Nope.
I wish.
argh. Havent had to do this in years, but back in the day ive had luck using a tiny bead of crumpled aluminum foil. Most modern stuff has at the very least a screw slot. Bad design. YMMV.
took a look at a video about the device and im not 100% sure its worth the bother unless youre using a partiularly unsafe mech mod like a smok pipe that has no button safety system at all.

Wanted it to know how much battery left on my mech mod.

Yep. That could really use one alright. Should look pretty good on it too actually. Those things always suffered a bit for looking too much like (other stuff).

Iirc the hammer has a floating pin in a rubber gasket and you may be able to wiggle it up and down a bit with a needle

Nope, can’t get the pins to touch. Bummer.
I use to smoke Cherry Blend in a pipe.
The hammer gives me the same effect.

One or both may have the old school floating pin set up. Back when I had to deal with those I would take a pin or a tooth pick and slowly lever the pin forward against the rubber gasket. Pain in the ... and there's not much movement to get but it might work

I’ll try that tomorrow.
Hope it works.
Thanks for all your help.

    Do you think those circuit board spacers from madvapes would work?

    Ooh, looks interesting.
    At that price I ordered it !
    We’ll see.
    Thanks !
    I've never used them myself but they got popular with the MPV20 crowd a few years ago if you need more info on them it'be on the forum somewhere. Order a few, they get lost easy.

    If that doesn't work, pulling the mod pin up or putting an oring underneath helps also.

    Cute. That's the exact opposite of what is needed if I understand his problem though. My understanding is it's the center pins that don't touch. Depends on how tiny it is of course. If the whole thing fits inside the 510 connector it could be perfect!

    You are correct.
    I’m hoping the whole thing fits.
    For the price, worth a shot.
    Any other ideas on getting pins to touch ?

    Haven't had this issue in a while. When I did I used a tiny ball of tinfoil. I suppose for added safety you could roll up a ~1mm cylinder, wrap it in electrical tape and slice it, but that spacer sounds like a better solution if it fits
