if the answer to the above is yes, then are you using the ribbon to lift the batteries out ?

if the answer is yes, then the problem is the ribbon, the correct method for removal to stop the scraping is to push the battery upwards (against the spring loaded connector) whilst simultaneously lifting it.

although the evic VTC mini is less likely to damage the batteries the connectors can have burs (sharp spots) that catch on the batteries and cause the damage, its possible to smooth them off with a bit of wet and dry but good practice ot not use the ribbon,

as to the damaged batteries, you can get heat shrink wrap link on the cheap to cover over the damage and follow this video to apply it with your hair dryer faster safer and more long lasting than electrical tape,

@johanino ahh well now the cost of a half decent one isn't cheap that's true, and the fluid costs around £9/bottle, but you can get sleeves from ebay for under £3 delivered in a couple of dayslink

if its a dodgy glue job then cut the excess off with a knife would probably be simpler but probably not very neat,

you could sort it out by using an ultrasonic cleaner but you might damage the paint finish if there's any scratch's on it, however if you use a silicone case that shouldn't matter too much and if your using something like the sea clean fluid it should shift the glue (it wont work with just water) and that would then leave you with the cover slide and probably a pair of magnets to reattach, however a bit of time and some care to get the job done right (small blob in the middle of the magnet hole) should leave you with a nice serviceable mod after

the new limitless unit looks less of a faff to work on although it too has the same problem of just o-rings holding it all together www.gearbest.com/rebuildable-atomizers/pp_360325.html?54525

I think that for being travel friendly I would want to see one that screws together, but was as simple to build and use as the limitless / maybe in another few generations one will comes out that's designed for the average joe to use /

well their public health branch is 50% funded by the pharma industry and there are more pharma related industries incorporated in Eire than any other business type (super low tax rate deals and all that) so whilst the countries total income might not be made up of pharma related businesses paying tax the statement I made before isn't wrong, its just not as broadly applicable as you thought /

but the good doctor alluded too has proclaimed many times he doesn't have any because theres no proper research available and so to protect the children he has been campaigning for a complete ban ......

I expect them to enact a ban on vaping sales within Ireland from may 2017 with a transposition of the remainder of the TPD as is enacted direct given the lack of information and the time scale at hand, they will then amend and produce policies that either fly in the face of or comply with the e-cig side of the TPD, primarily due to the fact half their income is from big pharma related companies many of the arrangements though are under investigation by the EC and the ECB for legislative irregularities

time will tell but I wouldn't be surprised if that's the road they take, funny thing is they wont ban sales from outside Eire because it would be impossible to police given their open boarder with NI and their successive inability to police it in any effective way for decades before it was formally opened up.

of course the new government will make policies that might change things in the months after the initial totalitarian ban is announced but only if htye get a new health minister and chief surgeon, the ones they had in the lead up to the disruption caused by recent elections have been complete ideologues totally against nicotine consumption in any form and were pushing for complete bans ....
