Anybody repairing these things? I over-volted the input side of my 106B+ which smoked some input FETs but it still beeps and the fan seems to try to spin. Just wondering if there's a decent repair solution or just grab another one?
 
No 240V, it's a DC input RC charger. I errored by connecting 6S pack (22-24VDC) to the 12-18VDC input and let smoke out. I opened it up enough to see a damaged input FET but no popped Caps. Sorry, didn't grab a photo. I already ordered a replacement - damn thing has really grown on me! Use it for all kinds of battery rework, rehab and maintenance.

Left it behind at my other home and won't be able to grab a photo for a couple weeks. It's not entirely fubar'd so maybe I can find the right folks and get it working again? Maybe try Chargery/HK - see if they can help?

Seems like some talented controller reworkers might be able to repair something like this? Or, it'll wind up in the trader section FREE for s/h?
