Hey all,
I accidentally sent more than 3 volts to the battery pin on the feather. One part of the board smoked for a bit. Now the board won't show up when plugged into my pc and the yellow light does not blink. I was wondering if it is at all fixable.

How much is "more" and how long did you connect it? It's probably not worth trying to repair it other than the education you will receive, sorry.

Probably best to get a new one. There is no sure way to repair it.

Thanks. I didn't purchase it, it was free with a Roomba I bought. I am not out anything.
