kobo elipsa need Repair
Does anyone know the specifications of this component?
It's overheating abnormally and needs to be replaced.

Without knowing that's printed on the chip, I don't think anyone will know what you need to replace it with.

Only thing I can say is usually the letter L is for inductance.

It's probably an inductor for a small SMPSU. The overheating is likely caused by a fault elsewhere.

Any tips or gotchas on getting the cover off the Elipsa?
