Default smoked adrenaline

been having a problem starting my truck lately ,have a bad draw on the batteries so today while it was in the shop getting some other things done to it I put the charger on it(10 amp charge) and after about 10 min. I walked around the front of the truck and the smoke was rollin out of the adr box.,it got hot enough to melt the side of the box,so it is now removed copletely and I have sent them a email to see what to do next,I hope we can get this fixed soon ,the truck has no power without the boxbiggest problem I have now is trying to find my receipt for the thing

some of the earlier tunes did this to some boxes. This is why Quad replaced them on his site.

my tunes come from quads site but it has been a long time since I changed tunes, when I got the pulse from you was the last time I loaded a tune into it and that was shortly after they come out and I need it back because a stock truck sucks
