I was under the impression that it is not a good idea to remove the bottom so I have loosened the screw a few turns and lightly twist the case to burnish the points. I assume that you are removing the bottom to use an eraser. Does that cause any problems? Thanks.
Good advice. It's hard to imagine how the button could have been hit in a rapid enough succession to turn it on. It most likely was on for the entire trip.
The power loss happens so gradually that I didn't notice even though I have had to perform the process a couple of times previously. Now I will keep my Torx wrench nearby and pay closer attention. Immediate improvement of vapor!
You won't believe this...I just unexpectedly received a brand new TM and a couple more stems that I did not order. Like many others, I was having a challenge getting service. I sent a couple of emails and got my original TM back in about 6 weeks along with several stems and a couple of dosing...
