Dropped Vamo v2 Problem Please help

[neptoon]

I dropped my vamo v2 and now it only puts out half the power it used to with a single 18350. If i put 2 of them it works good. From the looks of it it seems to me the brass connector pin from the circuit board to the battery is not making good contact when a single battery is in.
I tried playing with that pin but am scared to keep messing with it because I know its soldered on the circuit board and can come loose.
I don't know what to do please help

I don't know what it is. I stretched out the spring and it still didn't help with the single battery.
Its very weird. Even with an 18650 single it doesn't fire at full power. Only when I use 2 18350's it fires like normal. Like it did before I dropped it.

Gently take the top section off its a press fit I say gently so you don't rip the wire make sure there are no loose wires and if the pin is bent you should be able to sort it with the top section removed.

Well, I managed to pull out the top piece along with the ground connection so now my head is going to explode. I have no patience for it and now i'm not going to buy a soldering iron to put it back.
I guess i'll order a new mod. Looking for something more durable i'm open for suggestions.

ask one of the guys at your local ratshack or computer store (would prolly do it for a few bucks iF its a easy obvious connection) if they can solder it for you if your not comfortable with soldering...
