Hacking Powertag help

[SquidgyBean]

I have bought 3 new powertags as I burnt my last one out. 2 are working fine. But one of them writes fine but when placed on switch to be scanned i just get a error beep. Anyone know why?

How did you burn it out?

How did you burn it out?

The powertag easily gets fried if you write to it to much. It seems to happen even more if you use the serial number changer (either through the powersaves software or with the .py)
hell, even legit amiibo have been fried do to this software.

Hmm.. when you say powertag, is it a branded powertag, like this:

Yes that's the one, I got 4, one burnt out so I bought 3 that arrived a few days ago and 2 work fine but one gets flashed too but when used on the switch on breath of the wild gives that error beep

Third party buying? Maybe not legit? I just did 30 minutes of writing to mine, add that to the two weeks prior... dunno.

I bought mine from the codejunkies website
