DOA Pinecil?
#1
My Pinecil arrived this morning and it doesn't seem to be working.

When I power it up, the main screen pops up and I can go through the menus, but as soon as I try to turn the heat on, it blinks off and then restarts.

I tried updating the firmware, but got an error message when I tried to flash it:


Invalid DFU suffix signature A valid DFU suffix will be required in a future dfu-util release!!! Error during special command "MASS_ERASE" get_status 
DFU-Util exited with error code 74!
Flashing failed.


Any suggestions on how to get it working?
