Steve,

They do have a warranty date on a lot of them. Larry ran in to the same issue and ended up sending them a message about it. Within a few days, they sent him a new one free of charge. Unfortunately, that one broke as well!

I can tell you that I own three bait coolers. All of the areators worked without issue BUT... once you bump one, drop one, or ect.... they stop working! I beleive it is in the switch mechanism as I found some issues playing with the one I dropped. I will let you all know if I find a solution (IE a different switch) when I find time to screw with it.

In the mean time, as I seem to collect those things, I put a Frabil on mine as well! Just as Gary and Larry have done. Along with several others.
