S3T bags won't unlatch, is there a way to get them open without destroying the bags?

From the Knowledge Vault

I used the last method and then sealed the small hole with silicone. You can also try removing the side security screws. But mine just spun.

Good luck : )

I CAREFULLY drilled out the allen screws on the lid. You probably have a broken latch. That's what happened to mine. The tab that hits the unlatching mechanism boke off and it would'nt operate the latch. It's a PIA when your stuff you need is in the bag!
