A moment of silence please - RIP TECs

[Shadav]

I iz sad

Can we have a moment of silence for my poor baby the TECs
It gave it's life so that I could be smoke free for a year.........

after a year of abuse it finally had enough and decapitated itself

thank you all for coming to say your goodbyes TECs' light will not be forgotten

in a world where most were using flashlights to create mods, TECs was a rebel and was a mod created to be used as a flashlight

where mods where made to be round the rebel TECs chose to be a square

Goodbye my darling TECs

Cloupor DNA30 from Angelcigs... 69.99 Buddy got one from them and it works fantastic. Fires as soon as you press the fire button.

Hmm, unfortunate, but there may be hope.

The 'control head' was likely originally press fit into the tube, so if you take off the topper, put the 'CH' on the tube then a board on top and tap it with a hammer, you could hopefully re-press fit them back together.

Best of luck!

i tried to put it back together but the pressure of the battery keeps pushing it apart

donno if maybe I can re glue it? or thinking about one of those thingies they have now like the split vamo's......

I got an empty shoebox if you wanna bury it in the backyard...

You could try applying 4 drops of epoxy spaced evenly around the male part of the press fit, that way its got a few contact points but leaves the majority of the metal clear for the body ground.

Do it without the battery and give it plenty of time to dry before inserting.

I'd bet the epoxy would extend its life for a few more drops.

 

[chellemmm]

So sorry for your loss, Shadav.

I wonder if it could be threaded. Get a tap and matching die then cut in threads screw it on and go to town! What is it going to hurt at this point?! People get new hearts everyday, why can't we thread a device and get added life!

Sorry to hear about your loss. RIP

I could 100% fix that, you just need some electrically conductive epoxy

Silver Conductive Epoxy: 10 Mins. Working Time / High Conductivity | MG Chemicals

Don't mourn the loss, fix it better than new!

 

[Asbestos4004]

As distraught as I am for your loss, your thread made my coffee come out my nose.

It's always hard to lose a friend, but try to resurrect it first try glueing it or something

 

[K_Tech]

Did you stare into its eyes as it was dying, then howl at the sky to warn the dead in Sto-vo-kor that a warrior was coming?

thank you for the link, I will have to try that...
I figured there had to be a way to fix it as the electronics were fine just that it became decapitated....

hehehe it was only fitting to give it a service for all the good deeds it did

but hopefully, we have the means (maybe not the knowhow) to make it better....bwahahahaha...summon the lightening, play the maniacal scientist music...it's time to try to bring it back to life...well once I get that glue that is....
