For those of you that have joined 2 together. What did you use to make it secure and to avoid substrate leaking out?

It's not a perfect solution, and a little substrate does come out when the tortoises move around, but here's how I did it. I didn't put the end panels on the boxes. I drilled 1 hole on the end of each box at matching heights. Then I just connected the boxes end to end with a bolt, washer and nut on through each side.

negative, just keep it sealed... the ones from v4ink work better, i sent these back.

Perhaps yours has the same problem mine did, and leaked some glue! It was very hard to turn it loose.

I had the same concern. Here is what I did and it actually worked. The put the legs and fluid mechanism in a medium dry bag and taped the top shut.

I would suggest some JB Weld. Also, you can't beat the strength of Gorilla Glue, but it expands, so you will want to clamp to prevent it splitting the plastic more.

I wish I could help you, but our Krups has never given us any problems....I am wondering how it actually " broke? " We have never experienced leaks. Krups is a very good name, I am surprised at this happening.

I took a couple strips of Gorilla Tape (it's black) and taped the "tray" to the main body.....that was a couple months ago and it is very secure...works like a charm and you can't even see the tape....

I've taken this apart and tested where it leaks. All you need to do is put a strip of duct tape on the back covering the seams on the removable access panel. No need to seal the top of the unit around the solar cell.

I have mine mounted outside under my SES. It seems sealed up well. I think I sealed the threads with some silicone.

I thought the same thing , I did not remove plastic so the double sticky tape holds it on better. You really don't want Circuit board exposed on other side of heat sink. I got some industrial strength Velcro works great. I keep a check on the heat sink to see if it heats up to much. Been doing fine.

I think you may have to use additional adhesive, e.g. more doublesided tape. Ours didn't hold up very well with just the tape they included, so we had to add another layer.

I bought one for my sliders and they look great. From my experience with the installation; I do not believe that you can connect two of them with a seal in between.

Hey Jonathan, did you find out about this or found another insert suitable for the kind of combo you have? (I have a similar one and am desperately looking for an insert solution!

I use packaging tape on mine. If I had some glue handy, I would test it out for you, but I do not have any glue.

no soldering required. it just slips together. mix up some flour and water when you run it to paste on the connections to keep from leaking

Mine comes off frequently (at the top). I've thought about securing it w Gorilla glue or grommets or something. A pain for sure.

Yes you keep them together to keep it secure. I love mine I use it practically every day. Well worth the money.
