I have an Onyx 24 that I have only used a couple of times, so I can't speak about all of the unintended inflates. However, I also always store mine inside when not in use. My plan is to remove the auto equipment and make it manual only when I am in my kayak. I guess time will tell, but I plan to do all I can to avoid the scenarios that I have heard that will cause an unintentional inflate.
