Hello just got a duo 280c and i plugged it in . Didnt start and had a horrible fish odor. I opened it up and the capacitors leaked. I cleaned with soap and water. Is the board ruined? No battery acid or anything. Thanks

Theres threads about it on here - as soon you plugged it in or start it up you have slim chance for it to be working again...

Theres fuses, caps on DC-DC board that needs replacing. Techknight did warn Duo users/owners about this

Cheers
