Man I am frustrated... Got my Maxi kit on saturday and the vendor didnt send the cartos or the 808 adapter and all I have are 808's! Arrrrgghhh.
Lets just say the batteries are fully charged.

Ha... My paranoia and over preparedness paid off... An order for carts and adapters from another vendor came in this AM and I am now rocking the RoughStack! Sorry for the nothing post, but nobody cares around here and I am so stoked!

I really enjoy(ed) mine as well. Right now the switch assembly is sitting disassembled on my bench waiting for surgery...
How long did it take to wear it out?
I am guessing that you are going to just solder on a new switch?
I havent taken it apart to see how it is put together yet.
Pretty handy with basic soldering here, so I am encouraged.
Are you buying a replacement from madvapes, or...?
Would be nice to know they are available elsewhere, or that we could even put a different switch in if necessary / desired.

The switch is fine. I have the older version of the RoughStack that used a spring instead of a soldered wire to the positive terminal of the atty connection. The straw melted and created a short. I plan on replacing the spring with wire. Just haven't gotten around to it yet... I've had it for roughly 7 months.
Ahh...
In my "research" about the 'stack I heard about this...
What do you use while the RoughStack is 'in the shop'?

Depends on what I grab. 
Darwin, Bolt, VMOD, T-Rex, DIY 5v box mod, DIY VV passthru...
ETA: That's probably why I haven't fixed the RS yet.

Woah! ...quite a stable! I am a total gearhead / compulsive. I imagine that I will be getting more toys eventually.
I promised myself I would slow down after I got the RS.

I said the same thing... Gotta have backups for the backups though.
I have another VV mod that uses 26500 batts coming soon and a Zenesis in March. Maybe I'll slow down after that... Maybe...

Yep! They're big, C-size cells. I'm hoping they'll last a couple days between charges.
No link, JimmyJet. A friend is building it for me. Sorry.
Thanks, sounds like a good friend.
Question:
If I take the cartomizer or atty off, and the switch is activated in my pocket, does the battery discharge?
I am guessing no...

So here is my problem and a suggestion. About 6 months ago my button on my RS broke. Didn't get around to fixing cause I had a provari on the way. So today I was looking at the website an the switchs with the spring was sold out and they had hard wired ones. That's great, probaly get a better connection. But then I read the reviews and saw people were having trouble soldering them to the center pin. My suggestion: sell them pre soldered. From the looks of it the connection wher it connects to the board is just crimped on and then covered with heat shrink. Any one could do that. So sell the wire with a center pin soldered on one end. Throw in a bushing for the center pin incase the original gets damaged. And have the push connection loose the be installed by the user.
What do you think?

Not sure, Murdock Ruml.
MadVapes sells the RS switch with a soldered wire... All the user has to do is solder said wire to the atty connector.
ETA: Read that wrong... All the user has to do is remove the nut holding the switch in place and install the new "disc" complete with switch...
