Regular SLG Mainboard for £30 shipped

[cjsoftuk]

I'm not looking for an upgrade.

I'm after a regular Proto SLG mainboard that works. And I'm after it for at max £30 shipped.

If I can't get it for sub-£30, I probably won't be playing 'til at least the end of year, and I was so close to being part of this thriving community.

Any offers of mainboards are welcome. Dye, it appears, will not replace it! I am guessing human error (I.E. back to front battery) caused this in the first place.

Thanks for the help,

Chris

If the board broke due to back to front battery then its really, really poorly designed.

It's amazing what damage you can do in milliseconds with back to front batteries. Having done a fair amount of electronics, I know that backward battery through voltage regulator = bye bye voltage regulator. The SLG mainboards connect the battery straight to the voltage regulator, and by what I said above, wrong battery orientation = bye bye voltage regulator = circuit not working (and usually reasonably flat battery very quickly!).

I've done it enough times to know better, and Dye should know better than this, but it appears not.
