I've had to move on to another project for the short term, but since changing our process, we have not had an issue with the LIPO charging IC. Discontinuing use of the USB power connector seems to be key, and this setup has worked for multiple days without incident. We now cable to USB for initial configuration *without standalone power*, then use Wi-Fi for connectivity and a 12-15v power adapter exclusively.
