I've had two come loose, don't be lazy and clean out the hole before re-inserting or it won't sit flush... don't ask, but I'm waiting for it to come out again. :censored:
Too funny me too it's been a while I must have used too good of glue cause it hasn't budged.

I would bet your issue stems from using different length cells. The tmsx will adjust to a wide range of cells but if you use different length cells by even a half of a mm you will notice connection issues as there is nearly zero spring in the contacts. Simple solution: adjust your negative screw a half turn when you notice the issue. Personally I have 2 sxtms and have had zero problems with either of them.
Success! Removed and cleaned the threads of the negative post with alcohol and a q-tip. Performance is back! Gone through two battery charges and all is well. FYI for anyone having similar issues. I think now I will find an old toothbrush and do a better cleaning. Two dis-similar metals, I wonder if there is a better cleaning method?

Acids are good for removing corrosion.
Ketchup, vinegar, and lemon juice are good household sources for mild acids.

Better to find a way to prevent the galvanic corrosion though.
Use compatible metals, use intermediaries, preventatives, etc.

The last time I posted that pic he came back the following day. Maybe it's like the BatSignal.....

We'll see....

Forum stats say
"Tbev was last seen: Saturday at 3:51 PM"
So 2 hours before you posted the milk carton.
He just hasn't posted since April.

He posted some pics on FB on May 6.


And he's been active on instagram.
Post this yesterday
