My button got stuck about 2 minutes ago. I googled “stuck ego button’ and
found this vid. Now it’s working again. And I didn’t miss a thing. I love
Youtube.
I recently got one of these in a very similar design. The problem I have is
I can’t charge the battery because when I try to get to the battery it
always opens to the area with the wire. Please any help would be greatly
appreciated.
thank yooooou! Fixed mine!
This video saved my ass and my Wallet. Thank you man
=( well I tried this and ended up disconnecting two of the wires.. So I
think I just completely broke my battery all over a stupid button
THANK YOU! I’ve had an ego-c twist with a broken button just sitting in a
desk drawer for about a year. I’m broke and cant afford another battery so
I decided to see if anyone had uploaded a video (I searched before with no
luck) and BOOM! found yours right off the bat.
I fixed the battery and it’s charging now. Here’s hoping that’s all that
was wrong with it. If it is, then I’ll have another battery instead of just
one that’s starting to fail on me.
Thanks a ton!! I dropped mine yesterday and was afraid to take it apart, as
they are not cheap. Watched your video and my daughter and I had it fixed
in a couple of minutes. You totally rock!!
Thank you, this was a very helpful video and I got my wife’s button fixed
and working fine again. :)
Very helpful, thanks a ton!
Never buy an mng vape battery. I’ve had 3 and they all started breaking in
the first day, even once I learned to treat them like an ipod screen.
Thanks friend
The Vapor Place here in Idaho and Oregon repairs their customer’s broken
batteries free of charge. I was in the habit of carrying my vapor stick in
my back pocket which damaged more than a few batteries that they would fix
on-the-spot at no cost. Thank you for posting this video so that I can
attempt my own repairs at home.
thanks. now i fix all the stuck buttons i find
I’ve just tried this and when I was closing it the blue wire separated from
the green bit where the button is supposed to be pressed help please. :(
my wires were held together by glue, like come on something that’s going to
heat up shouldn’t be held by glue morons
Would you be able to post a Video on where the wires connect because
someone pulled mine Apart ages ago and i dont no how to fix it
This is exactly what I needed to do. Thank you for helping me out. Works
like new.
thanks for showing how to open up.
Not all eGo batteries are that easy to fix. Some are extremely difficult to
assemble them back again; the inner space is too tight and the button on
the IC must be pressed in order to put it back…a nightmare.
Good info anyway, thanks.
Hint: Get a better webcam ;)
thanks this helped !!!
Thank you.
I would advise being really really careful doing this, I just got a new
battery two days ago, the button got stuck today, I tried this, the circuit
board is pressed in really tight with a plastic casing around it, as soon
as I got it out, the board grounded out, all I heard was a small pop and
that’s all she wrote, anyone that is good with electronics I would advise
cutting one wire before removing anything and spice it back together along
with a little heat shrink tube so you don’t end up frying your board. DO
NOT LET THE BOARD TOUCH THE METAL! If it hits the wrong way it will short
it out. Brand new battery, didn’t even get a full charge off it. But
thanks, ill know what to do and how to avoid this in the future.
Im having the stuck button issue on a firefly battery any ways to fix it?
I have A skyda 8 And the battery do nothing Don’t light up in blue like it
suppose to do. Y plug it in the charger and the charger y green the battery
blinks like 20 tmes and then turn off and do nothing again…. What just
happen? I need another battery what can I do? Please help me
Thnx +Vapor Kings I just did this carefully using a ce4 tank and jiggled
the button back into place..didnt really nd to pull everything out
thanks man. i dropped mine and fixed it before i finished watching your
vid
Thanks dude, dropped a battery months ago and the button was half stuck in,
had to press so hard that i had a permanent dip/mark on my thumb, soon as i
seen this i went and had a go,
Sure enough you fixed it for me… your a gent
I broke the button for months when i dropped it, then i dropped it and it
fixed itself i was sooo stoked, but literally 10min later my girlfriend
dropped it and broke it again… :/
You don’t want to glue the button. When I repair these in the shop, I put a
small dab (very small) on the plastic piece where it meets the inside of
the metal connector shell. I also put a small drop on each of the tabs that
slide into the metal shell. Hold these pieces in place until they dry
(don’t glue your fingers!). If you need further illustration let me know
and I’ll post a complete video…this is something we learned after we made
the initial repair video. JoyeTech fixed the design
Thanks for this! I appreciate a vape company doing a video like this not
just telling people to buy a new one!
Awesome! Thanks a million!
That would be a different brand of battery and I’m not familiar with how
they are built.
I freaking hate stuck buttons, if u have an ego with a sticky button and
can’t fix it, get rid of it or be freaking careful. I’ve ruined 3 clearos
from not unsticking it in time
Thanks! Worked perfectly. I found that some liquid had leaked down into the
button area and that was gunking it all up. Leak had come from the outside
and not “through” the battery itself. Leaks are apparently more than just
annoying.
Had to be patient with the rockin’ back and forth. Found out the button was
not alligned on the circuit board switch. But yeah it worked. Thanks.
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!
Fantastic! Mine’s working beautifully now. Huge thanks for your help =)
can you please please please help me. the wire inside the vapor had
dislodged from its place and i don’t know how to reassemble it back. please
help me.
How about a stuck button on a svd ? any ideas
Thanks fella – worked a treat. Vaping in the U.K.
I would add while digging around in there use plastic tools only. I used a
pen cap when prying the circuit board out. I was just putting my button
back in and just fried all the wires when my metal tweezers inadvertently
touched something, probably the circuit board. Thanks for the video but I
would HIGHLY recommend using nothing metal while working on this. Seems
like common sense, but apparently I don’t have any ;-p
thanks for starting from step 1- how to open it up! so many other videos do
not start at step 1. This worked great- thanks- how do you feel about
placing a drop of super glue under the button to attache to the strike pad
beneath it?
Thank you! I was just about to order a new battery, this is the second time
this happened, the first battery went in the trash, so glad I did not have
to do the same with this one! Thanks again
