Mine was randomly turning off by itself. Sometimes it would turn back on and sometimes not. Almost took the rubber button off but then I got an idea of what it might be. I took out the battery and used a hooked wire to bend the contacts up a little. This solved the problem.

Dropping is a simple quarter coin, or one of the fatter Mexican coins inside the battery cap, is a fast fix also.

I have certainly bent tabs though.
Great idea. An easy fix
 

Nice ideas,both of you! I just bent a tab on a cold Dos XXs,does that count? I didn,t throw it on the ground either!
Lol. I have bent about a thousand tabs. Those pop can makers are a curse to us true treasure hunters.
