cause the boards are melted slightly around where the regulators are.. which i supposed a continuity test would tell... anyway, should i worry about it?
PS. i had the switch and everything, i was about half way done installing it, and needed to test them again so i just plugged it back in, and forgot to finish the job

The lead inspectors will have the ability to reprogram but if you had a regulator failure, reprogramming might not fix the problem. The designer gives the user the ability to remove the regulator and connect the board to +5 volts rather then the 7.2-12 volts with the regulator in place. During reprogramming the power is delivered through the USB port on the computer. A lead inspector will examine your board prior to reprogramming to check for issues that affect power supply.
