Unfortunately, even with the Velcro closed, I know mine has gotten bumped a couple of times on my way home and it gets turned on. It just happens occasionally.

I wonder how your bn could get switched on or off without your knowing it? It has that thick velcro flap that covers it. I suppose that even if one bumped that flap, the unit would remain in whatever state you left it. The only thing that I have seen is that after you charge your unit and when you unplug it, sometimes, it says adapter off and remains turned on even when the switch is in the off position. I have to turn mine on then off again. I even just now tried pressing on the switch with the flap over it and was unable to get it to turn on.
