I'm looking for help with an Aion Refractor kit (klon clone) build. Here is what I know I did wrong: (1) First off, I soldered the foot switch on to the wrong side of the PCB. (2) I had to desolder Cap 14 and relocate it after sticking it in the wrong spot. (3) I installed one of the sockets upside down. (4) I replaced a 15k resistor with a 10k. The LED comes on, and I have checked for ground faults and other soldering errors. Other than the major screw ups listed above, I didn't find any other obvious trouble.  Here are the numbers from the chips.  My numbers are in the left column. Aion's numbers are to the right. 

IC1         IC2         IC3   
4.1   4.9      -7.6   4.96      9.3   9.86
4.1   4.9      3.5   4.92      5.5   5.02
3.1   3-4 var   4.1   4.91      0   0
0   0      -9.3   -9.49   -3.8   -4.66
9.3   4.9      -8.2   4.91      9.3   -9.49
1.3   4.92      -7.6   4.92      5.8   4.95
4   4.97      -7.5   4.87      4.4   6.35
3.6   9.86      4.1   17.99   -9.3   9.86

I have triple checked the chips and they are in the sockets that correspond with the instructions.   

Thanks in advance for any help.

I wonder if you are not getting the numbers of the pins correct.  For an 8 pin IC they go:

1   8
2   7
3   6
4   5

Your measurements make a lot more sense if you have mis-numbered the pins
