Yeah, these things are best organised locally, or for low postal fees of course.. nice to hear you guys have something in the US too.
As for the usage on the PCC.. well that's the bizar thing.. i used it VERY heavy for a couple of months, it was constantly hanging on a USB feed during business hours, only to leave it when I went outside, shopping etc. but then in the car, back to USB charger, at home back on the wall socket etc.
Oh and I was using 4 sticks in the unit constantly swapping (yes.. incase you're wondering too.. I still don't know how I managed in retrospect, it's soooo obvious I clearly needed something larger, but back then I was very much focussed on getting away with vaping in places no longer allowed by the tabacco law's in the Netherlands - and the eroll was the 'prettiest' solution, always good for a friendly chat with a restaurant owner etc.
SO.. did I overload the PCC.. i'm guessing yes.. but it was working fully normal when I put it into the cupboard as far as I remember.
Now the PCC does not load at all, hook it to a charger and it immediately goes green, put a stick in and it goes into red/blue loading (and stays like this for hours.. I think 12-13 hours is what I had it in before deciding "ok, this is enough".)
After this huge long charge, it only charged the 1 stick enough to last about 10-15% of it's normal charge.
The soldering should be easy (i'm able to solder a lot smaller then these leads, so piece of cake),
but if replacing the battery does not do the trick, i'm not able to investigate further.
Lets keep fingers crossed and as said, i'll make some shots of it.. VERY curious to actually see if replacing the battery will do it..
so that's only a few weeks to wait on delivery from china.. and the next sunday i'll take the time to do the build
If there's anything else you'de like me to try when i'm opening the box, let me know.
As said, micro soldering etc. is no challenge, i've done various gameconsole repairs in the past, but you will need to specify any materials
