V2 Click Buttons broken

[fisher]

I have had my Vamo for about three months and love it. It has basically given me great service, is easy to use, feels good in my hand, and works great with my devices. Recently the two small control click buttons basically collapsed and no longer click. They still work when I press them, however they no longer return to their upright positions. Is this a common problem with the older models and will they eventually fail completely. It started with the buttons sticking even though I have not spilled anything on them like juice and then the click mechanisms failed.

Sounds like it's time to take it apart and see what going on inside:

There was one time I dropped my lavatube...(I know, it's not a Vamo, but I have one). And when I picked it up the fire button wasn't clicky anymore, but it still worked. Well I had a can of compressed air. That dust remover in a can. I used the air in a can and blew the inside of the mod from where the battery goes. And it worked.

It could be dust trapped inside making the buttons stick. Maybe try this before having to take apart your Vamo. And if you're not comfortable with the dust remover in a can, then maybe an air compressor could work.

I tried the compressed air and while it pushed the button back out the click still does not work. I may have to try the caveman.

Same issue with the bosses VAMO....of course she dropped it...the right sided little button no longer clicks...it's more of a "touch sensitive" button now.

I tried to pull the top off the VAMO, I was unsuccessful. Guy in video makes it look so dang easy. Maybe I need a bigger Hammer
