OMFG!!!! I pressed the power button and started the stop watch at the same time. I missed the first 3 minutes so I waited until it was exactly 6 minutes and it turned on. How the hell did you know that it would only turn on exactly every 3 minutes?!

When I try to turn it on any other time it doesn't! What is the logic behind this?........

Thank you since it actually worked! Now I don't have to return it. But still, having to time exactly 3 minutes any time I want to turn it on is a pain in the butt.
