[TCML] MicroBrute Short Circuit?

[Cole Awesome-Jordan <jordancole@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, today i assembled my kit and was testing and on step 19 page 36  
of the manual i got about 1/8" of spark from the breakout point and  
then i saw a spark from the board around OUT+ i thought it was just a  
bad connection so i double checked all my screws and made sure they  
were tight. Then i tried the test sequence again and this time it blew  
up the wire in the board leading from IN+, and it exploded right by  
CR44. I did all the testing and the voltages were correct, i double  
checked that there were no soldier bridges, and i also double checked  
that the components were all in the right way and undamaged. I also  
noticed that C43 and C42 were very warm.

I was also on youtube and noticed that the user jospadua commented on  
these videos with a very similar problem
