@francesc0-cgm With the earlier versions of the RL, we had fairly frequent issues with the power regulator that would cause the board to heat up. It never got to any dangerous levels. With the newer 1.0 boards, while I have heard reports, they’ve been pretty rare. I’ve never seen one heat up myself. Also, in these cases, I’ve never heard of any injury or burn. The RL batteries are smaller, and not the large types you find in OpenAPS. I have seen the larger ones end in dangerous situations, but never RL size batteries, even though I’ve put them through tests where I’ve punctured, and hammered on them. I would inspect the battery closely to make sure there is no physical damage to it.
@tomasboudr we just repair them in the standard way and they go a family from the waiting list . We have so many families with refurbished G5 so the two fathers who repair them don’t have time to experiment with the rechargeable ones . And with the G6 in the picture we might try on it actually once we get some dead . So far we have only two dead G6 :)

steady blue light ... is it dead?
Has anyone designed a waterproof version of the orange RileyLink case?
