[skyler kirley]

Hey there! I have an Apollo clone and the hybrid cap is stuck screwed down where I can't put in the battery or screw on an atti. Phone won't let me put pictures

You didn't get a wrench with it? You need a spanner to get in the two small holes and turn it. You can probably get one at the hardware store. Failing that, with a Dremel you can make one out of a thin, flat metal bar. And be careful with those faux hybrid top mods. In the hands of an inexperienced user it's a pipe bomb. You might be lucky you can't get a battery in it.

Hello @skyler kirley , I haven't a clue what you're talking about. However when something vape related is stuck a couple things immediately come to mind. Rubber bands work like kitchen rubber jar grabbers. Sometimes putting the device in the freezer for 5 minutes will help the metals so that it's easy to un stick.

Good luck.

It's usually a good idea, but the rubber band trick won't work this time

Needle nose pliers with narrow tips, unbend a thick large paperclip, small scissors, you can be creative...

Put in freezer for about 10 minutes and use above to try to remove the cap.

This is assuming there is not battery in it...If there is, spanner is the way to go

I know. Being very careful with it. Done a ton of research and no, no wrench. Would two Alan keys work?

Two of anything you can stick in the holes. Grab them together and twist.
