I’m having a hard time tracking down motherboards too. But the guide is still helpful if someone wants to harvest a motherboard out of another broken Oontz and use it in their own. If anyone else finds a source for the motherboard, feel free to edit the guide and include a link to it in the details section. Maybe if we all work together we can find a source.
