I just purchased an Aegis GeekVape Legend but I don't know how to close the battery lid.

[rammstein]

I can't get the cover to clamp over the batteries no matter how hard I push it down. Does anyone else have one of these? (FYI yes I did put the batteries in the correct way).

 

[dreamvaper]

push and slide a bit

 

[Topwater Elvis]

Are you using flat top batteries?

The first minute or so shows how to close & latch battery door.

The legend failed the milspec test because it had battery door issues. They worked on it a bit, and wound up with a door who’s latch is kind of a PITA. It’s got a long slide and needs to be completely closed before it will move. It’s not snap shut. You need to pull back the slide all the way, close it, and release the slide.

@rammstein weren't you asking just yesterday about what batteries to get? If you've gotten hold of batteries this quickly, maybe take them to the store you bought them from. I'm sure there is a store clerk that will assist you.

 

[dreamvaper]

@rammstein
dude, did you managed to close it?

 

[Baditude]

Which batteries did you get? If you inadvertantly bought "protected" batteries (which are a tad longer than unprotected batteries) they probably won't fit in an Aegis Legend.

If the Aegis Legend has a design flaw, it would be the battery door in my opinion. Many reviewers have said the same thing.

The Aegis Solo has a much better designed battery door.

I highly recommend that you educate yourself about 18650 batteries.

@rammstein batteries don't usually come with the aegis legend. Did you buy this at a store? Can you post a picture of what you have please?

It was a kit, it came with a crappy tank also (that's alright I already have a good tank) And btw it says "Powered with dual 18650"

Yes, but the box/manual will state batteries not included. Did you buy it at a store, or online?

Never heard of the kit coming with batteries.
In your other thread many folks already answered your question & gave suggestions of what/which batteries would be good choices.

What exact batteries are you using?

[Baditude]

I'm guessing he bought his mod from a vape shop, and maybe they threw in some free 18650 batteries with the kit. That doesn't mean they are the ideal batteries to go with that mod. Probably not.

Getting useful information from this guy is like pulling teeth. I'm glad he's still asking questions though.

He knows that. He even said that in his other thread. The word troll comes to mind. One huge clue is he never sticks around after posting a question. Doesnt seem all that interested in finding answers. Jmho

Sorry I didn't mean to ditch the conversation I don't stay in forums for a long time because I get bored, I just pop in here and there.
