USB Port Cover

[Amethyst_Star]

Would it be okay to just remove the cover for the USB port on the eVic? It's a hard black plastic cover. Both my husband and I are having problems with it opening up and closing it back up. My husband wants to rip his off, but I told him to wait and see what others have to say about it. IDK if it would cause problems with the head or not. TIA!

It's okay i guess, my friend lost the USB port cover too, he never got any problem, i think pbusardo, lost the USB port cover too when he reviewed evic

pbusardo RIPPED his cover off because it annoyed him so much, lol. He said it was ok, although you are exposing the usb port to dust and dirt (not like our laptops, oh no!)

Thank you for your help. I have never had issues with my electronics that have their ports exposed. I'll have to search YouTube for the review you've mentioned!

Hubby ended up ripping his off, but he's able to put it back in. I could only find rubber micro usb covers for cell phones, and they didn't look like they would fit the eVic.

They are a pain in the ..... There are replacement covers out there for, don't remember exactly where but they do exist. Like mentioned earlier as long as You are not in a dusty/dirty place shouldn't be a problem. As for me I have back-up batteries so I don't use it to re-charge. Also I don't use the MVR so the only time I will need to access the port would be for updates. So as for Me I am thankful it is hard to get out as it won't be flapping around all the time.

Thanks. I might just have to get a couple more batteries for it. I only used the MVR, once for the update and to program it when I first got it.

It's a little stiff at first but with time it gets easier to lift up and put back in. Just use the tip of you fingernail and lift.. then turn it to the side. When you want to put it back in, line it up and push down from the top of the cover and it will snap in place. Easy peasy!

I don't have nails so I use a toothpick to lift it out, but then it's only for updates.

Thanks, JoAnn! I just hate how it's the same color as the control head! I have to use my reading glasses to see it!

I didn't have a battery charger when I first got the eVic. Now that I have one, I don't have to bother with using the usb port... just switch out the batteries.

The batteries and charger are on my list for the next time I shop for vaping supplies!
