To be fair, I was seeing odd charging behavior starting a few days prior to my latest upgrade so it could be coincidental, but everyone should be cautious. My background is in electrical engineering so I knew what I was doing, but issues can always pop up. Be careful. Now I just need to beg iRex to sell me a power board!

P.S. Kudos to jharker for offering assistance with software code to help in the troubleshooting process. Thanks again.
So do you think your power board problems have anything to do with increasing the battery capacity? You started seeing the problems after your first upgrade, right?
