You funny wombat! We don't 'love' that your screen broke. There is no symbol that says 'that really sucks, but we are thinking of you and hope you can find a solution'
Well there’s $110 gone.

I just broke my drone screen yesterday. Really need to think about putting a protector over it.
Easy repair though and scrrrns are cheap. Shouldn’t be an issue as long as you have the right driver heads.

There is no really sad icon
.Was it really cold outside? If the mod had been dropped or bashed at some point previously, the thermal shock could have been too much.
Get yourself some small trays for when you are disassembling your mod, so that all the innards don't roll across the table or be knocked off by pets. If you have some styrofoam, that makes a great medium for pushing small screws into, and you can group them by where they came out. Double sided tape can also be used for this. A mobile phone "spudger" is also useful, if parts of the case are snap fit in places. BlueTak is useful as well, you can put a dab on the screwdriver head and drop the screws into awkward places.
Do the repair if possible in a place without nylon or wool carpets, any static discharge can potentially fry the electronics. If you are feeling really paranoid, use an earth strap.
Take copious photos and notes.
Good luck
:/ well that’s too bad. The fix does seem to be easy. I wasn’t aware it was a separate part. Figured I’d have to replace the pcb, and on this device the pcb is like 90% of the cost of the device.
I got a full set of torx bits so I’m not worried about those. Worst comes to worse I can jam some chewing gum or something in one of the holes and take it to the hardware store to get the right bit size. My only worry is that they glued something down and I’m going to have to play Dremel games getting it open and then have to figure out how to close it up again. The problem with glue is it’s often structural. You can’t just leave things open you have to reglue them again. Epoxy putty maybe. Cross that bridge when I come to it.
Vapecige VTX200TC squonk. It’s basically a boxer made using actual cast plastic that’s colored all the way through for 1/3rd the price. Hard to beat better quality and lower price at the same time. Do wish it had a cover over the screen though. Oh well. I know to fix that now.
Gnarrgh! Just got an email from evolv saying the replacement screen is an age restricted poduct(?!) and that I have to go through their age verification system which claims my age is not correct (more?!?!) so apparently they can’t process my order.

Well if you’re in the mood for that this article just presented itself on my phone. Left me cackling

Well that is just bizarre. I hope you get it sorted Monday.
Yep. Might have something to do with me using PayPal. I don’t do it a lot but the button was right there.
Sorry, I called them and told them you were 14 year old nerd trying to hack together a DNA driven Juul in your mother's basement, to sell to the cool kids in your junior high. Should I not have told them that?Gnarrgh!

According to WECSOG (Wile E. Coyote School of Gunsmithing) "There is no problem that can't be made worse with a Dremel". I would suppose mods are in the same realm. Good luck.
My understanding is they won’t be released for 19 more days. I suppose it’s not impossible, but I suspect it more likely that anyone ordering an “in stock” mod will experience strangely slow shipping times totaling a bit over 2 weeks.

They have them and ready to ship.
I suspect the "large" orders made by vendors were shipped first, but don't really know.
LOL, use the shipping calculator, it will come out to $4.68 for Priority in USTotal cost $42+ That’s a lot of shipping for a part they want $11 for.
Thanks though
