Re: [colorvision_group] How long will a Spyder live?

>>Or better still, how do you revive a Spyder? Another dead one on my
hands! It seems that these things don't have a very long life. Are
they built for obsolescence or do you have experience of getting them
repaired at reasonbable cost? Where is the most cost effective repair
shop on the planet? Thanks

I hear about Spyder1 units still in use all the time. But if you have a 
unit that doesn't work, after the two year warranty expires, there 
really isn't an option to repair it, our calibration lab would be the 
only place equiped to recalibrate a Spyder after it was opened, and 
that service isn't offered. The prices are set low, and the warranty is 
set long. Beyond that, its a matter of replacement.
