After a year, I have now given up completely on the Turbotwist. Decided to
warn others so they can save time and money... and safety.

I had the unit in operation for a couple months, during a routine cleaning,
noticed the quartz tube was full of water, with the UV light.

I cleared out silicone and glue, completely resealed the tube into the
housing. This last another month or so until the seal broke loose again,
this time blowing the light.

I found a reasonably priced replacement bulb recently, and had resealed the
quartz tube again. After a 1/2 hour, the seal popped again, this time,
cracking the quartz tube in two.

I took the time to closely examine the unit this time, as I was dumbfounded
as to how such an expensive unit could be causing such a problem. Looks like
the section that the quartz tube sits in was not perfectly circular, it was
more oval, which created the weak points that eventually lead to leaks into
the electrical sections, and inside the quartz tube.

Overall, it's a very poor design, definately not worth the money that they
want for it. It's pretty cheap compared to others that are available in the
market.

I recommend to anyone that is looking into a UV sterilizer to stay away from
this brand.

Happy New Year!
