On this DNA250 that I'm having problem's with I thought I'd open it up and charge it to find out if the heat was coming from the battery. It is not. The heat is coming off the two large inductors. I guess I'll put in a new board then attempt to RMA it.

You should consider your self Lucky! I had a DNA75 burn up like that & it took out the whole mod with it! You just need a new board :)

RMA's are getting harder to get from Evolv these Days, Good Luck with that!

I'm hoping that they think I'm "special"........but highly doubt it. Most likely they don't even know of my involvement .

Did it overheat while charging?
No, it was an 18650 mod,(Charged Externally) those 2 big things IDK what they are? They burned up & melted my mod :( The burnt plastic smell was so bad that the whole mod was Toast!

Oh yes, the two large inductors just like dwcraig1. Maybe dwcraig1's had nothing wrong with his BMIC after all, because yours didn't even have USB power.
