PSA: Core 2 not powering off.



  • @M5Stack @IAMLIUBO
    You may notice that sometime Core2 device may not power off when the button is held in for five seconds.
    I have noticed that the Button used for power is prone to breaking (I have already notified M5Stack about this issue on multiple occasions)
    You can replace the switch but a simpler fix is to use the "battery paper trick" and stick a small block of insulated substance on top of the switch to hold the cover down.

    I haven't included pictures as the switch is so small and difficult to photograph.

    P.S. This doesn't just affect Core2 devices and any device that uses this switch may suffer.
    Thank you for taking the Time to Read.
