Has anybody else experienced this with 500+? Lately when I turn it on, it goes crazy. I have to turn it off, remove the battery, put it back in, and then it works. Alternatively, I have to turn it off/on again several times until it starts to work properly.

Oh I thought the problem is with the large tube. That is weird.

Thank you for everything! I figured it out. I've disabled the Tube 2 through settings and now it works just fine.

If it is the big tube problem. I think you need to email support for the warranty of the device. Let them know that it has a tube problem.

That time I loosened contacts to the point where it didn't touch tubes at all. That's how the problem went away.

Ohh I see. Just try to loosen it or just remove the ziptie too see if the noise is permanently removed.

That did it! It's the larger tube. I moved both of them a bit, but nothing changed. Then I loosened a contact on the smaller tube, but problem still was there. So I tightened it and loosened contact on larger tube. Problem went away, but came back when I tightened the contact on the large tube again.

Hmm can you try to push the tube a little bit just to move the contact? If there's still the problem then we may need to ask support for the warranty.

Also can you try to turn off tube 2 to check if it is tube 1 or 2 problem?

Hi, I opened the case and contact is firm and clean. Issue still persists.
EmfDev Posted - 04/20/2020 : 09:28:21
Hi kdsnake69, are you able to open the case and check the contacting on the tubes? It can be because there is a bad contact on the terminals.
