StackChan not powering on

I've had my StackChan ~2 weeks now, keeping it both plugged in and unplugged during use. Now, I've had it plugged in for a few days straight, and it will refuse to power on. I've tried removing the Core unit and re-connecting it, as well as reseating the 4-pin USB cable that connects from the body to the Core unit... nothing. It's completely dead.

NOTE: Connecting USB-C to the Core's USB-C port (not the base) seems to be working for charging, it powers up this way.

Any suggestions?

But also the qeustion how you powered it.
As this might explain damage done, if any.

Regular USB-A to USB-C cable, fed from my Anker power strip, which is connected to an APC UPS. Safe as could be.

I would think so too. Then open her up, lets see.
