Pull the brass pin out. then stick a small screwdriver in and pry. its just press fit. I have become a master at these. et me know if you have any questions on them.
If you use them with stacked batts or a kick turned up all the way yeah they are screwing up because the wire is soooo thin. Once you replace the wire with standard mod wire your golden.
The other issue with the bolt is that the positive connecter spins this looks like a nice feature but what most people dont know is that it has a thin ... wire soldered to it. It's only going to spin so much then snap. I have a fix for this if the OP is interested I will go into detail on that.

Yea but on the other hand if your handy you can pick one up for $37 for crystal clear vaping then spend about $1 or 2 to rewire it and have a really decent mod.

I used plyers and grabbed the center pin pulled slowly cap and all came out. I used a Master appliance microtorch to soften the hot glue. pulled the hot glue out in chunks, pushed the switch from the back out the hole and pulled out the rest of the hot glue. Removed the wires and solderer on my own. Done in like 15 mins. Simple
I guess your time is worth ZERO $.
But I imagine you would end up with a PV that vapes as well as any GG made.Mine died without stacking batts. The 510 plug threads just got worn out (after 2 months !) and the switch died. I'll just have to rewire it, I guess.
BTW, putting the assembly in a cup of hot water for 30 seconds will soften the glue enough to get the switch out.
Done repairing it. Thanks for the tips
I had a bit of trouble fitting a 510 plug from MADVAPEs, the diameter must be slightly different. But it works now

Can you put up step by step pics on how to rewire these and the stuff I will need to do it? I wouldn't know where to start

It goes from positive terminal to a pin on the switch, off the other switch pin to the center of the 510 connector. Basically in a line
+ terminal ---------Switch---------Center 510 connector
So I should be prepared to replace the cheap wire soon as I have had my Bolt for over a month? LOL, Sweet! Sounds easy enough though..... Any other problems after that? I bought the Bolt because it was so cheap at CCV and I figured it would be a pretty straight forward mod for me to learn to fix and maintain being a complete noob. Can't wait for it to break so I can fix it!! hehehe

Just use a little thicker wire. Probably worth it to pick up a horn switch as well. If your not good with soldering and desoldering then pick up a 510 connector.
Don't forget to check for short circuits.. Use your continuity tester before you start using your mod.

What size wire would I need to replace the thin wire that came with it?? Would you recommend a 20 gauge wire?
