Hello DirtBagger, I'm new on this forum, although I've been looking for some times.
I saw your pictures and I tell you that I have a T2 SE bought from "kellyco" and my 11" coil is exactly the same than your pictures.
Meaning there is a "micro crack" all around the base of the machine, same place than yours.
I have the machine for almost a year, and I only have done like 6-7 outings (health issues). Also I take good care of it, so I doubt it's due to bad manipulation or something.
Actually I just notice the cracks after seeing your topic, I was looking on google with the version 7.6, as I was checking it it had any issues with discrimination- an entire different topic.
So I went to check my T2 SE and that's when I saw the very same crack than yours.
I've been already putting the coil under water near a river, sweeping for 30min, so I hope the crack is just cosmetic!
Also, I kind of think that the theory of "ez4sure" is incorrect (poor repair job) as I also bought the device new... Unless the repair was done before selling?
Anyway, you are not alone! I think you also have 7.6 version, correct?
I just emailed tecknetics on their website, let;s see what is the outcome, hopefully it won't be a "known issue" needing recall because I'm in Switzerland, I'll dont want to pay ups or fedex
Thanks
