This happened last year, but I finally got around to disassembling my burned out LVX6048. It looks like it was a bad soldering job that caused this issue, but I think the battery terminal design is just poorly designed. There is a little daughter board that the battery cables connect to, and then two bus bars jump that to the mainboard. There was black/burn marks on all four connections, but the negative pad on the mainboard won the race to release the magic smoke. Unit is out of warranty, so MPP Solar said all they can do is sell me a replacement mainboard. Not sure if the other Voltronic clones have this same issue, but it might be worth checking if you have one.
