Hana Battery Door Issue!

[thegreatappreciator]

Hey kids, I have an authentic V3 hana modz. One of the screws that attach the battery door has stripped out. As of now, only 1 screw is holding the door on, and its probably just a matter of time before it goes too. Any ideas on a permanent fix? I would actually like to use magnets, but don't really know how that could be implemented. If you have a similar device that you've repaired, please post some photos. Thanks!

Surely someone knows. It would be very useful to know the types and sizes of magnets you used and how you attached them

I have been researching this a bit as I am interested in doing this as well. There seems to be many ways to do this. I googled "Hana magnet upgrade" and the first result seems to be the easiest. It's a YouTube video from the Vapor Chronicals. His method does not involve drilling and would be reversible if you don't like it. I will let you know if I do the upgrade. Good luck and keep me posted.

If putting in the stock screw positions, I used 1/10" by 3/8" for the body, and 1/8" by 1/8" for the door. I also have a milling machine (manual, not CNC ), so I could mill out recesses in the body and have the magnets in the door protrude a bit to fit in there so the cover doesn't slide around. One concern is having little chips of aluminum and cutting oil getting into places it shouldn't - that's the only thing keeping me from getting an authentic V4s right now.
