Hey Lionel, sorry 'bout your misfortune there, are you still able to use it as it is?
If not I'm thinkin' maybe a couple dabs of contact cement or a small amount of tape might hold it together long enough for a few new magnets to get there. Cheers.

Magnets start about 3/4 of the way down, might take a month to arrive though.. https://www.fasttech.com/search/3099-E-Cigarettes?magnets

i can use it. just have to take my hit and unscrew it quickly or it will just keep burning.

That's not good. If you could make it to a hardware store and can find a washer about the size of the magnet you need replaced, you may be able to magnetize the steel washer enough by rubbing it on a strong magnet repeatedly. You may be able to find a strong magnet at the hardware store to do this with and not even buy the magnet.

If you get the washer magnetized enough it's just a matter of fitting it into your device oriented properly to repel the good magnet.

It really will only cost some time and the price of a steel washer if it works. Cheers.

EDIT...bad idea, no joy there,srry.

That washer idea is pretty good if u can get it to magnetize, it is def possible I have done it with screws and what not but now that I think of it, that won't make the washer a magnet, it will only magnetize it meaning it will only stick to another magnet not create something that will repel or stick(unless to a real magnet). Ur best bet wud to get a magnet to replace it or another mod wud work of course
