Hey guys, thought this would be a great place to have maintenance tips for the Chameleon, even though this service for all you guys for 1 year. This is to be informational for folks that want to maintain their Chameleons for themselves and that don't want the hassle of shipping it back. 
If anyone has any tricks or tips all input is very welcome!
Number One priority with Chameleon is the connections. Connection is the key to happy vaping. The atomizers can sometimes leak like they always tend to. With the Chameleon adapters being the way they are as separate entity's the liquid doesn't anywhere to go. The plus side is that the switch and battery are completely safe from harm and hazard. It's very easy to clean out the adapters.
By using a soft tool like the one displayed.
You can easily push out the center pin without causing harm to the unit.
Once out, I like to use the finest sandpaper that you can find, which is normally "Smooth away" brand sandpaper. It's a hair removal device but works great to sand off any type of build up or excess liquid. Also see Stage 3 nail buffers. It's s soft sponge material box shaped product.
Once the pin is removed, you can also remove the plastic washer.
I then gently in a rotating circle sand down the center pin 2 or 3 times, just enough to ensure a proper cleaning.
I then clean the button sector brass prongs by using the same circular motion on both sides. I'm not too keen on metal build up connectivity, but I did find that this also helps.
To check to see if the button is still alive. Set your multi-meter (If you have one, they are very easy to find starting around 3$ and up)
Please note, where I have the dial set (to the ".)))" symbol) by connecting each negative and positive side to the button. Activate the Chameleon's switch, if the switch is active you will hear a beeping sound. In the unlikely event of no sound coming from your multimeter, your switch has gone bad.
To replace your switch it is very simple and only 2 tools are needed. A pair of pliers and a small flat head screwdriver.

Please note that tampering with opening the button sector can void your warranty, this video is for mechanically and electronically inclined user's. If physical proof (like a photo) of all components being present, your warranty will still happily continue.
