smowell screw/magnet

[Deleted]

Anyone put magnets on the battery cover? Or know what, where, when size screws?

Magnets don't look practical to me @spikeyfridge. I think, but only think, the screws are 1.6 gauge by 2mm length. 2mm gauge are too big. Trouble is that the originals have very short "heads", so standard allen screws jut out. I have only one screw in and it#s holding ok. If that goes I'm just going to superglue the bugger on.

I get you! Lost a screw putting battery in but one holds well. I'll find it eventually

I did put a warning up about this some time ago, those are tiny screws, very easy to lose.

Also you need to be very careful not to strip the threads.

One last recommendation is to sand off the plating on he bottom cap where the screws go through to avoid a poor connection and with a small screwdriver, scrape away the well of the screws to also help make a better connection. Lastly scrape away he plating where the negative end of the battery touches the bottom plate.

Daren't take the bugger apart again!!

Is that not just for the Smok DiscoDes? The Smowell doesn't seem to have the power down problem that the Smok had.

I had the same thing with my Smowell DPV 50

Mine complains it has a 'weak battery' when it's about 60% charged, and seemingly randomly reduces power.
