First time taking the cap off to charge battery the bottom cap broke.. That cap is made of 2 pieces.. The aluminum piece still good and screws In..the plastic piece is just glued on to the aluminum cap... I'm going to use david's(fazed) idea and order the end cap for the buzz pro..

I don't like the "nubs" on the bottom cap of the lavatube. I have a Buzz Pro, and I had taken some small blocks of wood and drilled holes just the right size to set it in. Keeps it from falling over easily. Those don't work with the lavatube due to the nubs.
So this sounded like a good idea. But when I screwed the Buzz Pro endcap onto the lavaPro, it lit up, and seemed to be working, just long enough for me to set the voltage. And then it quit. I tried this 3 times, same result every time. Went back to the lavatube endcap, and it worked fine.
I don't know why the buzz pro endcap doesn't work. It feels like it fits, though the spring is pretty tight and has to compress a lot. Initiallly, the lavatube's LED's light up like it's working. But it doesn't work for me.
I'm tempted to try filing the nubs off the lavatube endcap, but since I don't have another endcap and don't know where I could get one, if something went wrong, it would leave the lavatube useless.

If you take the end cap off and take the spring out... You'll see two black spots..take a nail and punch it out.it will pop the plastic piece off and you'll have just the aluminum end cap.. It look a lot nicer like this.. Maybe make a mod to screw in the end totake the end cap off, I have no problem taking mines off. I'll try to post a picture.
man, you have had some troubles with that thing already! Good luck on modifying!
Same issue as most, but its working good now. The look without the plastic is much more nice to me..ty
