Can anyone advise me on how to get the innards out of a Vamo?.......I've got the top off, but can't see how to remove the circuit board & bits..........one of the wires needs re-soldering & one of the smaller buttons needs looking at.

Remove the semicircular bit of plastic on the opposite side of the screen.
You ma need to prize it out with screwdriver/tweezers.
Once that is out, the board should come out easy.
Make sure you catch all the buttons though, as they'll fall out as well!

like fred said get a box a tuppawere type is fine hold vamo in it I use a small jewellers screwdriver hold vamo between thumb and fingers with thumb on the screen look down the vamo there is a black plastic half pipe you need it out so wiggle it out with a small screwdriver or tweezers watch you don't chip your board once the pipe is out it will all fall to bits thats why you need the box reassembly is simple as the pipe holds it all together
