I honestly now avoid this style UAT now, To many issues related to them. I know use BVM type and they are flawless. Similar to MAP brand but IMHO a bit better due to the construction materials inside.

Turns out the clear tube of the UAT was cracked and split in two. I have no idea why this happened. Has anybody else experienced this?
