Thought I'd try posting here, rather than the modder's forum, as this seems more of a maintenance issue than a builder's issue. I've been using a madvapes RoughStack for a while now, and love it! Lately, the switch or the socket have become intermittent. I'd like to take apart and clean, but not sure how the socket comes apart. Are the small slots on the top for airflow? Or, to bite with a screwdriver to unscrew?

Thanks for any help....vape on:2cool: Terry

The slots are for air flow..a screwdriver will ruin the connector. If you want to disassemble the switch assembly unscrew the nut on the switch and the entire assembly will push out. What I would do is make sure the + and - contacts are clean. The small spring attached to the switch assembly disk is negative and the center post of the disk is the +. After cleaning with a Q-Tip and alcohol, put a small drop of Noalox on both. If that doesn't solve the problem replace the assembly.
