Hi Scott,
If you still have an application for your Re-e-Power motor, send me the pod and brushed controller. I'll donate a brushless dc motor and controller fit into your housing. Thunderstruck gets your controller for a high school donor. You'll need a prop, which Dave at Silent Running Systems can help you source. Your motor will be built to match your boat's spec's and the prop's dynamics.
Accordingly, Re-e-power will not need to worry about a refund. I'm not a competitor with Re-e-Power, and I believe it is in the best interest of this fledgling US industry to advance our condition through cooperation and mutual support, rather than dog-eat-dog in the manner of business as usual. We are all facing some measure of impact during this economic slump, some more than others. I believe the years of experience in the engineering of the pod system makes it ultimately more attractive to boats without existing inboard drive systems.
Be Well,
Arby

> On 5/3/09 I sent RE-E-POWER.com $3,459 for EPod 2000 and later an additional $210.00. He promised to ship in 4 weeks. After numerous inquires about my unit and when it would ship, I sent Kevin an email the morning of 6/24/09 and asked for a refund. After all of his broken promises about shipping, I figured he would never ship me a unit. He shipped on 8/24/09 AFTER I requested a refund and AFTER I requested that he NOT ship. What arrived was unbelievable, the unit had a large scratch on the side, rust on the mounting post holes and WATER INSIDE the unit! It was missing the prop, two other parts and the instruction/
> I immediately shipped the partial used unit back and have been trying to get a refund through my credit card company and PayPal. I have requested a refund (any refund) from Kevin. He replied that he had $270 in his bank account. I asked for a partial refund and I said I would work with him on a payment plan. No response until today, when I gave him one last chance to act like a responsible businessman. He said "I fully intend to work something out with you" but I have received no money or payment plan.
> I plan to continue to work to get my money back, and will use the court system if needed. I also expect RE-E-POWER to go out of business soon.
> You can choose to do business with Kevin Plank and RE-E-POWER.com but you now do so with full knowledge of his business practices.
> I inquired on this forum about RE-E-POWER.com and no one warned me, I feel an obligation to tell everyone the truth about RE-E-POWER.com.
