Newbie Here! Smok X-Priv Battery Door Issues.

[Courtney Willett]

Hello Everyone!
My name is Courtney. I'm the newbie here. Lol! I was hoping someone could help me out with some advice on how I can fix up my smok X-Priv ecig. The battery door us magnetic, Somehow 2 of the 4 magnets came out of mine & I am having to use a piece of clear tape to keep on...Which sucks bc I need a new piece everytime I swwitch out batteries (which is every morning) Is there any way I can fix this issue or even just fix it up to where I'm not having to replace the tape every single day?
Thanks,
Courtney.

Depending on how long you have had it, it might be covered under warranty. If it isn't under warranty, you could check FastTech, a company in China, and see if they have a magnet the same size. You could then either super-glue or epoxy them back in place.
Oh, hello and welcome to ecf.

Welcome Courtney. I'm not going to add anything to what's already been said...you should definitely be able to get a magnet for it.

Lots of friendly advice here when you need it...glad you joined

Ebay also has neodymium magnets. I don't own an Smok X-Priv. If there are 2 magnets that connect together, one in the mod and one in the cover, make sure you get the polarity right before gluing. Best way is to stick the magnets together, then mark with a Sharpie. You'll never get it out after it's glued with superglue.

In the meantime you could probably use a rubber band instead of tape, and welcome to ECF Courtney Willett.

Hello and welcome to ECF!

Plus a lot on buying some new magnets. Easy fix... the only time consuming factor is the ordering part.

Welcome and glad you joined.
If you have a thick sticky glue like shoe glue, clean back of magnet and plastic case with rubbing alcohol and coat both surfaces. Then join cover/mod w/ rubber bands/clamp.
