    Hi all. Hoping someone can give me some advice. My 18 month old STL 100-2, Z10 has been annoyingly turning itself off over the last month with a slight jolt or pressure on the backplate. This will often happen with placing it back in its holster, but is intermittent, and might go a week with no problems, then act up for a day or so. My impression is that it happens more when it is a hot day, but I'm not completely sure. Is this a bug that's common or easily fixed, or off to the repairers or a new hand piece ?? Thanks kindly for any advice.

    One of my colleagues had the same problem as you. I advised him to put a piece of paper or something sturdy in the space between the battery and the part behind it. The connector is probably pushed a little to the inside, which gives the battery too much space to move. You need to block that movement by pushing the battery back to the connector and tada!
