Solarbatt Pty Ltd sells batteries on a website that can be used for generating electric power when camping. They have offices in the United States and Australia.

Harry from Canada is on a tour around Australia and buys a Solarbatt battery online through the US website when he is at an internet caf in Sydney.

He receives the battery at a friend's address in Sydney and then heads off for a three-month tour around Australia. While he is camping in the second week of his trip, the battery overheats starting a fire, which destroys his vehicle.

  1. Are there any provisions of the ACL that Harry could use to recover compensation for the damage to his vehicle?
  2. Are there any similar cases to assist your argument?
  3. To get a replacement battery what sections of the ACL could Harry rely on?

What location would the contract to purchase the Solarbatt battery be considered to be according to provisions of the Electronic Transactions amendment Act 2011? Could that affect your answer
