LED light on battery fell off.

[freeman dyson]

I have a regular manual battery for my Joye 510 and the led top came off. Any way to put this back on? I'm using some tape right now. Does this cap being off hurt the performance? thanks. also, how do you get the old taste out of atomizers? just keep vaping a different flavor till the old flavor is gone?

it will not hurt the ecig by having the cap off. you can try to glue it back on since you should never need to get into that part of the unit. also you can try soaking the atomizer in rubbing alcohol for a couple days. this cleans it as well as removes some of the taste of the old flavors however, i have found that you can never really get rid of the taste completely. especially if it is a strong flavor.

i have also had this issue with some of my 510s after i have intentionally took the led cover off to change the color of my leds. i usually just superglue it back on if this happens.

thanks guys. so super glue wont hurt anything?

Super glue should not hurt anything, as long as you don't squeeze the whole tube into the battery

As for cleaning atties (that includes getting rid of old tastes) there are tons of threads out there describing various methods. Blowing them out, a few drops of Vodka, or soaking them in hot water so far has worked for me. Although I have not yet tried to clean my clove one, since I still vape that.
It's not a bad idea to have various in use anyway, if you use different families of flavours, like sweet, tobacco, fruit, etc.

+1 for Super Glue. I've had to re-glue the plastic cap on my pen-style battery several times.

This happened to one of my batteries and I lost the tip. For now I just stuck a cartridge condom on the end of the battery because I'm afraid of dirt or something getting inside.
I was reading the cosmetic mod section and some people replace the tip with all kinds of crazy things.
