Without it, the board cannot smooth the current spikes that occur during transitions in Cycle mode (alternating charge\/discharge). As a result, repeated voltage surges can damage components, even causing a short circuit or completely burning out the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe warning sign to watch for: a “soft reset” of the device just before or during a Cycle mode transition. If this happens to you, it means the board is under stress and you need to act quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat to do right away:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStop using Cycle mode until you have checked your device.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you absolutely must keep using it in the meantime, set a 1-minute delay in the Cycle mode settings. This reduces the power spike responsible for the problem, as a temporary solution only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIf you are not comfortable with soldering, it is better to have this repair done by an experienced person and choose this service rather than risk damaging the board further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnce your order is placed, you will receive an email telling you which address to send the charger(s) to.
