    I wish that was my trouble with the Oasis...a while back, the Oasis unit I keep in my cooler decided to just stop functioning, it would not turn on when I removed the power ribbon and re-inserted it, no help when changing batteries or using the side power port...I'm guessing something on the circuit board went screwy, but I'm not an electronics guy, so it might be a bit problematic to find the cause....may still take it apart and see what I can see, won't hurt since it's broken anyway.

    How much did the glue expand? It can expand 4X or more what you put on especially in a moist environment.

    Yep I used it for that reason, I figured its expansive qualities would create a better seal. I had to scrape quite a bit of excess from the outside this morning. Being that I put the glue on the outside of the lip and as hard as that stuff dries I highly doubt it will effect the water any though. Its already been filled with water and placed back into the fridgeador.

    I missed this before. That sucks joe. If I had known that I would have said somehting. THere was a guy on ebay who lost his power cord and had thrown away the cartridge bc it was "bad". He was selling just the unit, I think it went for $15 or $20. He guaranteed it worked.
