Not sure if this is the right forum or not so please move it if it is not in the right place.
I was charging my istick30 when all of a sudden me and my boyfriend smelt this awful smell similar to fingernail polish remover. We looked everywhere and couldn't locate where the smell was coming from. I eventually gave up trying to locate it and went to grab my istick. It was so hot I immediately dropped it on my couch and it left a burn mark (thank goodness I just ordered a new couch that is scheduled to be delivered soon). I immediately unplugged it and realized the smell was coming from the istick. It was completely melted on the inside! I called the store I bought it from and was told to bring it in. They said they were not sure if it was the istick or the fact I was charging it using an old phone charger (which I was told when I bought the istick was fine to charge it with). They replaced the unit and gave me a free istick charger which was very kind considering I didn't have my receipt. I am really shook up over this. This could have been really bad and ended very badly. Just wanted to put the word out there and see if anyone else had had or heard of any similar issues.
