[Solved] Leds failing on a Pure

[coredumb]

Hello,

I've had this Pure sitting in its box for a while now - couldn't accommodate to the the layout and was too lazy to teensy it - so i decided to sell it to a friend.
He was more than happy, but just after two days, the Pure started to have led issues. Suddenly all of them shut down.
Only way to get them back is to open the case

Could that be a known issue? Hopefully one easily solved by a little something to change?


Thanks,
Coredumb

So apparently some of the solder point of transistors were "dry" - not sure if i can say that in english - so my friend remade all the solder point of the transistors and everything is working correctly since then

What you mean is a "cold" solder joint. Reflowing will fix this, glad to hear your board is working again

What would cause dimming/flickering LEDs in groups of 5 or so in a row? They dim and flicker in unison. Does this sound like a transistor issue? It's on a RACE. Maybe I should make my own topic..

Probably. And make a video…
