Hello guys, so i was wiring my lilliput screen today and after applying the power to the cig lighter cord, the power egg exploded. Now thank god that i didnt have the other end connected to the screen cuz i think if i did it probably would have blown. What specifically happened was that the capacitor in the egg blew up and spread some liquid all over the place. At first i though that i had accidently reversed the polarities when i hooked it up but after opening up the cig lighter barrel i saw that i was right. (btw i had cut off the cig barrel so that i could directly wire the pos to a pos wire without have to use the barrel) i noticed that on the positive wire there was a resistor before the red led. could this have been the problem? so now i need to order another power cable (if someone could give me a hint as to where i could find one i would really appreciate it) and figure out what went wrong so that it doesn't happen again. Thanks in advance!!
