FakeTec v2 went up in smoke on update
So I had some Faketec nodes I had a friend put together for me. He had them updated previously up to 2.5.20
I just went to update it and all seemed fine I could find nodes no issue... During the update everything went fine until it went to reboot then suddenly POOF! Smoke came out of the NRF chip!?
As a side note I'm wondering if it has to do the with C to C cable I used with a PD charger?
Or maybe Because there wasn't a battery connected?
I checked and I didn't see any shorted pins or anything. Has anyone had this issue before?!
