Sigh, dropped my new Ego twist - needs surgery due to internal damages when head popped off

I posted about this over in the battery issues forum but not many viewers in that forum. Can you experts please take a look at the post and tell me where I need to reconnect the wire? I placed some photos on Imageshack so that they would be full size and you can see the loose wire and circuit board. I would be ever so grateful for any advice!

(EDIT) The wire attaches to the inside of the head piece like a ground wire. I am in the process of using some JB-Weld to re-attach the metal head piece to the battery tube. Maybe won't look so great but it vapes just like it always did so I am happy. Thanks for all the suggestions, I never thought about it attaching to other than the circuit board.

the best you can do is try it with a quick tack solder and if it works solder it better. but it doesnt look like there is any solder on that wire or the leads on the board. im almost thinking it came from the underside of the button

I know you're bummed but as cheap as they are wouldn't it be easier to order a new one ? BTW I am NOT mechanically inclined at all.

Well I actually have a VAMO on the way but I really liked this device and planned to use it as a backup. I wish I were more knowledgeable about electronics myself. The ecig is the first thing I have ever been able to successfully quit analogs with and I want to make sure to never be without just in case the tobacco devil tries to tempt me yet again.
