Possibly by the charging cord?  The moon isn't all that heavy and I
don't think it would slip out of the connector.  ...Would be nice of the
wire was black: show less.  If white could try 'painting' with a
permanent marker -- test some place to see if will work.

Mine won't change unless tap the button.  OTOH it is plugged into a 
computer on a UPS, so shouldn't have noise.
