Help with Paragon V3

[uriah heep]

Hello, first let me say to everyone thanks for a great vaping community ! I will be the first to say my knowledge is at the lower level for vaping devices.
I just bought my first mech mod after having a regulated box mod for some time now. I bought a new Paragon V3, and must say I am disapointed with the switch. It is very wobbly (lack of better term) it gets stuck and gets very hot. I had my son in law to teach me how to adjust it, as mech mods & drippers is all he uses,its just not right. My question is there a fix for this ? I have read about magnets (what size ?) and better springs. How do I find the correct parts for this. I have not been able to find a email for Paragon. I have emailed the store asking the same questions, have not received a reply yet.The bottom of the mod does not come off. It has a screw inside of the tube at the bottom. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank You

I can't believe they used that button design. My Givo is like that! From the size of the button, it looks like Nemesis magnets will work. Maybe even a stiffer spring.

Yes the bottom should come off;

Nemesis magnets work in my Paragon, but I think mine is the v2?

It's not that one, the new V3 has a different button. The spring looks weak for the type of switch.

Hmm, that doesn't even look like you could use magnets.

Is the v3 20 x 1 threaded like mine is? If so, could get a Paps or Gus switch for it. There were some Gus switches in the classys.

Thanks for all the help ! Still have not heard from the store where I bought it. I did get it on sale for 50% off, however I really feel bad for people that paid the full $100. Live and learn I guess. Those Loaded Springs look like a chance for a fix, however the one I need is sold out and Loaded Springs website is down. I will try their facebook page. Once again thanks for the help !
