Ok I have the ti8100 board, I followed the schematics and have built one before and worked fine. I am using a 200ohm pot, 220 resistor, 2 tantalum caps rated at 100uf 16v. I checked all soldering, continuity, checked the switch, and wiring. Its all right ( obviously something is wrong ) I tested the power input all the wat to the board, checked all grounds, but there is no power comming out of the board. I tested all the wiring/ soldering and even at the board there is nothing. For battys I am using 2x 14500 fully charged. I am guessing the board is bad. I know when soldering if it gets to hot it can cause damage so I learned to be very careful. Any Ideas???? Think its the board??? I have never had probs with ti boards. Its driving me nuts, Has anyone had a prob like this and I am missing something?? Thanks guys.....Oh I think I double posted, sorry if I did.
