Don't want to talk about it any more than I have to. Bought an xr15 gen 4 second hand, wouldn't connect to Mobius (has the rf module too), and dummy me let it sit on my mouse pad and it started burning it. Only realized this when I started smelling it. Plugged in it honestly seems fine but it's just on white, can't really test other spectrums because it won't connect to Mobius. Should I still use it?

Just connected it to my reeflink for ecosmart live, it needs a new mobius compatible rf module so no worries there. The real worries lie if I should use this light. Seems like the glass on the led melted

Seems like I'm panicking a bit, it's just the lens that melted. Tested the light, everything works as normal, will call Ecotech to see if I could get replacement lens.
