So my ITaste MVP power button fell out today so I just used a little gorilla glue to glue it back on. Is there any way for any of the gorilla glue to seep into the part of the battery that fires to vaporize the liquid? This question only popped into my head after I did it and definitely don't want to be inhaling vaporized gorilla glue. :confused:

I wouldn't think so, for you to vape any glue it would have to be able to get into your delivery device. I would be more worried about when the glue expands as it cures getting in and gluing the switch completely.

That would depend upon what lies behind the fire button. Was there a contact plate that you glued the switch to?

The button itself had a little black plate attached to it (is this the contact plate) with a cyclindrical little bump that presses the part on the battery that fires the device. I didn't put any glue on this part. I only put glue on the 4 edges of the back of the button in a thin layer.

Tried to picture in my mind what you were describing. I think that you will be fine how you did it. The glue should have had time to set. Is the device working now?

That happened to me about 6 weeks from buying mine. I just used scotch tape. Then 2 to 3 weeks latter while taking my atty off, the 510 connection started twisting on it and the wire connections on it twisted off. I was pretty mad so I went and got a lava tube and 4 weeks after that, the button on that started messin' up. So looking at my ProVeri I had for two great years, I got another one (Mini). Never again will I buy a china battery, because I don't have to because I have my ProVeri's. I guess I am a fanboy now. WOO-HOO!!!
