book the pickup order with our courier. After booking the courier, Black Hawk Electric is not responsible for breakdowns in service of the courier, due to any reason. Some of these reasons arise then the customer is not home and the courier refuses to pick the item up. Most couriers have to abide by there own internal safe practices act by not taking responsibility for a parcel unless the correct paperwork has been signed on pickup by the customer. Black Hawk Electric will go to all reasonable lengths to ensure a smooth, problem-free pickup but as we are not the courier, we cannot always guarantee timing will work within a customer’s schedule. Once the item is picked up the customer must, under all circumstances, retain a copy of the consignment note, otherwise neither the courier nor Black Hawk Electric is responsible for the safe delivery back to Black Hawk Electric service center. The customer agrees that when shipping an item back to Black Hawk Electric, whether by their own means or by courier, Black Hawk Electric is not held responsible for any damage in return freight back to Black Hawk Electric, or after repair when forwarded back to the customer. By returning the item to Black Hawk Electric the customer agrees to the above.
