    E-mag Board Fried?

    I had my emag powder coated, so i had to take the board out... i've dealt with computers and mags for a long time, so i know how to handle the stuff. i put the board in a static bag and then in a bubble wrap bag for storage and i made sure i was careful when assembling/disassembling.

    The problem is: when i turn it on, the screen doesn't say 3.2 or anything, it just blips a bit of red. once its on it blips a bit of red when i hit the buttons and displays TRG after a few hits. I donno whats wrong with it, but it's not working right. I also may need to charge it... it was charged last time i used it though. dont have a charger yet, but i should get one in this week

    Make sure it is grounded well. I would also check and see what the battery is charged to.

        You might also check and make sure your trigger magnet is not to close to the HES.

          the emag's electrical system is grounded to the grip frame itself. Anyplace where there is a mounting screw for the board, and where the battery terminals in the front of the frame, make sure there is no powder coat interupting the ground. More than likely that is you problem.
